Environmental Soil Management Companies - ESMI Stay up to date with ESMI news. http://esmicompanies.com The benefit is clear to Community Health Center As was discussed in the “ESMI provides fill material to Community Health Center” (12 July 2010), ESMI donated over 11,000-tons of beneficial use soil(s) to be utilized as sub-base at a site being developed for a Community Health Center in Fort Edward, New York. When ESMI asked Darlene Davoe, Village Trustee and Town Grant Coordinator for Fort Edward, about using beneficial use soils from ESMI she said “The extra benefit of its amazing compaction made the elevation increase of 20' and the retaining wall a much easier process than had been expected. I recommend that anyone in need of clean fill come to you first and I know that they won't be sorry.” “… I think it's important for people to know that this Health Care Facility would not be happening without all of the fill, trucking and support that you all have given to this community.”, Darlene added. ESMI believes that the advocacy of such community efforts is an important business function because without the community, there is no business.

ESMI Companies evaluating Biofuels In an effort to be greener, ESMI Companies (ESMI) is evaluating firing their low temperature thermal desorption (LTTD) units on Biofuels. Biofuels are a wide array of fuels derived from biomass. Some examples of such biomass are wood, grass, charcoal, agricultural wastes, and non-food energy crops.By looking to move to biofuel, ESMI would reduce their carbon footprint and utilize a sustainable alternative energy source. Recently, ESMI has been working with burner manufacturers and energy consultants to evaluate present equipment designs and technology to ensure that the company is moving in an economical and environmentally sound direction.ESMI will keep the news forthcoming.

For many similar operations performing periodic visual opacity monitoring (USEPA method 9) is often the only way to verify baghouse performance. Unfortunately, filter failures are progressive; one tear will result in the erosion of neighboring bags until several failures result in a visible dust plume, when it is usually too late to avoid emergency plant shutdown to locate and repair the damage. In 1999, ESMI installed an Auburn Triboelectric Bag Leak Detector to assure early indication of fabric filter leakage and to pinpoint fault loca-tions within the dust collector. The original system was recently up-graded to Auburn’s newest genera-tion, TRIBO.dsp U3600 Bag Leak Monitor.

All soils thermally treated by ESMI Companies were recycled as backfill on-site. Total project time from set-up to tear-down of the ESMI portable treatment unit was seven months. Soil treatment was concluded within six months of initiating thermal treatment with a majority of the soil treatment occurring within a 4 month timeframe. Soils designated for thermal treatment met all site treatment standards maximizing on-site reuse. ESMI Companies, with offices in Fort Edward, New York and Loudon, New Hampshire, have successfully treated over 4 million tons of contaminated soil since 1992. Soil contaminants have ranged from conventional fuels to manufactured gas plant waste, polychlorinated biphenyls, chlorinated solvents, energetics, and explosive residuals. ESMI Companies can offer on-site thermal treatment technology in addition to treatment offered at fixed facility locations.
