Our FacilitiesSecure LandfillPPLi operates the only hazardous landfill designed, engineered, and constructed to meet Indonesian, World Bank, EU, and US-EPA standards. The 50 hectare landfill has a total capacity of over 3 million tons with the ability to process 22,000 tons of waste annually. A double composite liner, constructed of bentonite clay and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), lines the landfill's base, which prevents any leachate from contaminating the surrounding environment. New waste is covered with soil or a synthetic material on a daily basis. Once an area of the landfill fills to capacity, it is capped with a clay and a HDPE liner to prevent water from seeping into the closed landfill cell. Primary and secondary leachate collection systems continually pump waste water from inside the landfill to the on site facility where the leachate is treated and closely monitored. Once treated, the clean water is released back into the public water system. PPLi has also implemented an effective groundwater monitoring system that is consistent with international waste management standards. The system consists of a series of monitoring wells strategically placed around the site, which enables our staff to take samples from the groundwater. Our technicians analyze the samples on a quarterly basis for various pollutant parameters and hazardous constituents and report on the quality of the surrounding environment.

Treatment FacilitiesTechnicians sample and test all of the liquid waste that arrives at PPLi to be sure that the liquid waste can be safely released into the waste water treatment system. If the waste cannot be immediately released, it will be physically and chemically treated in the PChem (Physical & Chemical) tanks. PPLi's also uses a physical and chemical treatment process for certain non-organic hazardous wastes to make the refuse less dangerous. Once stabilized, the end product is disposed of in the secure landfill cell. Water jets control the byproducts of the stabilization process including dust and odors ensuring that no other effluents or emissions are generated as a result of stabilization. To treat organic hazardous wastes such as spent solvents, waste oils, and other petroleum-based products, PPLi technicians blend the wastes together to create a synthetic fuel that is burned at the onsite cement kiln. Before sending the waste fuel to the kiln, PPLi tests the synthetic fuel to ensure it meets the contaminant specifications required by Indonesian and US-EPA environmental standards.
Operational FacilitiesEach time that a transportation vehicle enters or leaves the site, our technicians weigh the vehicle at our weighbridge to ensure that the amount of waste treated is consistent with customer's records. Closed circuit television cameras monitor the weighbridge 24 hours a day to ensure safety and proper record-keeping, which includes accurate invoices and other necessary documentation. For clients who want additional destruction records, PPLi can produce visual records of trucks entering the site.
