Disposal

Newalta disposes of waste safely and in an environmentally sound manner. We operate fully regulated and engineered landfills, water disposal wells and salt caverns. By doing so, we limit your exposure to risk and liability.

Landfills

Newalta's Ontario non-hazardous, solid industrial waste landfill:

Utilizes pre-treatment facilities that consolidate and pre-treat the industrial waste approved for the landfill as well as to meet new Land Disposal Restrictions (LDR)
Uses a state-of-the-art engineered liner system (pdf) to contain the waste and control the movement of leachate

State-of-the-art liner systems to contain the waste
