It involves covering the waste with layers of geomembrane and geotextile. This is followed by a protective layer of soil where vegetation like lawn, trees, and bushes can thrive. This approach will be applied to 15 hectares of land, effectively addressing waste accumulated over the past two decades.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Encapsulation stands out as an optimal solution for managing existing waste. By effectively sealing off the waste, it curtails the release of greenhouse gases such as methane, nitrous oxides, and sulphur oxides into the atmosphere. This containment significantly contributes to mitigating the adverse effects of global warming and climate change.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Embracing encapsulation not only transforms wastelands into green spaces but also plays a vital role in environmental conservation by minimizing harmful emissions. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8a2119d e-con-full e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child\" data-id=\"8a2119d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1132721 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1132721\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DJI_0005-min-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-416\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DJI_0005-min-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DJI_0005-min-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DJI_0005-min-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DJI_0005-min-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DJI_0005-min-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DJI_0005-min-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1cbac4f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1cbac4f\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-87e145d e-con-full e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child\" data-id=\"87e145d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2bbd3d6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2bbd3d6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" src=\"https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/dji_fly_20251013_111611_0_1760349687359_photo-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-853\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/dji_fly_20251013_111611_0_1760349687359_photo-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/dji_fly_20251013_111611_0_1760349687359_photo-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/dji_fly_20251013_111611_0_1760349687359_photo-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/dji_fly_20251013_111611_0_1760349687359_photo-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/geopomona.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/dji_fly_20251013_111611_0_1760349687359_photo-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f30136b e-con-full e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f30136b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2dc547e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2dc547e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" id=\"sorting\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Sorting Plant<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-236e81f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"236e81f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The waste sorting plant is a crucial step in adhering to the principles of waste management hierarchy and our commitment to the &#8220;Zero-Waste to Landfill&#8221; policy.
