SYLVIS has developed beneficial residuals management opportunities in mine reclamation, biomass plantations, landfills, forestry, agriculture, ecosystem enhancement and development of value added products.
Forestry
SYLVIS has the professional expertise, operational knowledge and specialised equipment to to fertilize forests with residuals.
Most North American forests are nutrient deficient and their soils lack the plant nutrients for optimal growth. When residuals are used in forestry as a fertilizer or soil amendment they can provide multiple benefits including increased productivity and measurable and permanent gains in biomass and soil carbon storage. A single application of residuals can result in a significant increase in growth that is sustained for several years.
SYLVIS owns and operates specialized application equipment that enables us to effectively apply residuals in areas of limited access that are characteristic of most natural forested areas and woodlots.
