Environmental performance

For more than 15 years, the Ortec Industrie Fos-sur-Mer agency has developed recognized expertise in water treatment and sludge dewatering, further strengthening Ortec Industrie’s capabilities in: :

  • Hydrocarbon streams 
  • Contaminated streams 
  • Hazardous waste 

With their mobile units, our experts operate throughout France, providing services directly at customer sites, industrial facilities, wastewater treatment plants, and local authority sites. 

The purpose of sludge dewatering is to reduce the volume of liquid sludge. 

This volume reduction helps lower treatment and transportation costs. It also supports waste recovery (sludge and aqueous residues).

ASSESSMENT AND ANALYSIS

Assessment and Consulting

Our team is available to support you throughout your project and answer any questions you may have about the different stages of the worksite.

Étude et analyse - échantillon

Analysis / Diagnosis / Sizing

To determine the most suitable dewatering or treatment solution, samples must first be collected. 

These samples are used to:

  • Carry out analyses, including flash point and pollutant testing 
  • Verify coagulation and flocculation performance 
  • Estimate the volume reduction achieved through dewatering 
  • Determine the recommended treatment method 
  • Identify suitable disposal or recovery channels 

Project proposal

Our teams then present a solution tailored to your needs and remain available to discuss it with you.

Water Treatment

The objective is to remove contaminants from the water so that it can be reused in production circuits.

This is achieved through the following processes: 

  • Suspended solids treatment 
  • Hydrocarbon separation 
  • Dissolved pollutant treatment 
  • Stripping 
  • Filtration 

Waste management

Collection Containers

Our team provides personalized support, adapting the setup and management of collection containers to the specific requirements of each site.

Transportation and Tracking

We operate multiple types of equipment to meet each request efficiently, including ADR- and ATEX-compliant equipment. 

A Waste Tracking Form (BSD) is issued for every waste shipment. 

We help all our customers make effective use of  Trackdéchets, the hazardous waste tracking platform. 

Waste Recovery

Our teams continuously identify new treatment and disposal channels for the waste generated, always prioritizing recovery whenever possible. 

The Ortec Group operates its own treatment channels: 

  • Valortec, specializing in hazardous waste 
  • Valorterre, specializing in contaminated soil
