Leachate
World’s first landfill leachate management and water recovery system using FPSTAR boomtube technology
FPSTAR boomtube based leachate treatment plant at Bellahalli landfill, Bengaluru, is the world’s most advanced zero liquid discharge technology to convert landfill leachate into clean water without biological or chemical processes.
About 120,000 litres (120KLD) of leachate is treated at Bellahalli Landfill Leachate Treatment Plant every day. The clean water recovered is used for agriculture/ gardening purposes currently and the excess water is planned to be released to a nearby lake soon. The treated water parameters confirm to State & Central Pollution Control Board Standards and IS::10500 standards.
The entire plant is close looped and the footprint is only 3000 Sq. Ft. The residue sludge from the collection tank is being treated using a proprietary technology called MIBR AD plant to convert them into Electricity.
The potential for Resource recovery of post Boomtube Resonator sludge (as elements) is under progress and is at testing stage enabling the birth of a new concept of Zero Waste Discharge Leachate Treatment and Management System.
