A conceptual framework for the analysis of settlement and other processes in landfilled
waste in relation to coupled hydraulic, biodegradation and mechanical behaviour is …

The sustainable landfilling concept has several advantages over conventional waste
management practices in addressing various socio-economic and environmental concerns …

Original laboratory setups are used to study the moisture retention properties of municipal
solid waste taking into account the porous medium's structural evolution from compression …

Landfill bioreactors are based on an acceleration of in-situ waste biodegradation by
performing leachate recirculation. To quantify the water content and to evaluate the leachate …

The re-introduction of leachate back into the waste can play an important part in landfill
management. It can encourage biodegradation by raising the water content and transporting …

Active gas control systems are commonly used in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills and
the design of such systems requires thorough understanding of the gas flow pattern. A …

The present study is an application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to the numerical
simulation of landfill aeration systems. Specifically, the CFD algorithms provided by the …

Leachate recirculation is a key process in the operation of municipal solid waste landfills as
bioreactors. To ensure optimal water content distribution, bioreactor operators need tools to …

Unsaturated flow modelling of landfill hydraulics is a potentially valuable tool for the
prediction of leachate discharge rates, design of leachate control systems and simulation of …

The science of understanding fluid flow in waste materials is both complicated and in a state
of evolution. In general, however, it is possible to apply soil mechanics and hydrogeological …
