Environmental Technology

Combining applied research, commercially proven technologies, and globally recognized expertise to solve complex environmental problems.

professionals located across multiple jurisdictions, combining local knowledge with global expertise.

strategically located offices across Australia and internationally.

complex and high-risk projects successfully delivered since 2011.

World-class innovation.
Definitive outcomes.

We combine our deep technical expertise and patented, commercially viable technologies with cutting-edge research and development — including tools like AI — to turn complex, recalcitrant waste and remediation challenges into recovered value. The result: practical, scalable solutions, from inception to closure, that create genuine benefit from what was once considered a liability.

What we do

Western Environmental delivers advanced technology and applied science solutions across Australia and internationally.

We pair our own field-proven technologies with deep expertise in environmental science, risk and remediation to tackle complex, recalcitrant waste, contamination and decommissioning challenges where conventional approaches are costly or intractable. We start with precise characterisation and quantitative risk assessment to accurately constrain site-specific risk, then communicate the outcome clearly — both internally and externally — to gain approval for the pathway forward. From there, we apply our innovative technologies and delivery partnerships to reduce risk, recover value, and advance difficult sites and retired assets through to closure.

Working across the energy, resources, industrial and aviation sectors throughout Australia and the Asia-Pacific, our value proposition is simple. We ensure our commercial returns are quantifiably exceeded by the value we derive for, and the costs we save, our clients — via innovation in delivery.

    Optus Stadium

    Western Environmental was engaged by the primary contractor to design, construct, operate and maintain a groundwater “capture and contain” remediation system comprising a 480 m groundwater dewatering array and multi-stage treatment system to adjust pH, remove suspended solids, metals and a range of organic contaminants that were mobilised as a result of ground improvement works to augment stadium construction. Abstracted water was successfully treated and subsequently re-used during construction, thereby avoiding off-site discharge or disposal.

    During subsequent phases of the project, Western Environmental were engaged client-side as expert advisors in relation to contamination and ASS management and were responsible for contractor oversight, review of consultant and contractor reports/plans and documents, auditing of contractor performance for compliance with project documentation and regulatory guidelines, and preparation of project close-out reports.
