Emergency Response
K&D has conducted emergency response to accidental spills since it began business in 1974. Spills may occur during a customer’s transportation and transfer of materials, such as petroleum products and industrial chemicals, or as a result from production malfunctions. Successful emergency spill response uses a multi-step approach: assessment, mobilization, containment, cleanup and decontamination. Spills occur at all times of the day and the week. K&D is a 24-hour spill responder. When emergency spills occur, immediate action is crucial. K&D teams are prepared to perform emergency cleanup on land and water.
K&D responded to spill situations by the Ohio EPA, Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, United States Coast Guard and numerous businesses. Each K&D office has dedicated emergency response vehicles standing by for the next call.
Sludge Dewatering & Solidification
K&D tests and evaluates the waste prior to recommending the most cost efficient dewatering and/or solidification techniques. Sludge removal from impoundments or lagoons could involve dredges, environmentally designed crane buckets, filter presses, or a variety of other screening and filtering devices. Projects range in size from several hundred to well over 40,000 cubic yards.
