Industrial Facility Decontamination/Restoration

GE River Works Plant Decontamination And Disassembly Operations
Since 1991, Maxymillian Technologies (MT) has consistently completed a series of decontamination and disassembly projects at GE's Aircraft Engines River Water Works Plant in Lynn, MA.

Selected Project Descriptions:

Multi-Phase Decontamination & Water Treatment Installation
The first project was a three-year, multi-phase building remediation that included PCB & asbestos abatement, equipment decontamination and removal, water treatment system (1,000 gallons per minute) installation, and cleaning and closure of numerous sumps, conduits and tunnels.

Building 64 Project Development Laboratory Basement
MT decontaminated PCB contaminated brick walls and concrete flooring to less than 100 ppm. MT encapsulated the exposed brick walls and applied epoxy to floors to prevent water seepage. PCB water was treated using MT's mobile water treatment system and discharged via GE's NPDES permit.

Saltwater Conduits Closure
MT closed out selected saltwater conduits and pipes, and decontaminated PCB surfaces and piping. MT collected and treated water & washwater from all operations with MT's on-site Series III system.

Building 64 - Five Remaining Areas
MT disassembled, decontaminated, and removed PCB-contaminated equipment and its associated piping from five areas in Building 64. MT's scope of work involved: maintaining site safety measures, installing temporary decontamination areas and waste storage areas, draining and containing fluids, disassembling equipment and associated piping, decontaminating contaminated equipment and loading into roll-offs for off-site disposal by others.

Bay 19
MT remediated a large PCB-contaminated area at the GE Lynn Bay 19 Gear Plant. Site work included: scarifying the floor in the production & generation areas, cleaning the floor with surfactant and chemical extractant, and wiping/cleaning the walls of production area. Stonhard installed new mortar, floor coatings, and encapsulant. MT then decontaminated all equipment, restored the site and demobilized.
