Landfill Gas Site

Landfill Gas Site

Bangcheon-ri,

located in the city of Daegu, is where this sanitary landfill gas site is operated. Here the waste from households and factories is safely and sanitarily buried using fresh soil at a large-scale environmental-friendly site.

Daesung Eco-Energy successfully operates this sanitary landfill gas site in a manner that reduces the normal foul smell from such sites to an absolute minimum. (Daegu City safely manages the leachate runoff from the site.) As a result of Daesung’s efforts a variety of wildlife now flourishes on nearly by Waryong Mountain. In addition, this mountain has become a favorite trekking route for local residents. Daesung Eco-Energy will continue its efforts in conjunction with the city of Daegu to ensure that residents continue to benefit in many ways from this resource.
