A reclamation method involving the removal/extraction of the environmental matrix and its treatment directly at the site
Aspiration and extraction of groundwater.
A plant which generates electric power from solar energy.
Containment works at a site designed and implemented as a definitive reclamation operation.
Liquid normally caused by the infiltration of water into a mass of waste or by the decomposition of waste.
Reclamation technique involving the use of plants for the treatment of contaminated environmental matrices.
An instrument which is placed vertically into the ground using a probe to measure water pressure in an aquifer.
Combined system for groundwater extraction and treatment.
Health risk analysis enables the quantitative assessment of risks to human health connected to the presence of pollutants in environmental matrices, and the definition of reclamation objectives.
Risk Threshold Concentrations, levels of environmental matrix pollution above which site characterisation and site-specific risk analysis are required, as specified in Annex 5 to the fourth part of this decree.If the potentially contaminated site is located in an area affected by anthropic or natural phenomena which exceed one or more contamination threshold concentrations, said concentrations are taken to be equal to existing background values for all exceeded values.
- Risk Threshold Concentrations (RTC): the contamination levels of environmental matrices, established on a case-by-case basis, with the application of a site-specific risk analysis procedure in accordance with principles illustrated in Annex 1 to the fourth part of this decree and on the basis of characterisation plan results; if exceeded, safety containment and reclamation are required.Concentration levels defined in this manner constitute acceptability levels for the site.
Operation involving the review and restructuring of industrial plants with the purpose of increasing the useful life of facilities in the production process.
Sheets, normally made from metal, which are driven into the ground at various depths to create separation or support barriers in the event of selective excavation operations.
Site of National Interest.
Removal of topsoil.
Groundwater treatment
51% of Anic share capital was purchased, thanks to the foresightedness of Enrico Mattei, founder of Eni. In a short space of time, Eni became one of the Country's most important synthetic polymer production sites
As of this year, Anic built the petrochemical plants in Ravenna for the production of fertilisers and synthetic rubber, in Gela for the production of plastic materials and fertilisers, and Pisticci, for the production of intermediates for plastic materials, solvents and fibres
Società Chimica Larderello was founded, with 50/50 Anic/ Solvay share capital, for the management of the chlorine-sodium plant and the former Larderello Saltworks in Volterra
Acquisition of ABCD (Asphalt, Bitumen, Cements and Derivatives)
Acquisition of Terni Chemical Industries (ammonia). During the early Seventies, Anic diversified in the fine chemicals sector, pharmaceuticals in particular, with the acquisition of the companies Laboratori Chimici Farmacologici, Industrie Chimiche del Trentino, Bozzetto Industrie Chimiche and Sclavo
Between 1977 and 1978 Anic acquired Recordati, De.Bi (Derivati Biologici International) and Bellco
Hand over ex lege of EGAM in liquidation (mining and other activities)
In the wake of the crisis which struck the petrochemical sector during the Seventies, law no. 784 entrusted Eni with the management of the Sir-Rumianca groups (petrochemical, chlorine cycle, salt) and Liquichemica. Eni signed an agreement with the American company Occidental Petroleum, resulting in the joint venture Enoxy, for the development of synthetic rubber. In 1982 Eni bought the entire Enoxy shareholding
The plan to restructure the chemical sector got under way. The industrial complexes of Porto Torres, Cagliari, Pieve Vergonte and Avenza sites were all transferred over to Eni, for Sir; Augusta, Ferrandina and Saline Ionica for Liquichimica
EniChem was founded, the petrochemical company of Eni Group which took over the main activities of EniChimica. Since 1981 the latter had managed companies of the Anic group and acquired them. EniChem then created subsidiary companies, divided into and specialised in different industrial and production sectors Acquisition of Riveda da Montedison (plastic chemical, PVC, rubber)
Enimont was founded, the joint venture for the creation of a large public-private hub for the Italian chemicals sector, 50/50 EniChem, controlled by Eni, at the time a state body, and the private colossus Montedison
Montedison chemical assets were handed over to Eni, following the failure of the Enimont operation
Former Sameton handed over by Snam (mining sector)
The Eni privatisation process first began, with the floating of shares for the first time in 1995. Enirisorse and Pertusola Sud (mining activities) were transferred to Enichem
The fertiliser production plants on the Ravenna, Ferrara, Barletta and Terni sites were transferred to the Norsk Hydro Group
Liquidation of Agricoltura by Agip (agricultural fertiliser sector)
Enichem stopped all non-strategic production activities (except for Assemini) and proceeded with the demolition of inactive plants. Hand over of Singea in liquidation (mining metallurgy activity)
Syndial was created from Enichem, the Eni petrochemical company. The company inherited industrial areas and/or brownfields owned by Enichem - complete with the full burden of their reclamation. It focused its mission on the environmental sector. Production activities were transferred to Polimeri Europa (now Versalis)
Syndial incorporated residual activities of the Environmental Companies of the Scarlino and Ferrara sites (Environment Laboratory)
Syndial handed all production activities of the Porto Torres plant over to Polimeri Europa, maintaining its commitment to pursue reclamation activities at the site
Syndial acquired the Disposal branch of the company, focused on waste logistics
Syndial acquired the Environmental Service branch of Saipem, specialised in planning, engineering and environmental studies
Syndial acquired the R&M business unit of the company Punti Vendita, focused on the environmental management of industrial sites and decommissioned retail stores, in addition to cleanup and reclamation activities for stores still in business
Syndial started its management of Gela Refinery environmental assets, for the treatment of waters, by renting out the relative company branch With acquisitions made in 2015, 2016 and 2017, Syndial became Eni's reference point for environmental activities
The pilot Waste to Fuel plant was commissioned in Gela, for onsite experimentation of Eni proprietary technology capable of transforming the organic fraction of solid urban wast (OFSUW) into bio oil and water.
Syndial became Eni Rewind
We work in accordance with the principles of circular economy, to exploit industrial sites and waste through reclamation, efficient and sustainable recovery projects.
