Tiamat has been making waves in the news! Thank you to Dredging Today for sharing the news about the results of our recent noise study. 👏 This year we have invested in deeper research into our innovative hydrodynamic dredger, Tiamat, with HR Wallingford. The results of the noise study, looking at the impact on the marine ecosystem, confirm that Tiamat is safe for marine mammals and fish, emitting significantly less noise compared to traditional Trailing Suction Hopper Dredgers (TSHDs). This study reinforces Tiamat’s role as a more sustainable dredging solution. With decibel levels below thresholds for marine life, Tiamat provides ports and harbours with an environmentally responsible and cost effective alternative for maintenance dredging. 🌍🌱 A huge thank you to our team and partners for making this possible.

20th Anniversary blast from the past, and one of our absolute favorites since we snapped this photo in 2010. In the background you'll notice our blue tanks with yellow handrails, this system at the Ruskin Dam near Mission BC was commissioned to treat 2000GPM (126L/s) of heavily sediment laden water and required to discharge directly into the Stave River. Knowing anglers were still fishing in that effluent not only proved our environmentally friendly chemistry but reinforced our ability to execute on the largest projects under the most stringent environmental regulations. #stormtec20 #watermanagement #sedimentcontrol

It’s always great to see Haven Dredging making headlines! 🌟 Earlier this year, we worked with HR Wallingford to conduct a study to assess the noise disturbance of agitation dredgers in the UK and its impact on marine life - led by the innovative hydrodynamic dredging solution, Tiamat. This recent feature in Dredging Today highlights the impressive results of the Tiamat noise study. The findings confirm that Tiamat is below the safe levels for marine life, while showcasing its more environmentally conscious approach to maintenance dredging compared to traditional methods. This is yet another milestone for Haven Dredging and is testament to the team’s commitment to sustainable innovation. A big thanks to Dredging Today for covering this important achievement!🎉 Read the full article below and follow Haven Dredging for more industry insights. #HavenDredging #Tiamat #SustainableDredging #Innovation

Adverse weather events cause a lot of disruption around the world, not only to buildings and assets, but to livelihoods and vital transport links. During storms, ports are considered to be “safe havens”, where the water is calmer and more protected from external weather conditions. However, this also means that this is where sediment naturally settles, and this can further disrupt infrastructure networks. As a result, ports, harbours, rivers and reservoirs need to manage the impact of storm events, and therefore need to dredge more often and on a more random basis – as opposed to planned campaigns – to keep traffic moving and supply chains healthy. Accretion of sediment on river and sea beds can often lead to an imbalanced build-up of materials, making bodies of water unnavigable. This can also have a detrimental impact on wildlife, habitats and the wider environment if it is not carefully and efficiently managed. The most effective method to address this problem is dredging, but it can come at a huge cost – both from a resource and financial perspective. Traditional methods of dredging can be useful in these situations, though there are limitations, particularly when it comes to needing to dredge with short notice and at various locations around the globe.

Construction of the climate chambers - the heart of our system In our climate chambers, we ensure optimal conditions for the Hermetia seed larvae to mature during the fattening cycle. The chambers have a floor area of 50 m2 and are 4 m high. Depending on capacity and building structure, we install a variable number of climate chambers for a FarmInsect system. At least two climate chambers are required for economical operation of the fattening system. With the help of heating and air conditioning technology from our partner company SKOV, the air flow, humidity and temperatures in the individual fattening chambers and between them can be precisely controlled. Join our Team! Visit our website or send your informative documents to talents@farminsect.eu. We‘re looking forward to hearing from you! #kreislaufwirtschaft #modernelandwirtschaft #landwirtschaft #insektenproduktion #farminsect #agritech #blacksoldierfly #verticalfarming #insectfarming #insectsasfeed #sustainability

Controlling vegetation along rail corridors is an essential element of rail safety and infrastructure management. Kim Evans from GTE Track Spray recently shared his experience trialing Method® 240SL herbicide from #Envu within a densely overgrown area in the Australian regional rail network.   The commercial trial aimed to evaluate Method 240SL herbicide's efficacy in managing dense vegetation along the #railcorridor, which is crucial for safety and #infrastructuremaintenance. Despite several years of limited maintenance, and over growth of vegetation, Method 240SL herbicide proved highly effective, achieving a high level of control of both broadleaf and woody weeds within the 9 week trial period.   Mr Evans highlighted Method 240SL herbicide's low application rate, excellent mixing properties and odorless nature, making it a standout choice for industrial #weedcontrol. Moreover, with its versatility in application methods, including boom spraying and cut stump situations, Method 240SL herbicide offers unparalleled convenience and effectiveness.   While still new to the Australian market, this broad-spectrum herbicide shows immense promise, with plans to expand its usage across various remote corridors. Thank you, Kim, for sharing your experience with Method 240SL herbicide.   As invasive vegetation can threaten the safety of crucial infrastructure, we look forward to continuing to arm our partners around the world with tools to identify harmful species and respond to threats with greater precision. To keep societies moving safely forward, we must be a force with nature.
