The Who, What, Why and How of Containerized Hazwaste Handling
Clean Container Increases Options

Choose whether to reuse, crush, grind or shred. Recycle or dispose scrap. The options will be yours because a cleaner, safer container permits a greater range of disposition choices.

And stack up savings, too: 1) in reduced container replacement costs and 2) in decreased incineration and other disposal charges.

But let's start at the beginning. How do we describe what a PSI multifunctional container handling system can do? For instance...

• Does it provide a controlled environment? Yes.
• Can it increase personnel safety? Yes.
• Does it dehead or uncap? Yes.
• Does it empty containers? Yes.
• Does it separate non-pumpable solids? Yes.
• Can it leak test, if required? Yes.
• Does it wash containers? Yes.
• Does it permit a selection of wash solutions? Yes.
• Does it permit control of solution pressure? Yes.• Does it rinse? Yes.
• Does it recycle rinse water? Yes.
• Is it fully automated? Yes.
• Does it offer a variety of operator interfaces? Yes.
• Does it discharge reusable/recyclable containers? Yes! Yes! Yes!

In fact, there's more. We offer complete, turnkey handling systems. Shredders, crushers, holding tanks and other auxiliary equipment with all the necessary controls and interfaces. Systems that can adapt to almost any container (U.S. DOT, international ITA or other special use containers in most sizes from 1-200 liters).

Just the Facts
The advantage of turning to a company with the experience factor PSI brings to the job: reliability. We've been solving handling problems since 1977. Our first hazardous waste system went into operation in 1983.

Back then, as now, the right solution was not always available using equipment already on the market. So we designed and manufactured our own. We maintain that same innovative spirit today.

Our handling solutions have encompassed projects for generators of nuclear waste, in radioactive inspection applications, industrial applications and for chemical waste generators and handlers. To ensure our equipment meets or exceeds performance requirements, each component in our system is tested in our plant. When feasible the entire system is set up and tested before being released to the field. It's the kind of thoroughness that saves our customers time and money. It's what we've built our reputation on.

The When and Where...
You name it. You tell us the location. You determine the installation start-up date. PSI engineers, project managers and technicians will cooperate with you to meet your targeted date of completion. On time. On spec. On the dollar.Combining efforts with engineering or consulting firms or working directly with the end user. Either way we are committed to furnishing a top quality hazardous waste container handling system that will meet your compliance objectives.

Your confidence will be rewarded with a ruggedly-constructed system built to give years of service. We'll tackle your requirements and stick with you from the conceptual design stage through implementation and operator training. And you will have the assurance that PSI will be around to back up the system with technical support long after startup.
