The most important decisions that impact the success of a landfill occur during the initial design phase. The initial design of the landfill, cell or the expansion, has a significant impact on the long-term success of the landfill. It can have regulatory compliance as well as significant operational cost or operational efficiency implications, which can impact the long-term sustainability of the landfill.
The goal of this presentation is to educate attendees on often misunderstood fundamental concepts of centrifugal pump-based pumping systems, clarify these concepts, their application and the impact in liquid pumping designs and operation if the concepts are applied incorrectly. The training will give a number of practical examples to aid the learning process.
For over 30 years, EPG Companies Inc. has provided landfill pumping systems, and pollution control equipment. Through decades of design, engineering and manufacturing expertise, field knowledge, and extensive partnering with thousands of professionals in the landfill industry, we have provided safe, cost-effective solutions that have become industry standards and essential to achieving optimum landfill operation.
