Waste Treatment
Knox Associates


There is an increased demand for waste treatment and pre-treatment due to the diversion of waste from landfill. We have extensive experience of the design, permitting and environmental impact of merchant treatment plants for hazardous liquid wastes, and on both anaerobic digestion and aerobic processes for non-hazardous liquid wastes containing high concentrations of degradable organic matter.

Our consultancy services include:

  • design and operation of liquid waste treatment facilities
  • assessment of the suitability of individual waste types for treatment
  • assessment of appropriate loading rates for biological treatment plants
  • assessment of global warming impacts of waste treatment methods for MSW
