USA 2 (SDS2)

Building on the success of SDS-1, RLC Technologies built a new, higher capacity thermal desorption system for the Tradebe SDS-2 expansion in 2014. The unit remains in continuous parallel operation with SDS-1 processing RCRA listed waste streams and converting them into saleable products.

The ATDU facility offers waste generators an effective and cost-efficient method for recycling organic solid waste that might otherwise be disposed of. Prior to this technology, most organic hazardous waste solids were incinerated in a process designed to destroy the organic content by driving off volatiles and burning excess gases. Alternatively, the ATDU technology extracts the organics from hazardous waste solids to recover viable chemical products.

Most organic solids can be processed, including paint waste, solvent soaked rags, resins, polymers, production debris, refinery waste and discared commercial products. So long as the material is recycled, the process is exempt from Resource Conservation and Recovery Act rules. Rather, once the material has been processed, the generator receives a Certificate of Recycling that affirms the materials have been recycled. The generator then has no further liability.

There are many benefits utilizing this process for organic solid waste. By virtue of receiving a Certificate of Recycling, the material is removed from the solid waste definition in 40CFR261. Putting potentially hazardous chemicals back into industrial process, the environmental friendly process achieves waste minimization and recycling goals by turning waste into a valuable product for industry. Recycled products are now used in numerous industries throughout the US in place of virgin chemicals. The system is even capable of processing materials contained in steel drums and containers, producing recyclable scrap metals for resale.
