Hazardous Waste Landfills

The most important German administrative regulations for the disposal of hazardous waste are described. In addition, some constructions at the landfill at Raindorf are introduced which have been installed to meet the demands of these regulations. Resulting from these experiences, several recommendations for the design and the construction of a modern, hazardous waste landfill are given.

Hierarchy Process

Hazardous wastes include various types of chemicals and other wastes generated from industrialand other sources. Because of the complexity of waste management systems, the selection of theappropriate solid waste landfill site requires consideration of multiple alternative solutions andevaluation criteria. This paper investigated the utilization of the fuzzy logic in combination withAnalytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique by applying GIS and IDRISI programming for choosinghazardous waste landfill site in Nahavand, Iran. Based on the real conditions of the study area, weconsidered economic, biological and topographical factors (12 criteria). The candidate sites weredetermined based on the criteria weights. The best location was determined via the fuzzy logic andthe AHP methods. This study found that the combination of fuzzy logic and the AHP method was thebest option for selecting a site for hazardous waste landfill. In the end, 6 suitable areas were selectedfor a hazardous waste landfill in the city. This study verified that the combination of the AHP methodwith fuzzy logic using GIS in our project is a powerful tool for solid waste landfill site selection.

Hazardous Waste Landfill

Risk-based method has been increasingly frequently used by regulators and managers in modern landfill to scientifically manage solid waste and reduce its environmental hazards. As far as hazardous waste landfill is concerned, the main risk can be identified as the leakage of leachate. To quantify the uncertainties and its influences on risk assessment of leachate leakage, EPACMTP model with the involvement of Monte Carlo method is used to propagate the randomness of input parameters; Fault tree analysis method is employed to compute the uncertainties of liner damage; and the last, health risk assessment model was also integrated into to form a holistic model of leakage risk assessment.. A hazards waste landfill located in the southwest China is taken as a case study. The assessment result indicates that 1) the main exposure pathway is oral intake;2) The total non-carcinogenic risks for adult and for child are, accordingly, equal to 0.68 and 0.75, which under most circumstance is acceptable.
