→ APPLICATIONS / LANDFILL WATER MANAGEMENT

Landfill water management.

Steady, high-rate evaporation from XPEL reduces stored leachate volumes across landfill environments facing variable chemistry and fluctuating inflows, strengthening long-term control and easing pressure on downstream assets.

Landfill water management demands reliable control over leachate streams containing ammonia, dissolved solids, organics and heavy metals that place sustained pressure on storage ponds, tanks and downstream treatment systems.

These high-strength liquids shift with rainfall, temperature, waste composition and seasonal activity, creating inflow patterns that are difficult to stabilize.

Operators face increasing pressure as rainfall intensity rises, containment infrastructure ages and regulatory expectations tighten. Without effective volume control, leachate levels can rise quickly, increasing the risk of overtopping, seepage into surrounding soil and potential impact on nearby communities.

Daily operations become even more challenging when leachate chemistry fluctuates, forcing mechanical and biological treatment assets to operate at their limits. Sudden spikes in concentration or hydraulic load can reduce treatment efficiency and push facilities toward trucking, dilution or emergency storage measures.

XPEL provides an engineered evaporation solution that reduces water levels from leachate ponds and stabilizes storage conditions despite variable chemistry and inconsistent inflows. Its consistent, high-rate evaporation output reduces reliance on off-site disposal, lowers hydraulic pressure on containment systems and eases the burden on downstream treatment infrastructure.

By maintaining predictable evaporation performance across diverse landfill environments, XPEL provides operators with a more resilient, cost-efficient pathway to long-term landfill water management while supporting compliance in pressure-sensitive operational settings.

Landfill water management applications.

XPEL evaporation systems apply directly to landfill operations by lowering leachate volumes in storage ponds before the liquid is transferred to downstream treatment assets. This upstream volume reduction helps sites manage seasonal inflow variability, reduce storage risk and limit reliance on costly off-site hauling.

Pontoon
evaporators

When land based units aren’t an option, the XPEL Pontoon Series evaporator is a water management solution that can be relied on to help reduce the risk of excess water and ensure environmental compliance by reducing the volume of water stored on-site using mechanically enhanced evaporation.
