SYLVIS has developed beneficial residuals management opportunities in mine reclamation, biomass plantations, landfills, forestry, agriculture, ecosystem enhancement and development of value added products.
Education and Awareness
We believe in growth through knowledge. Continuous learning allows us to remain at the forefront of beneficial residuals management, to provide current, scientifically-supported advice to our clients, and to develop innovative residuals management opportunities.
SYLVIS staff work closely with project stakeholders, community groups, students and members of the general public to provide residuals-related information and education. We share our extensive knowledge and expertise through:
- leading tours of our residuals management sites;
- delivering conference and workshop presentations;
- conducting university lectures;
- authoring technical bulletins and guidance documents;
- preparing literature reviews;
- participating in residuals-related organizations; and
- providing educational opportunities for children and school groups.
We identify opportunities for learning and knowledge sharing on the beneficial use of residuals.
