Roux Associates is a nationally recognized leader in the design and implementation of sustainable, low-cost “Green” ENS® treatment technologies. Our award-winning ENS® Group focuses on the application of ENS® technologies to treat groundwater and surface water contamination, stormwater runoff, landfill leachate, contaminated soils and sediments and industrial/municipal wastewaters.
Our work in the Constructed Treatment Wetlands (CTW) arena has resulted in a U.S. Patent award for the design of an innovative CTW system for enhanced and reliable wastewater treatment. The efficient and effective use of ENS® technologies, such as CTW, phytotechnologies, and other passive natural technologies (e.g., natural media filtration) designed by our ENS® Group has resulted in significant cost savings for our clients versus conventional remedial alternatives. In fact, two of our recent ENS® designs for a Fortune 100 client received separate Global Environmental Health and Safety awards for innovation, cost-effectiveness, excellence in reducing stormwater runoff, and eliminating PCBs in wastewater. Each design reduced capital costs by millions of dollars and long-term O&M costs by more than 90%.
Roux Associates has successfully designed and installed ENS® systems to treat BTEX, PAHs, PCBs, metals, total dissolved solids, total suspended solids, biological oxygen demand, fecal coliform, nutrients and other selected constituents. Our phytotechnology applications have been approved for landfill closure projects and for the capture, containment, and treatment of contaminated groundwater plumes. To date, Roux Associates has planted over 65,000 trees at a variety of sites and application arenas throughout the country. As one of the pioneers in developing and successfully applying ENS®-based technologies, both nationally and internationally, we look forward to assisting our clients in developing a cost-effective and sustainable solution to their most challenging treatment needs.
