Case Study: Leachate Recirculation System Pays for Itself

To achieve even dispersal and optimum long term wetting of the trash requires a widely distributed subsurface network of pipes with a controlled rate of leachate flow throughout the fields. This method provides even leachate distribution, eliminates odor problems, increases gas production and eliminates the expense of trucking and treating leachate.
