Biomining is the process of excavation, treatment, segregation and gainful utilization of aged municipal solid waste lying in dumpsites typically referred to as legacy waste.

The legacy waste is excavated and spread out into long, narrow piles called windrows.T he dry, stabilized waste is passed through a series of sieves called trommels.These machines sort the waste based on size.

Hence by using Bio-Mining, decades -old waste(legacy waste)from landfills has been processed and cleared, making the land available for man-use.
