The dosage rate being used is 4 gallons/cubic yard of concrete, and this still delivers a very costeffective alternative to a more expensive, epoxy coating treatment that had previously been applied to concrete tipping slabs in other waste transfer stations.
This growth market offers EdenCrete a major opportunity for significant new business. Evans Concrete, a leading ready-mix supplier in
US Waste Transfer Station Market
The waste transfer station market in USA is estimated to be a
The US waste disposal industry covers a range of applications including hazardous and nonhazardous waste and recyclable materials. Nonhazardous waste includes municipal solid waste, household waste, industrial and commercial waste. Generally waste transfer stations are operated as waste collection points where waste is collected and transferred to long-distance trucks for transport to dedicated disposal facilities
BACKGROUND
EdenCrete is Eden's 100% owned, proprietary carbon-strengthened concrete additive that enhances a wide range of performance characteristics of the concrete including compressive strength, flexural strength, tensile strength, abrasion resistance, reduced permeability, increased modulus of elasticity, and reduced shrinkage, delivering stronger, tougher, more durable and longer lasting concrete.
EdenCrete delivers not only a wide range of performance benefits in concrete, but also delivers economic advantages through many ways, including greater durability and service life for the concrete. Additionally, in applications where fresh concrete has to be pumped under pressure, including in shotcrete or pumping of fresh concrete up high -rise projects, it greatly reduces the friction enabling the required pumping pressure to be reduced, resulting in less wear on the pumps, and safer working conditions due to reduced nozzle pressure being required, which in turn results in cost savings through less wasted concrete resulting from reduced re-bound in the case of shotcrete applications.
One of the primary target markets for EdenCrete is improving the performance of concrete used in the construction and maintenance of concrete roads, bridges and other infrastructure, particularly where it is subject to heavy wear, freeze/thaw weather conditions and/or high levels of added salt. Additionally, it has potential for use in most other concrete applications including high-rise building construction, marine and coastal applications, water storage and pipelines, hardstand areas, warehouses, shotcrete applications and pre-stressed and pre-cast concrete structures and products.
