KanAgg Recycling Provides Affordable, Tailored Recycling Solutions For Spent Abrasives

After blasting abrasives are used to restore existing infrastructure, it is necessary to properly manage the spent abrasives. At KanAgg Recycling, we specialize in spent abrasive recycling for infrastructure rehabilitation projects across Louisiana and in Houston, Texas. Restoring infrastructure using spent abrasives can extend its lifespan, increase its functionality, and addresses deterioration issues. It is important to properly recycle the spent abrasives used during restoration. Our expertise lies in collecting spent abrasives such as coal, garnet, crushed glass, and more for efficient, eco-friendly, and cost-effective disposal and reutilization of these materials.

Restoring Infrastructure? Use KanAgg to Recycle the Spent Abrasives Used

Various abrasives are used to restore surfaces in infrastructure repair projects. Abrasive blasting is used to prepare surfaces for coating applications for repair, or maintenance, ensuring better adhesion and longevity of protective coatings. Many types of infrastructure are exposed to the elements which cause them to rust and corrode over time. Abrasives are utilized to remove these corrosive elements, preventing further deterioration; this is vital in extending the lifespan of bridges, pipelines, and other metal structures. Regular cleaning and maintenance extends the life of infrastructure and ensures it stays in peak condition. Once abrasives are used, spent abrasives need to be recycled to prevent environmental impact and conserve the abrasives for future use. We specialize in affordable and environmentally compliant recycling of spent abrasives used in infrastructure restoration.

Environmental Compliance

We operate in Louisiana and Houston, Texas where adherence to environmental regulations is crucial. We ensure our recycling process minimizes the environmental impact of the spent abrasives and meets legal requirements. Spent abrasives may contain contaminants, coatings, or particles removed from surfaces, which could be classified as hazardous waste based on the substances present. KanAgg only contracts accredited and independent laboratories to test for hazardous materials. We also comply with environmental regulations regarding the handling, transportation, treatment, and disposal of spent abrasives.

How Our Recycling Program Works

Step 1

If not already obtained or not current (within 12 months), we help our customers acquire laboratory analysis of the spent abrasive. This is done to ensure environmental safety, recycling suitability, and establish the material as Class 2 Non-Hazardous Industrial Waste. KanAgg only contracts with accredited, independent laboratories.

KanAgg prides itself on simplicity and efficiency. We are able to provide our customers with fully turnkey, per ton pricing. This helps them more accurately plan for the expense and stay on budget with each project.

Step 2

Upon laboratory confirmation and establishment of Class 2 status, we’re ready to get started. Each customer receives a single invoice from KanAgg that accounts for all associated charges (recycling center, transportation costs, etc.). In order to ensure the highest levels of responsibility, KanAgg only utilizes state-approved recycling centers. Each invoice received is accompanied by a certified scale ticket.

Step 3

At no cost to the customer, KanAgg will generate and submit all necessary recycling notifications to the appropriate state agency (if required). This free service allows our customers to not get bogged down in the paperwork and to have total peace of mind!

There are no hidden fees, add-ons, or other extraneous charges, such as “drop charges,” “box rental,” “fuel surcharge,” etc. You’re only invoiced for each net ton recycled. It’s really as simple and straightforward as that! At no cost to the customer, KanAgg will generate and submit all necessary notifications. This allows our customers to not get bogged down in the paperwork and to have total peace of mind!
