Waste Water Treatment Plant on Google Earth
CQA undertook a turnkey design build project for a food producer in Yorkshire with the works being completed in January 2018, however only recently has Google Earth been updated to show it in all its glory.
The project was one of the first of its kind where CQA designed a wholly bespoke containment system to allow a low cost and low visual impact system to be constructed. Furthermore, compared to a traditional concrete structure it allowed the system to be constructed in a 4 month window (between September & January) over a fairly dreadful period of weather, when compared to a traditional system it was not only less than half the cost but took much less than half the time to complete.
The containment system comprised a triple composite lining system, utilising NAUE Bentofix X2 coated GCL to prevent cation exchange, and a full leak detection system.
CQA undertook all design, project management, civil's and earthworks construction and landscaping, with Greener Waste Technology and Adaptive Controls designing and installing the fully automated monitoring system.
12 months on from completion and the system is working flawlessly meeting its discharge consents without fail.
We hope you agree its a thorough & tidy job. Please feel free to contact us for further details.

Largest Hazardous Waste Landfill in Middle East
The largest hazardous waste landfill in Middle East has been officially closed with members of the UN and Kuwait Oil Company Senior Staff visiting the site to inspect the completed works. The landfill which is the largest haxzardous waste landfill in the region holds over 2,000,000m3 of oil contaminated sand which has been removed from oil lakes as part of the worlds largest remediation project referred to as KERP (Kuwait Environmental Remediation Programme).
Construction of the facility was undertaken between 2014 and 2015 with closure works taking place in autumn 2017. The landfill is designed to international standards and comprises a double composite geosynthetic lining system along with and mineral lining system. The facility is fully capped and restored to prevent any ingress of water or escape of vapor and comes complete with a bio-filter system to allow natural venting and scrubbing of any releases in a controlled and managed way.
