Physical Characterization and Geotechnical Properties of Municipal Solid Waste
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is complex refuse consisting of various materials with different properties. Some of the components are stable while others degrade as a result of biological and chemical processes. Leachate resulting from this is hazardous pollutant to the soil and ground water underlying. Leaching of this leachate and heavy metals into the soil leads to the contamination of both so...
متن کاملGeotechnical hazards associated with closed municipal solid waste landfill sites
As pressure for new infrastructure and development grows, it is inevitable that building projects will encounter some of the c20,000 closed former solid waste landfills in the UK, many of which will have accepted municipal solid wastes (MSW). Construction on or across these sites brings a special set of geohazards associated with the potential for large and difficult to predict settlements, gas...
متن کاملGeotechnical Behaviour of Fine Sand Mixed with Pond Ash and Lime
The present work has been carried out to study the effect of lime and pond ash on geotechnical behaviour of fine sand. Fine sand found in deserts and near sea shores is not readily suitable for supporting buildings and roads, as it is loose and vulnerable to collapse upon wetting. Fine sand having high permeability and low shear strength is also not suitable for earthen dam construction. For th...
متن کاملInvestigation of copper sorption by sugar beet processing lime waste.
In the western United States, sugar beet processing for sugar recovery generates a lime-based waste product (∼250,000 Mg yr) that has little liming value in the region's calcareous soils. This area has recently experienced an increase in dairy production, with dairies using copper (Cu)-based hoof baths to prevent hoof diseases. A concern exists regarding soil Cu accumulation because spent hoof ...
متن کاملMunicipal Waste Landfill Site Selection based on Environmental, Geological and Geotechnical Multi-criteria: A Case Study
Waste management is a complex and detailed process that involves evaluation of certain important factors, such as a geological, geotechnical, hydrological, hydrogeological, climate, urban management, environmental, along with social, cultural, and psychological parameters. Unfortunately, in Iran, there is minimal evaluation of initial parameters and in some cases even don’t exist. The purpose o...
