The purpose of landfill capping
Landfill capping design system for non-hazardous and hazardous landfills should prevent the intrusion of precipitation into the waste or the release of landfill gases from the waste.
SENSOR DDS® FIXED systems are suitable for such application and allow the client to monitor the integrity of the sealing layer (geomembrane) for more than 30 years (guaranteed by BAM certification of SENSOR DDS® technology)
