EXPERIENCE

Since 1997, Rochem has treated nearly two billion gallons of leachate at multiple sites in North America. With over 500 systems installed worldwide, our experience is unmatched. Our technology is proven, reliable and economical. Rochem Americas, Inc. is the US distributor for the Rochem Group and has been providing leachate treatment systems worldwide since 1988.

Rochem’s modules and elements are the only reverse osmosis modules designed for treating landfill leachate. Rochem’s advanced technology is proven to remove organic and inorganic compounds efficiently, and economically, with a long membrane and system life. The oldest operating Rochem system in the United States is located near Bradford, PA and has been in continuous operation since 1998

A process designed specifically for leachate

The Rochem technology has been designed from the beginning specifically for treating landfill leachate. From the design of the Rochem TS modules through the design of the system flow path and controls, all efforts have been made to optimize the system for leachate. No part of the system has been repurposed from clean water systems.

Higher recovery rate – lower residuals

The Rochem system is designed to offer high recovery rates and the recovery rate can be varied based on the influent leachate. By providing a system that will operate at a minimum of 75% recovery on the design leachate, and eliminating a pre-treatment system, the overall volume of residuals will be minimized and the amount of effluent from the system maximized.
