BeneVap

BeneVap technology was originally designed and built in Queensland, Australia by BeneTerra Pty Ltd. There was a need to rehabilitate sites where numerous ponds that were built during the exploration phases of coal seam gas (CSG) development. The ponds were in remote locations and contained stale, saline produced water that had been sitting for several years. The water had a wide range of salinity characteristics dependent upon the coal formation from which it came and seasonal rainfall. It contained suspended silt and clay, algae, weeds and even some dead animals..

There were restrictions upon where the water could be disposed off site and those locations were typically a very long distance from the exploration ponds. Therefore a robust method was required to reduce the volume of water so the pond sites could be rehabilitated to their natural state. After several unsuccessful attempts to purchase equipment overseas, the BeneTerra team decided to build their own evaporator.

Soon afterward, BeneTerra Environmental LLC counterparts in the United States saw a similar need to dry up ponds that held reject water from gas production sites. Combined with the Australian design, some acquired IP and support from the Australian engineering group they began to build machines as well.

The BeneTerra engineering group in Australia has done a tremendous amount of research and development work ranging from design and instrumentation to water chemistry and air emissions. The Australian government has generously supported this research through innovation grants.

BeneTerra has received two national innovation award for work in the solid waste industry where BeneVap machines are used to dry up landfill leachate using biogas derived from landfills
