Services

Nothing is wasted,
everything is transformed.

We provide high quality services in the field of environmental remediation and put the health and safety of our employees and the communities in which we operate in the first place.

SetCar aims at an integrated and developed approach around the principles of the circular economy and the implementation of sustainable solutions to environmental problems. The company provides a full range of services, from chemical waste analysis or the creation of new technologies to the disposal of hazardous waste or bringing the contaminated site to its original stage. To this end, SetCar has established strong partnerships with the Directa Plus Group and the GSP Group.

Integrated management of industrial waste and pollution

The process involves safe decontamination and depollution of the area, certified on-site analysis, professional waste logistics. Thus, toxic and hazardous waste is collected, packaged, labeled, transported, temporarily stored and disposed of, including:

PCB oil electrical equipment (capacitors, transformers, etc.)

soils contaminated with hydrocarbons, heavy metals, lindane, phenols, various volatile substances, etc.

expired chemicals

galvanic baths, sludge, cyanide, varnish and paint waste, pesticides

heavy metals and their compounds, asbestos, mineral wool

waste fuels, oils and used emulsions

industrial wastewater, solvents, waste acids, various wastewater solutions, etc.

Technology and innovation

SetCar has put into operation the first mobile indirect thermal desorption (ITD) installation in Romania.

The installation separates volatile toxic substances from contaminated soils at temperatures higher than the boiling point of these substances. It is intended for decontamination of soils contaminated with HCH, mercury, various volatile products, phenols, PCBs, etc.

The major advantage of ITD is that the contaminated soil does not come into direct contact with the hot gases in the process. The entire gas circuit is made under vacuum, which eliminates the possibility of gas leaks into the atmosphere.

The mobile indirect heat dissipation system is equipped with all the measuring and control devices necessary for real-time monitoring and adjustment of flow parameters.
SetCar has also put into operation a mobile direct thermal desorption (DTD), used mainly in the treatment of soils contaminated with hydrocarbons and other pollutants with volatile components.

The major advantage of direct thermal desorption is higher productivity compared to indirect thermal desorption. This advantage is due both to the fact that the contaminated soil comes into direct contact with the flue gases in the desorber and to the fact that the petroleum products in the soil maintain the combustion, improving the efficiency of the installation.

Grafysorber® Technology

As a result of the strong partnership with Directa Plus, one of the most important worldwide pristine graphene nanoplatelets producers and suppliers, SetCar utilises Grafysorber® for oil decontamination activities.

Specifically designed to enhance the speed of clean-up operations in case of oil spills, Grafysorber® is made of super-expanded graphite, capable of adsorbing any type of oil dispersed in water or within a soil matrix.

No matter the oil concentration, viscosity or environmental conditions of the contaminated sites, Grafysorber® proved during exhaustive testing to outperform the competition, adsorbing oil up to 16 times better than traditional adsorbing products

 SetCar is currently utilising Grafysorber® in several decontamination projects for major players within the Oil&Gas industry, obtaining outstanding results. SetCar is willing to further demonstrate the superior capabilities of this material to interested parties as SetCar is the only provider to offer a full oil-contaminated water treatment service based on Grafysorber® production and utilisation.

Key performances of Grafysorber® are:

  • Its utilisation as key technology for treatment of injection waters to reduce the oil content to under 2 ppm;
  • Higher and faster adsorption capacity (up to 100 times its own weight in loose form);
  • Effective both in high and low concentrations of hydrocarbons;
  • Effective in case of oil slicks and iridescence;
  • Certified absence of toxicity for human and environment following the intervention;
  • Absence of flammability;
  • Possibility of recovering adsorbed oil through simple mechanical processes;
  • Reduction of waste production;
  • On-site and on-demand production through Mobile Production Unit (MPU);
  • Cost effectiveness.
