We are very excited to announce we won the Outstanding Application of the Vetiver System Category of the King of Thailand Vetiver Awards!! We use vetiver grass in some of our Phyto-Utilization systems at landfills to consume leachate in a green and sustainable way. The awards were presented to Eric Wiediger and Brad Granley by […]
Congratulations to our own Brad Granley from LMS for winning a 2022 Innovator Award from MSW Management magazine! He was also interviewed for one of their articles about leachate management at landfills, which you can read HERE.
LMS recently completed a seep repair project at a closed landfill in the Gulf Coast using vetiver grass. Seep breakouts and slope instability can become a headache for any landfill or dump facility. An effective method for preventing and repairing these problems is using plants and trees to secure the soil layer in place and […]
In February, Brad Granley presented nature-based on-site leachate solutions at the Global Waste Management Symposium in California held by Waste360 and EREF. His presentation was titled, “No – I’m Breaking Up With You! Leaving Your WWTP Relationship Before They Cut You Off – Data-Driven Validation of Newer Technologies for On-Site Leachate Disposal.”
In November, Brad Granley from LMS presented at both the Colorado and Georgia SWANA conferences. In CO, he discussed how a landfill was at risk of getting cut off from a WWTP because of H2S odors in its leachate, so they teamed up with LMS to quickly find a solution and reestablish its WWTP relationship. […]
At one of our leachate phyto systems in Texas, we set up a trail camera to monitor plant growth and wildlife. Check out some of the animals that we caught passing through!
LMS has built a mobile pilot system for its WAIV wind evaporation technology to test in different climates and with different wastewaters. Testing locations have included a brackish water facility in New Mexico and a municipal waste landfill in Louisiana. If you are interested in testing the technology at your site, contact us today!
Recently, LMS and Sanitation Services completed the installation of a unique constructed wetland treatment system at a landfill in the Bahamas. The wetland system consists of a three-stage process flow with an aerated nitrification zone for ammonia removal. To ensure long-term operation and protection against extreme weather events, key innovative design techniques were applied, including […]
This year, LMS and Brazos Valley Solid Waste Management Agency (BVSWMA) received approval from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to operate a using vetiver grass at BVSWMA’s closed Rock Prairie Road Landfill near College Station, Texas. The system is designed to pump leachate generated from the landfill to a phyto field where it is […]
LMS’s senior project manager Eric Wiediger recently wrote an article about the comprehensive approach to landfill management by the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County in Illinois. LMS collaborated with the Forest Preserve District and Ecolotree Inc with the installation of a leachate Phyto-Utilization™ system using Ecolotree’s ETCap® technology. Check out the article here!
