Cycle Chem, Inc. (CCI) was incorporated in 1984. Its goal was to locate and purchase a facility licensed to perform disposal of hazardous waste materials. In October of 1985, the owners of CCI purchased the Perk Chemical Company. Perk Chemical's business was the distribution and reclamation of virgin and reclaimed solvents. With the passing of the RCRA legislation the owners of Perk Chemical were required to submit application for permits to treat, store and reclaim hazardous wastes and hazardous materials. The owners of Perk Chemical recognizing the shrinking market for halogenated solvents, sold the facility and its temporary operating permits to CCI in October of 1988.
In 1993, CCI initiated a major construction upgrade project on its entire facility. Included with this project was an expansion of the tank farm, and fuels blending operation, installation of a bulk solids consolidation-solidification facility, re-padding of the entire waste process area and other significant changes. These facility upgrades were completed in 1995. With these improvements and further permit expansion in the early 1990’s, CCI is one of the most versatile and modern operations of its type in the northeastern United States.
CCI has the ability to provide flexibility with final treatment technologies consistent with Federal regulations and client needs. CCI performs both chemical and physical treatments; blending/mixing, crushing and compacting, straining, decanting, bulking/consolidation/lab packs, metals contaminated materials stabilization, solidification, D001 sludge grinding, fluidization, separation, adjusting pH, reactive sulfides and hydration - oxidizers. Rapid response to pricing and approval requests is part of the standard service offered.
Specialized services for generators whom may require more attention than consultants or contractors, is also provided on a daily basis by our highly trained field staff. Our strengths, in short, are fast approvals turnaround, competitive pricing, flexibility with disposal options/technologies, and financial stability.
CCI possesses the necessary permits to dispose of the most difficult and varied waste streams. We believe our Part "B" is unequaled in terms of its flexibility, variety and storage capacity. CCI also maintains a fully functional state certified laboratory on site to support the facility waste analysis plan and provides specialized testing services to clients.
In August of 1999, CCI expanded geographically by purchasing a second fully permitted, Part "B" Treatment, Storage and Disposal facility. This facility is located in Lewisberry, PA. The 10-acre facility is capable of storing approximately 900,000 gallons of hazardous and non-hazardous waste and offers our customers increased waste disposal alternatives and greater service area coverage.
In May of 2000 CCI once again expanded its operations with the purchase of General Chemical Corporation a fully permitted Part "B" TSD facility in Framingham, MA. CVI moved its field services division from Stoughton, MA to Framingham. The addition of this facility also allows us to increase waste disposal alternatives and offer greater service area coverage.
