The fate of trace elements in soils, sediments, and surface waters is largely determined by
their binding to reactive components, of which organic matter, metal oxides, and clays are …

Here we evaluate the performance and limitations of two frequently used model-types to
predict trace element solubility in soils: regression based “partition-relations” and …

Although many countries are increasing their efforts to recycle and to re-use waste materials,
landfilling will still be needed in order to dispose of wastes which cannot be recycled or …

As part of a more circular economy, current attention on waste is shifting from landfilling

A novel, regulatory accepted approach is developed that enables competent authorities to
decide whether landfill aftercare can be reduced or terminated. Our previous paper (Brand …

Metals and metalloids are natural constituents of the environment of which many are
essential for living organisms. However above certain levels metals may become toxic …

A novel cement-polyurethane hybrid material invented to stop massive water ingress during
eg tunnel construction is presented in this study. A special emphasis is put on the leaching …

Recently, a project has been started in the Netherlands to investigate whether source-
oriented treatment techniques over a period of one or more decades will lead to a significant …

In Sweden, utilisation of incinerator residues outside disposal areas is restricted by
environmental concerns, as such residues commonly contain greater amounts of potentially …
