LANDFILLS AND WASTE DISPOSAL
LANDFILLS, DAMS, WASTE & RETENTION PONDS
The world today is experiencing an extraordinary stress on the environment and the land of every nation is now under extreme pressure to accommodate the enormous garbage and refuge materials storage problems that are increasing daily. The same problem exists with animal waste and other hazardous material sites and storage lagoons throughout the world. This increase in the critical need to house waste of every description is growing to proportions that are now out of control. Along with this vast need is the search for a sustainable solution and this solution must meet the requirements of pending legislation as well as those of the earth itself. There have been many temporary fixes that merely mask the problem but until now there have not been any sustainable environmental answers that are proven effective, efficient and also environmentally friendly. One must always remember that this is not just an environmental issue of epic proportions but it is also a very critical health issue that is growing rapidly. The search for an answer to this immense problem is one of the current centuries most critically sought after issues. What is also frightening is that present landfills and waste lagoons also seep down into the ground water posing very serious threats to current and future generations. Through the use of today's landfill liners as well as surface seals the risk factors are enormous. The solution however is here now, it works, its simple to construct and it is very cost effective.
LANDFILL SITE IN THE PROCESS OF SEALING
Engineers and scientists have referred to the many benefits of EarthZyme and most of this information is contained in other sections of this web site. The impermeability of compacted clay soils treated with EarthZyme solve the lining perspective of the landfills without the expensive and totally ineffective products that are widely in use today. The sealing of the landfills with EarthZyme provides the perfect solution to the permanence and reliability of this environmentally friendly resource that allows nature to take it's course without any effect on mankind. Another very important benefit from Cypher is Dust Stop which prevents the upper surface from blowing off the landfills and migrating towards the areas inhabited by populations that are vulnerable to the disastrous effects of disease and foul odors. Cypher's waste control and construction products are uncomplicated and low cost but they also provide the perfect sustainable solution that is of such vast benefit to both the taxpayers and the planet on which we all live. The answer to this is simply in the soil used both to construct and line the landfill and then to seal it upon reaching capacity. The treatment product that allows this to happen is EarthZyme and it is also as natural as the soil itself. Expensive purchases are not required and EarthZyme's effectiveness is well documented and completely environmental. Further elaboration on the effectiveness of EarthZyme and Dust Stop for this and many other critical applications of world importance is fully explained throughout this descriptive web site.
TORRES STRAIT ISLANDS WATER SUPPLY UPGRADE PROJECT 1994 -1996.
This Design & Construction (D& C) project involved seven islands in the Torres Strait and the contract was awarded to Thiess Contractors Pty Ltd in October 1994. The final contract value for the project was 8.6 million dollars. The full design was performed by Connell Wagner Pty Ltd, Cairns. Connell Wagner Pty Ltd selected EarthZyme for Saibai Islands new Excavated storage lagoon.
Saibai Island at it's highest point is only two metres above sea level. The existing storage lagoons were believed to be suffering from salt water intrusion during high tides.EarthZyme was selected for the new lagoon because of its proven ability to have a very pronounced effect on the permeability of clay based soils.
Thiess Contractors Pty Ltd under the Project Manager and on site Engineer controlled all earthworks and construction. The on site Supervisor located and established a suitable borrow pit to source the clay liner for the excavated storage.
The purpose of the above dam was to keep the salt water out and the fresh drinking water in.
The same EarthZyme treatment will ensure similar results for the effective construction of retention lagoons,waste ponds ,dams, dikes and water containment sites.
 The above dam under construction on Saibai Island. Clay was brought from a borrow pit 2 kilometres (1.2 miles) away.
EarthZyme is highly suited to dam construction of all kinds, from toxic waste containment to fresh water dams and the final capping of waste containment areas. The liners are constructed from 150mm (5.9 inches) to a two lift construction giving final treated soils to 400 mm (16 inches). Increased impermeability is the aim in all instances.
