COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY

Intertechne has built a strong track record in environmental studies, proudly contributing to Brazil’s sustainable development. Over the years, we have delivered landmark projects both domestically and internationally, establishing a diverse portfolio. We collaborate with a trusted network of top-tier consultants who offer specialized, ad hoc support in areas such as water and air quality, biodiversity (flora and fauna), archaeology, hydrogeology, social communication, solid waste and effluent management, and mining, among others.

Our core expertise lies in Environmental Engineering and Environmental Management, with capabilities that include:

  • Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA)
  • Environmental Licensing
  • Water and Air Quality Monitoring
  • Solid Waste and Effluent Management
  • Restoration of Degraded Areas

Intertechne also brings extensive international experience to this field, backed by a long-standing and varied portfolio of services delivered in both greenfield and brownfield projects.

Notable examples of our high-profile international projects include the environmental restoration of the Doce River Basin, the management of environmental initiatives at the Rio de Janeiro Petrochemical Complex (COMPERJ), and the environmental impact assessment for the Carajás Mining Expansion Project. These projects, and many others, demonstrate the breadth of our experience.

Intertechne is an active member of the International Hydropower Association (IHA), a global organization that promotes sustainable hydropower by developing and sharing knowledge about renewable energy systems, responsible freshwater management, and climate change solutions. In this context, environmental considerations are a core component of our project approach, enabling integrated action from the earliest stages: Conceptual, Feasibility, Basic, and Detailed Design, through strong collaboration between our Environmental teams and all other engineering disciplines.
