Rehabilitation of a former laundry plant in Dresden

Bauer Resources impressively demonstrated how to convert a contaminated site into an unpolluted space in Dresden’s Laubegast district. On the 870 m² Schoof premises, the experts excavated and drilled for all they’re worth to free the polluted soil from all traces of the former chemical cleaning facility. A total of approximately 3,500 m³ of soil were excavated and 6,000 m³ of contaminated soil material were replaced to a depth of 15 m using large-scale boreholes, and 4,800 t of contaminated material were properly disposed of. Additionally, a groundwater treatment plant was installed to clean approximately 60 m³ of polluted groundwater per hour. All this work was carried out under the strictest safety precautions, as safety was the top priority.
