DEDICATED TO WATER-SAVING
SOLUTIONS

good for your business.
good for the environment.


At TIL ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS, we are dedicated to designing and constructing for the future. Our focus is on safeguarding our planet's most precious resource: water. We achieve this by offering solutions for solids removal and cleanup in storm retention ponds, water treatment lagoons, biosolids sewage lagoons, and industrial lagoons.

wait, but why?

Regular cleaning of storm retention ponds is crucial for increasing their retention capacity. This maintenance not only helps in removing accumulated sediments and debris but also eliminates impurities that contribute to foul odors, such as rotting vegetation and bird feces.

Similarly, the proper operation of sewage lagoons within municipalities relies heavily on regular cleaning and the removal of solids. This maintenance is imperative for creating sufficient space within the lagoons for ongoing sewage treatment processes. By ensuring these spaces are clear, municipalities can maintain effective sewage treatment operations and prevent overflow issues.


SURVEY THAT SH*T

Bathymetry is the study of underwater depth in oceans, lakes, and reservoirs. Using specialized surveys, they measure water depth and map underwater features safely and efficiently, providing valuable data for making informed decisions about water bodies. We recommend Aquavision Canada, experts in lagoon, lake & pond surveys and underwater inspections; water, sediment & volume calculations.


OUR HIGH-CAPACITY CENTRIFUGES ARE DESIGNED EXPLICITLY FOR DEWATERING, AND WHEN COMBINED WITH THE MOST EFFICIENT DREDGES BUILT IN NORTH AMERICA, THEY CREATE A DESLUDGING AND DEWATERING PACKAGE UNSURPASSED IN THE INDUSTRY.

TIL has the latest unmanned remote dredge technology, using the right dredge for each job by fully analyzing lagoon size, depth, volumes, and type of sludge. Combined with Tecumseh’s custom built in-house centrifuge technology, we can deliver an efficient, high volume dewatering package for lagoon solids removal and clean-up requirements.

Our process can be used efficiently for the removal of solids from any type of lagoon, settling pond or retention pond, including dairy, hog and sewage.

Weeds & sh*t.

TIL will assess the vegetation, weeds, high solids, and debris in your lagoon that typically accumulate on the banks and include reeds, trees, roots and debris. These materials reduce the lagoon's efficiency by encroaching on its surface area and banks. Removing them will restore the lagoon to its original size and efficiency, improving its health. We will safely remove all debris and vegetation from the banks before starting the dredging and desludging process. This extra step saves operational time during sludge removal, as the dredging process will operate efficiently, reducing downtime and ensuring the project stays within budget and timeline.

Pump that sh*t.

TIL’s unmanned remote dredge is designed for continuous removal of settled solids, increasing the usable space within your lagoon. We use the right dredge for the job by fully analyzing lagoon size, depth, volumes, and type of sludge. Each dredge comes with a liner protection system to protect against costly liner damage.

Sort that sh*t.

TIL’s sealed shaker tank receives the material from the dredge and removes all the larger debris before sending the slurry to the Tecumseh centrifuges. The sealed tank also removes any potential gases that may be occurring within the lagoon during the process.

We design and build our own shaker tanks.

Spin that sh*t.

Centrifugal finesse: The final separation is performed by Tecumseh centrifuges: returning clean water to the lagoon, and depositing dry, stackable solids that can be removed from the site.

Tecumseh’s continued success is attributed to manufacturing one of the largest, most reliable and most efficient horizontal decanting centrifuges available in the dewatering industry.
