Nelson brings reclamation, recycling and resource recovery solutions to ARC2026

Issued by Nelson Environmental Remediation

Leading Canadian remediation company will showcase thermal treatment, PFAS and resource recovery approaches at the Atlantic Reclamation Conference in Quispamsis

QUISPAMSIS, NB, October 2026. Nelson Environmental Remediation will bring its reclamation, recycling and resource recovery experience to ARC2026 in Quispamsis, New Brunswick, October 7–9.

This leading Canadian remediation company has spent more than three decades treating contaminated soil and difficult industrial materials, with an emphasis on finding productive outcomes for material that might otherwise be treated only as waste.

Nelson’s mobile thermal systems have treated millions of tonnes of contaminated soil, including more than 1.2 million tonnes of hydrocarbon-impacted soil in North Dakota, one of the largest inland oil spills in US history. In eastern Canada, Nelson also treated approximately 80,000 tonnes of oil-impacted mill scale at an operating steel facility, recovering oil and returning treated material to productive use. Currently, Nelson is also remediating legacy dioxin residues in Vietnam. Nelson operates one of the largest thermal remediation fleets in the world.

At ARC2026, Nelson will be showcasing contaminated soil remediation, hydrocarbons, PFAS, resource recovery, thermal treatment and other approaches designed to reduce disposal while recovering value where project conditions allow.

Nelson is a Silver Sponsor of ARC2026. The event is being held at the qplex in Quispamsis.

“The best remediation outcome is not always disposal. When we can remove the contamination, recover what still has value and return material to productive use, we create better environmental and economic outcomes,” said Warren Nelson, CEO of Nelson Environmental Remediation.
