Riese Aquatics Dredging services

Dredging is our passion.

 Whether you're in need of service or simply curious about the process, our website offers insights, on dredging services all throughout Wisconsin. 

Mechanical Dredging

Cattail Removal via Mechanical Dredging

 

  • Method: Mechanical dredging involves the use of heavy machinery equipped with buckets, scoops, or cutting devices to physically excavate and remove sediment from the bottom of a water body.
  • Equipment: Common types of equipment used in mechanical dredging include dredges, excavators, backhoes, clamshell buckets, draglines, or a Truxor T30/T50.
  • Operation: The equipment operates from the surface of the water or from barges, mechanically scooping up or cutting through sediment deposits. The excavated material is then lifted and transported to disposal sites, often using conveyor belts or pumps.
  • Suitability: Mechanical dredging is suitable for removing dense or compacted sediments, as well as materials with high shear strength. It is often used in areas where precise control over dredging depth and location is required.

Suction Dredging

Sediment Removal via Suction Dredging

 

  • Method: Suction dredging, also known as hydraulic dredging, utilizes suction pumps or hydraulic systems to remove sediment by creating a vacuum or suction force.
  • Equipment: The primary equipment used in suction dredging includes suction pumps, pipes, and hydraulic hoses connected to a dredge or pontoon.
  • Operation: Suction dredges operate by drawing in water and sediment through a suction head. The material is then transported through pipes to a storage area or processing facility where it is then separated from the water.
  • Suitability: Suction dredging is effective for removing loose or fine-grained sediments, sand, silt, and other materials that can be easily transported by water flow. It is often used in shallow or confined areas where traditional mechanical dredging equipment may be difficult to maneuver.

Dreding Process

Planning & Assessment

Dredging Method & Permitting

Dredging Method & Permitting

 Identify the need for dredging based on factors such as navigation requirements, sediment accumulation, or environmental concerns. 

 Conduct site assessments to determine the extent of sedimentation, water depths, environmental impacts, and regulatory requirements. 

Dredging Method & Permitting

Dredging Method & Permitting

Dredging Method & Permitting

 Choose the appropriate dredging method based on factors such as sediment type, water depth, project scale, and environmental considerations. 

 Obtain necessary permits and approvals from regulatory agencies governing dredging activities, including environmental impact assessments, water quality permits, and navigation clearances. 

Mobilization & Setup

Dredging Method & Permitting

Dredging Operations:

 Mobilize dredging equipment to the project site, including dredges, barges, support vessels, and ancillary machinery. 

 Set up equipment such as pipelines, pumps, and sediment containment measures according to project specifications and safety protocols. 

Dredging Operations:

Completion & Site Restoration

Dredging Operations:

 Commence dredging operations according to predetermined plans and schedules. 

 Depending on the chosen method, dredging may involve excavating sediment mechanically using buckets, cutters, or hydraulic equipment, or using suction pumps to remove sediment hydraulically. 

Monitoring & Disposal

Completion & Site Restoration

Completion & Site Restoration

Conduct sediment sampling and analysis to assess sediment quality and ensure proper disposal or management.  

Once the material has dryed, we begin to transport dredged material onto a dump truck designed to transport heavy loads. 

 

Completion & Site Restoration

Completion & Site Restoration

Completion & Site Restoration

 Complete dredging operations within the scheduled timeframe and budget. 

 Restore the project site to its pre-dredging condition or implement mitigation measures to minimize environmental impacts.
