Legacy Landfill·Puri Municipality, Odisha

100% odour removed in 15 minutes at a mixed legacy dumpsite.

One of the earliest OED deployments (2019). On a site of 80% non-biodegradable and 20% biodegradable waste, foul smell was removed completely within 15 minutes and organic volume fell 60%.

Challenge

A mixed-composition dumpsite produced intense odour affecting the surrounding town, with slow natural decomposition of the biodegradable fraction.

Approach

OED was applied across the heap and inspected on follow-up visits, targeting the biodegradable load driving the smell.

Outcome

Complete odour removal within 15 minutes at demonstration, followed by a 60% reduction in organic waste volume — establishing an early, repeatable proof point.

“The smell was gone within fifteen minutes of the demonstration. That is what convinced us.”
