Environmental Services Waste Management Solutions
Rinchem has many customers for which it performs ongoing hazardous chemical recycling and waste disposal services throughout North America. Our strategic partnership with Veolia Environmental Services, one of the largest waste management corporations in the United States, allows Rinchem to leverage efficiencies of scale that drive superior cost advantage and excellent customer service.
Rinchem also utilizes our Chem-Star® warehousing, transportation and waste management systems to provide customers with a fully integrated chemical management solution. Rinchem Company, Inc. can provide our clients with complete on-site services for the sampling, packaging, labeling, manifesting, and transportation of various hazardous and non-regulated wastes. All services rendered by Rinchem are in compliance with the applicable federal, state, and local regulations, and all Rinchem technicians are trained in accordance with OSHA requirements (29 CFR 1910.120.)
The process for ongoing chemical waste management, as well as some features and benefits, are listed below:
Waste Collection
Waste chemicals are collected from all listed facilities. Rinchem and a facility representative mutually agree on scheduled collection times, destruction methods, emergency procedures, site access, and other conditions that may be pertinent. All waste chemicals are classified for shipment by trained field chemists.
Waste Profiling
All EPA approved disposal facilities require submission of a waste profile sheet, which characterizes a waste stream. The profile sheet is based on Knowledge of Process information and/or analysis, and may require an accompanying sample of material. Rinchem completes the Waste Profile Sheet, presents it to a representative of your company for signature, and negotiates acceptance at the disposal facility.
Manifesting
Our service to hazardous waste generators includes the preparation of the appropriate state hazardous waste manifests. Utilizing Rinchem's customized database enables us to prepare waste profiles, manifests and land disposal restriction forms for our client’s review and signature.
Benefits of Rinchem's Customized Database:
- Assures continuity of information and the completion of forms for ongoing waste streams
- An electronic copy of the client's data is retained in our database and can be accessed by manifest number
- Tracking manifest copies from point of waste pick up through point of disposal
- End of the year generator report is a valuable service to our clients assisting them in their waste compliance efforts
Disposal
Any waste received by Rinchem on behalf of your company is recycled, treated, or disposed of by approved EPA methods, and is handled in compliance with the existing operational permits and restrictions governing each Treatment, Storage And Disposal Facility (TSDF) Selection.
Liability Protection
Warranties, indemnification, and insurance coverage for our clients’ protection are provided (starting when our field technicians arrive on site) during the loading, transportation, treatment, and disposal tasks. Waste is transported directly to the Rinchem Part B permitted TSDF and then to the final disposal destination to ensure minimal potential for liability.
Quality Assurance
Final approval for acceptance of your company’s waste is the responsibility of the waste disposal facility; however, packaged waste is not removed from any of your facilities until final approval has been granted by the Rinchem Part B permitted TSDF or to the selected disposal facility. This process assures efficient removal and disposal of waste streams.
