Smart Solutions for Compliance: Leveraging Technology to Model and Prevent Pollution Incidents in line with C736 and BAT Standards

The environmental regulators sole interest is preventing water pollution with little concern for your budget restraints or disruption to your business. Environmental agencies often make recommendations that will undoubtedly address the issue but may involve dated techniques, technology or extensive civil works. During this presentation David will explain how using CIRIA 736 our evidenced based risk assessment (Spill Mapping) empowers our customers to accurately evidence the outcomes of various disaster scenarios for their specific site. With this information a cost effective containment policy can be implemented. David will also explain how poor containment valve choice and maintenance can render even the most robust containment scheme unfit for purpose and demonstrate how to dead stop drainage (flow) in seconds.
