In November 2015 FCE was pleased to agree terms with eThekwini Municipality’s Durban Solid Waste for the monitoring, operation, and maintenance of the Buffelsdraai Landfill gas extraction plant. As the contractor responsible for the construction of the plant, FCE is well-placed to provide the continuation of good service and quality product that we have become known for.

FCE was excited to commission the landfill gas extraction plant (wells, flare and blower system) at Buffelsdraai Landfill for eThekwini Municipality’s Durban Solid Waste. The step signalled the completion of the R3.6m construction project carried out by FCE at Buffelsdraai Landfill.

Due to a lack of waste in the landfill, gas production is limited and monitoring and operations of the extraction system only commenced in March 2016, with full monitoring and reporting being carried out by FCE’s trained staff.
