OUTCOMES

Diverting a very large quantity of wastewater sludge from landfill, the City of

Cape Town benefits:

1.

It has extended the life of the Vissershok Waste Management Facility by

many years.

2.

The quantity of leachate produced by the facility will be reduced since less

water is being added now that quantity of sludge has been significantly

reduced.

3.

When the sludge is co-disposed in a waste management facility, a valuable

source of nutrients is being lost. With land application, these valuable

nutrients are being utilised and assisting in the production of food for an

ever-increasing population.

IN CONCLUSION

EnviroServ is very proud to have initiated the beneficial utilisation of waste water

sludge by land application in the Western Cape, today, we manage the largest

operation of its kind in South Africa. This is in line with the company’s policy of

developing sustainable waste handling technologies to the benefit of mankind.
