The Efficiency of an Integrated Program Using Falconry to Deter Gulls from Landfills
Gulls are commonly attracted to landfills, and managers are often required to implement cost-effective and socially accepted deterrence programs. Our objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of an intensive program that integrated the use of trained birds of prey, pyrotechnics, and playback of gull distress calls at a landfill located close to a large ring-billed gull (Larus delawarensis) co...
متن کاملPost-closure Care Completion at Msw Landfills and Residual Risks
(2011) " Post-closure care completion at MSW landfills and residual risks " , In: Proceedings 4th International Workshop " Hydro-physico-mechanics of landfills (HPM4) " , SUMMARY: In this work we present a modelling approach to evaluate residual environmental risks in view of different post-closure management strategies. Potential emission rates of a landfill are estimated based on different sc...
متن کاملLandfill Gas System Considerations at High-btu Landfills
There are generally three broad categories of landfill-gas-to-energy (LFGTE) projects: electric power generation, medium-BTU industrial fuel; and high-BTU pipeline gas. During initial feasibility studies, landfill owners and developers should weigh the advantages of each with regard to the technology, local markets, landfill conditions, and site proximity to potential users. There has been an i...
متن کاملExperimental Determination of Cover Surface Temperature Functions at MSW Landfills
Cover temperatures were measured at four MSW landfills located in different climatic regions in North America: Michigan, New Mexico, Alaska, and British Columbia. Temperature measurements were made on a weekly basis throughout the depth of the cover profiles extending from the surface into the top layers of the underlying wastes. Bias was produced in the surface temperature data due to the comb...
متن کاملParametric sensitivity analysis of leachate transport simulations at landfills.
This paper presents a case study in simulating leachate generation and transport at a 2000 ton/day landfill facility and assesses leachate migration away from the landfill in order to control associated environmental impacts, particularly on groundwater wells down gradient of the site. The site offers unique characteristics in that it is a former quarry converted to a landfill and is planned to...
