CASE HISTORY: reducing leachate costs in landfills
COST BUDGET CALCULATION
- Location: Montichiari (BS) | Area: 50,000 m²
- Average annual rainfall: 0.692 m (source: MeteoBlu)
- 70% (0.7) of rainfall in the absence of the cover is transformed into leachate.
- Assumed leachate disposal cost: 30.00 €/m³
- Calculation of the amount of leachate produced in one year
0.692 m x 0.7 x 50,000 m² = 24,220 m³/year - Calculation of the annual leachate disposal cost in the absence of a cover:
24,220 m³/year × €30.00/m³ = €726,600.00 - Cost of complete temporary cover with Cover up + Net Down: € 300,000
RESULT
- Cover Up + Net Down pay for themselves in 4 months of use
(cover lasts at least 5 years) - Additional benefit with biogas capture:
+ more profit
+ more qualitative biogas yield
