Global Landfill Mining

Conference and exhibition

London Thursday 9 October 2008

'Treasure from trash'

Register interest in attending

From its origins in the 1950s, Landfill Mining is an idea whose time has come. Even aside from their valuable methane resources, landfills should now be seen as valuable repositories for a wealth of higher value materials. Landfill mining can recover valuable metals, produce high quality fertiliser and construction materials, and can make available real-estate that was once considered lost forever.

Attendence will allow landfill operators to extend their business models, and to extract the maximum value from their assets. Networking opportunities at the event will be superb, and the adjacent exhibition will allow operators to source the most cost-effective equipment and advice for landfill mining and monetisation.
