Municipalities and Landfill Operators

Landfills are the dumping ground in more ways than one. It is the last resort for solid waste and more often than not, also liquid waste, discarded by society and industry. The planning and management of landfills are strictly regulated.

The problem facing Biological Waste creators is that very few alternatives are available or affordable. The result is an incredible amount of Biological Waste that ends up at landfills and becomes the problem of the landfill operator, whether it is the local municipality or outside contractors.

Landfills are historically a source of infectious agents and pathogens. Apart from possible contamination of soil and water resources, scavengers, rodents and birds complicate the infection risk to humans and animals.

Landfill management is much more scientific and effective in the modern era and to this end Convertech have designed the technology and equipment to assist the Landfill management to deal with Biological Waste effectively. Now Landfill management has the options of Biological Waste treatment, recycling or disposal.
