The New Waste Concepts Spectrum of Alternative Daily Covers

New Waste Concepts alternative daily covers are specified by more sites than any other applied technology.

An advanced blend of polymers and recycled fiber, these landfill covers create a slurry when mixed with water. When sprayed over most surfaces, they form a uniform encapsulating layer between waste and the environment, providing reliable daily coverage in a variety of climatic conditions.

NWCI alternative daily covers are biodegradable, nonflammable and nontoxic.

They are the result of years of landfill cover research and development by engineers, chemists and analysts from North America's most respected environmental firms.

New Waste Concepts ADC's Save Valuable Airspace

Applied at 1/8" - 1/4" Thickness, NWCI Alternative Daily Covers Can Vastly Increase The Useful Life of Your Landfill

An alternative to daily soil cover, our ADC's solve the problem of non-revenue generating airspace consumption. Our products are quickly and easily sprayed over waste to a uniform depth of only 1/8 to 1/4 inch (0.3-0.6 cm). This near zero volume cover, which exceeds the requirements of daily soil, makes your airspace go further.

Moving less dirt also results in significant labor and equipment savings.

	Graph represents a model landfill operating 280 days/yr with a working face of 10,000 sq. ft. * Dashed line represents the difference between airspace consumed using 6 inches of soil cover versus 1/4 inch of ProGuard II. Cost savings are based on 34,568 cy/yr of conserved airspace using ProGuard II versus 6 inches of soil. Cross referencing your tipping fee in the graph will give you your annual value of airspace saved.

Superior to six inches of soil

In laboratory tests to determine permeation ratings for migrating gases and water, ProGuard II performed better than 6 inches (15 cm) of claying soil.

Our products receive a rating of nonhazardous (0 rating) for health, fire and reactivity. No oral, inhalation, or other hazards are indicated on the products' Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS).

Analysis with the standards established for the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) test proved no detection in every category.
