Samex Offers the Highest Level of Sustainability

In Hazardous Waste Recycling

 
 
We have the CAPACITYEXPERIENCE and RELIABILITY to fulfill your hazardous waste recycling needs!

 

Solvent Distillation

We prefer solvent distillation to recycle flammable liquids or halogenated solvents. With our state-of-the-art equipment, we follow a circular economy model. The high-purity product can be sold back to industry or returned to the generator, extending its life from hazardous waste.

Flammable Liquids Fuel Blending

Flammable Liquids Fuel Blending

Fuel blending is a common practice. Utilizing a cement kiln that is just 90 miles south of San Diego, CA, is extraordinary! Generators can only achieve that level of carbon reduction by utilizing a company that can do Transborder Waste Recycling. Samex Environmental Services is that company.

Flammable Solids Fuel Blending

Converting combustible solid waste into usable energy for cement kilns prevents landfill disposal.By converting Waste to Energy, generators that direct their combustible solids to Samex are conserving natural resources, reducing their carbon footprint, and achieving the highest level of sustainability.

Committed To Excellence In The Mangement Of Hazardous Waste In Harmony With The Environment And Human health

Our experienced operations team transforms the materials we receive into liquid and solid waste-derived fuels, serving as alternative fuel sources to displace coal and natural gas in cement kilns. This approach offers a secure and efficient means of harnessing the energy potential of the waste, contributing to the preservation of our planet's limited natural resources.

  • Petroleum Distillates
  • Aerosols
  • Commodity Packs
  • Flammable/Corrosives
  • Mixed Flammable Liquids with <30% Water

Our experienced operations team transforms the materials we receive into liquid and solid waste-derived fuels, serving as alternative fuel sources to displace coal and natural gas in cement kilns. This approach offers a secure and efficient means of harnessing the energy potential of the waste, contributing to the preservation of our planet's limited natural resources.

Waste that is compatible with Soilds Fuel Blending

 

  • Debris and Rags
  • Personal Protective Equipment
  • Small Plastic Containers
  • Non-Hazardous Solid Waste
  • No metals or Ceramics

 

Combustible solids are received in drums, cubic yard boxes, and roll-off bins. After inspection, the waste is placed on a conveyor that takes it through magnets to remove unwanted metals. Shredded material goes directly into roll-off bins to be transported 90 miles away to the cement kiln.

Waste That Is Viable For Solvent Distillation

 

  • Should be greater than 50% yield
  • Mixed or Single Solvent Flammable Liquids Including:
    • Thinner
    • Alcohols
    • Acetone
    • Methyl Ethyl Ketone
    • Ethyl Acetate
    • Halogenated Solvents
  • Tolling arrangements available

Thanks to our state-of-the-art technology, facilities are not only able to dispose of their waste safely
but can utilize a more cost-effective and environmentally friendly method to process their spent solvents.

Specific Requirements For Exporting Waste To Samex

  • Only waste that can be recycled by the importer can be exported to Mexico
  • The importer is Samex Recycling Technologies (SRT), which is the importer that is going to recycle the waste. The importer accepts generator liability when the waste crosses the border into Mexico.
  • All UN numbers and RCRA codes must be included in the Acknowledgement of Consent (AOC) that is issued by the EPA to the primary exporter.

Proximity Is The Key To Conservation

Proximity to the final destination is the key to conserving natural resources. Diesel fuel contributes to carbon emissions, and the farther the destination, the more fuel is consumed.

For instance, a truck traveling from Los Angeles to the Midwest, where most cement kilns are located,  emits 4,700 pounds of carbon one way. While a trip to Tijuana/Ensenada produces only 750 pounds.

By choosing Samex as the destination, which is closer and offers a transborder option, you can achieve universal goals by reducing your carbon footprint to 7.5 pounds per drum compared to 47 pounds per drum to the Midwest.

Cradle To Grave Responsibility

While most hazardous waste generators are aware that they have responsibilities under this law, many fail to realize that their “complete” cradle-to-grave compliance requirements include storage, transportation and final disposal. This lack of understanding is evidenced by the significant number of fines and penalties levied by government agencies each year upon corporations and organizations within the United States.  

The bottom line is that if you generate hazardous waste, you can and will be held responsible for improper off-site transportation and disposal. 

So where does your responsibility end, and Samex's take over?
