About this location

At this site, a 10-year pilot has been running for part of the landfill since 2018: “Introduction of Sustainable Landfill Management”. Wastewater from this part is pre-treated and recirculated to “flush” the landfill. Wastewater from other parts of the landfill and from the Zevenbergen landfill is pre-treated in a separate treatment plant. Afterwards, the treated water is discharged to the sewer system.

The landfill gas extracted from the landfill is converted into electricity and waste heat (CHP) using a gas engine.
