Leachate is an effluent with a high biological and chemical polluting content that is produced in landfills and dumps as a result of waste degradation and rainfall precipitation.
Technological experience has shown that conventional treatments do not have the capacity to adequately treat waste effluents with the composition of the leachate. These systems do not have the capacity to reduce pollutants and allow the effluent to be discharged into water, and also present operational problems due to variations in composition and volume.
The entire system in one container
AST's specialized system treats leachate with membrane-based technology. Our systems can be installed in any space or mounted in mobile plants, inside sea containers or on trailers with capacities from 30 to 270 m³/day converting them into fully functional plants.
State-of-the-art technology
Landfill leachate is pumped directly to our plants where it is pretreated and filtered to be purified in a special high-pressure reverse osmosis stage. Additional stages can be installed to further reduce low molecular weight contaminants such as ammonia or AOX.
Low operating costs
The cost of membrane spare parts, energy, and chemical consumption is very low in comparison to conventional RO Systems.
Scalable and Modular
It can be complemented with advanced biological treatment, with MBR and tertiary treatments, to suit the required water quality.
Fully Automated System
Automated system washing and cleaning. It features an intelligent control interface with IoT, which maximizes downtime and facilitates system operation.
