Euronews-Futuris has released a new video on the topic of Enhanced Landfill Mining. What is rubbish for most people, waste is seen as a treasure trove to scientists and waste managers.

NEW-MINE animation video explains the complex ELFM flow sheet: from the mining of landfilled Municipal Solid Waste until the conversion into recyclables and high-added value outputs

A unique event “NEW-MINERS meet locals” took place to initiate a fruitful dialogue between the NEW-MINE ESRs/Supervisors and the so-called ‘DE Locals’ group of the Remo landfill site in Houthalen, Belgium.

EURELCO partner KU Leuven launched a highly original animation film on the zero-waste valorisation of red mud landfills. Former MTV Star Ray Cokes, Europe’s most famous landfill mining entertainer, reveals how the red mud problem can be turned into a resource...

The first ever ELFM seminar in the European Parliament, organised by two Flemish MEPs (Vautmans & Demesmaeker) and EURELCO, featured speakers from four DGs (ENV, ENERGY, GROW and RTD) along with leading actors from industry, academia and public bodies.

Digging for garbage is a short film, with former MTV star Ray Cokes, intended for a wide audience to raise awareness with respect to the benefits of ELFM. For the first time ever a fanfare enters the bowels of a semi-excavated landfill, providing incredible scenes.

Terzake interviewed Peter Tom Jones (president EURELCO) and Yves Tielemans (Group Machiels). Although it seems unthinkable now, in the past waste in Flanders was just dumped on landfill sites. Millions of tons of waste. A part of the waste is now being  valorised. 

Tegenlicht, the renowned Future Affairs program on the Dutch channel VPRO featured a unique documentary on landfill mining. Our waste is worth money. Recovering it has started up a new global industry. It appears to be the solution for many of our resource needs.

In this two-part documentary, Dirk Draulans was looking for Flemish cleantech innovation: high technology at the service of ecological sustainability. The documentary shows that ELFM is a part of the transition to a low-carbon, circular, resilient economy.
