Soil remediation, French Guyana
Last October, we completed one of our operations for the EDF Pariacabo thermal power plant in Kourou. Several operations were carried out there:
♻️ Biological treatment of soils contaminated by hydrocarbons using the biopile technique,
👷♂️Rehabilitation/sealing of the treatment area by combining a geotextile protection and a geomembrane (extrusion weldings).
We also intervened for the Dégrad-des-Cannes plant from 2018 to 2019 for the same problem. Two types of treatment were then carried out:
♻️ Treatment of the least contaminated soils by biopile
👷♂️ Treatment of the most contaminated soils with calcium oxide
This marks the end of our operations for EDF in this beautiful region! 🦜🌴 Mèrsi Lagwiyan 🦎🚀!
