McBreen Environmental enhance waste processing with CDE technology
Company invests in D:MAX mobile screening and classification unit to improve eco-friendly operations
AS the waste-management industry prioritizes sustainability, McBreen Environmental have been helping more customers achieve their environmental goals while also reducing waste disposal costs with the use of CDE’s innovative D:MAX solution.
With sustainability now central to every executive decision-making, McBreen Environmental have invested in CDE’s latest innovative technology to enhance their eco-friendly operations.
Since 2006, the business, part of the McBreen Group, has provided a comprehensive range of services, including tank cleaning, waste tankering, drain cleaning, and sludge and grease disposal.
Using the latest waste-recycling technologies and state-of-the-art systems available, McBreen Environmental ensure the highest standards of environmental service for customers across Ireland and the UK. With business operations expanding and their customer base growing, the company in recent years has invested in CDE solutions for maximum dewatering of wet waste.
As part of their continued investment in innovative solutions, McBreen Environmental recently purchased CDE’s D:MAX multipurpose solid-liquid separation unit, which has been designed for a wide range of waste applications, from digester cleaning and drilling muds solids separation to gully waste and pumping stations.
One of the key benefits of the D:MAX screening and classification system is its ability to recover up to 90% of materials, significantly lowering disposal costs for McBreen Environmental and their clients. It also includes a dual screening system to remove oversized pieces and grit.
Richard Smith, fleet manager for McBreen Environmental, commented: ‘The main aim for us was to increase production, reduce waste, and be even more efficient. We have the option of moving the D:MAX anywhere in the UK or Ireland to sites. That requires a screening solution. The self-contained nature of the D:MAX allows for rapid deployment and operation for our customers.’
Additionally, the D:MAX can help reduce carbon footprint and transportation costs as its mobility can facilitate processing in situ. In recent years, McBreen Environmental has seen an increased focus on sustainability, with more customers wishing to repurpose waste as highlighted by Breffni Organics, part of the McBreen Group, specialists in converting waste into valuable products.
Noeleen McBreen, account manager for Breffni Organics, explained: ‘We’ve noticed that customers are increasingly prioritizing quality over price when it comes to waste management. What sets us apart in the sustainability space is our commitment to a full-circle approach. Our services encompass everything from waste collection and transportation to processing at our state-of-the-art treatment facility.
‘One of the key differentiators is our advanced screening process, where we carefully separate waste before it undergoes further treatment. After screening, the waste is processed in a centrifuge, transforming it into nutrient-rich compost, which is used for energy crops. This contributes to a sustainable, circular economy. Our focus on quality at every step, from collection to treatment, ensures that we meet the highest sustainability standards.’
