At Earthfix, we are committed to finding innovative and sustainable solutions for some of the largest environmental issues facing our planet, including food, energy, water, and waste. Our waste management division plays a crucial role in this effort, as we work to create a circular economy that reduces waste and promotes sustainable development.

As part of our waste management efforts, Earthfix recycles a range of materials, including concrete, topsoil, clean fill, unsuitable soil, green waste, and non-contaminated vacuum excavation mud. These materials are processed in our state-of-the-art facilities to produce a range of high-quality products, including concrete blocks and crushed concrete, as well as organic soil products.

Our innovative approach to waste management helps to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills, which not only reduces our carbon footprint but also helps to conserve natural resources and reduce the cost of waste management. By converting waste materials into useful products, we are helping to create a more sustainable future for generations to come.

In addition to our waste management efforts, Earthfix also offers a range of other sustainable solutions for food, energy, and water, including renewable energy production and water conservation. Our commitment to sustainability and our commitment to providing innovative solutions make us a leader in the effort to create a more sustainable and cost-effective future for our planet.

Why is water so important?

Out of all the world’s water only 2.5% of it is freshwater and out of that freshwater 99% of it is frozen or underground leaving only 0.025% of it accessible to all living things on the Earth. It is vital that we do our part by recycling water to the greatest extent to create more dependable and locally controlled water sources and provide significant environmental benefits.

Earthfix will use effective dewatering solutions to recycle Class A water from vacuum excavation muds. This solution will allow up to 100% of the material from the muds to be recovered, processing the waste practically and cost-effectively. We will also extract the water from our green energy plant’s process once we have generated energy from it.

The recycled water will be reused to:

• Fill/refill outgoing trucks with industry compliant recycled water ensuring millions of litres of portable water is not taken from the water main, ensuring extremely sustainable reuse of water
• Wash down the vacuum trucks as well as other various machinery
• In our recycling processes
• And dust suppression,

Conforming with the QLD recycled water management plan. This enables a broader range of more difficult waste streams to be processed. Our customers will also highly benefit from the added value of utilising a sustainable water source and at the same time save costs and improve transport time by filling up the trucks with recycled water at the same facility they are disposing of the mud.

The project has the flexibility to improvements, if necessary, to increase the scope of usage such as unrestricted irrigation. Earthfix will provide a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable disposal and waste recycling that is not widely available.

The water project is 60% completed and next is to begin the final digging of our water reserve pond in the coming months, which will bring us to approximately 80% complete.
