One of largest in Europe, which has been used for more than 40 years to deposit waste from Serbia’s capital, Belgrade, is Vinča landfill. A revitalization and extension this landfill was proposed would allow its sustainable operation future. The project considered building a capping...

Background, Aims, and Scope. Historically, built areas were ignored in soil mapping and in studies of soil formation and behaviour. It is now recognized that these areas, and therefore their soils, are of prime importance to human populations. Another trend is the large increase in reclaimed lands and new uses for old industrial areas. In several countries there are active projects to map such ...

Modern unceasing processes of dehumification and degradation arable soils require the search for new non-traditional approaches to solving this global environmental problem, which determines relevance research. After all, plowing significantly disrupts thermodynamic interaction soil with factors. The purpose publication is consider regularities evolution properties pedosphere from a geosystem p...

Landfill covers are critical to waste containment, yet field performance of specific cover designs has not been well documented and seldom been compared in side-by-side testing. A study was conducted to assess the ability of landfill final covers to control percolation into underlying waste. Conventional covers employing resistive barriers as well as alternative covers relying on water-storage ...
