Review: Highlights and Activities in 2019
Looking back to last year, several fruitful meetings, workshops and site visits were realized for our members. One highlight was the "Workshop for Bavarian Landfill Operators", which was hosted by Freudlsperger Beton- und Kieswerke GmbH. More then 20 landfill operators as well as representatives from authorities and iDetec experts followed the invitation to Altötting. The morning session included technical presentations (by companies Freudlsperger, Coplan and Desotec), followed by a discussion round and an on-site visit of Freudlsperger's landfill for extractive waste in the afternoon.

Another interesting site visit took place in November 2019. The iDetec network members got the opportunity to visit the impressive remediation project "Kesslergube" (Perimeter 1/3-Northwest) in Grenzach-Whylen. iDetec member Company BAUER Umwelt GmbH has been contracted by Roche Pharma AG to excavate the old landfill site with a maximum depth of 13 meters and a total volume of 180.000 m³. Afterwards, the contaminated material is transferred to a thermal treatment plant.
