Dipole-dipole resistivity and ground penetrating radar(GPR) surveys were performed on an abandoned landfill site filled with asbestos containing material. The main purpose of the study was to estimate spatial extension and volume of the landfill for evaluting the cost for developing appropriate remedial alternatives. Assuming that the bedrock is within 10 m depth, dipole spacings of 2, 2.5 and 5m were set for six survey lines for resistivity measurements. For More detailed information, GPR suvey using 225 Mhz antenna was carried out for twelve survey lines for the shallower information. DC resistivity structures showed few tens ~ hundreds ohm-m for the landfill or alluvial laver, and 1,000~ 5,000 ohm-m for the bedrock. The depth to bedrock is found out to be approximately 5m. GPR survey results represented very clear reflection and/or diffraction events from the boundaries as well as from the blocky construction wastes. With high-resolution GPR survey, depth of the bedrock was resolved up to 2m, which in turn, could be a good indicator for estimating the volume of the landfill. Those depths of bedrock were confirmed by backhoe excavation data for 13 sites. The total area and volume of the landfill were to be approximately 3,953 .$m^2$ and 4,033 $m^3$, respectively.

이 글에서는 폐기물의 분류 및 정의, 수거.운반 기술, 전처리 기술에서부터 중간처리기술로서 소각 및 기타 퇴비화, 메탄발효, 열분해, 고체연료, 사료화, 알콜발효, 식용작물재배 기술 그리고 최종처분기술로서 매립기술 및 해양티기 등 폐기물 처리기술의 전반을 포괄적으로 살펴보았다. 폐기물은 마치 인간의 삶을 대변이나 하듯이 복잡다다한 성분을 포함하고 있어서 중간처리 및 최종처분기술의 개발에만 노력을 기울일 수는 없으며, 정확한 분류와 수거 및 운반 체계의 최 적화, 그리고 수거된 폐기물의 선별을 포함하는 전처리 조작등이 폐기물 구성성분의 특성에 맞는 처리기술과 함께 유기적으로 연계되도록 해야 하며, 이를 위한 총체적 폐기물관리시스템의 토 착화는 아무리 강조해도 지나치지 않는다. 아울러 폐기물 처리의 공학적인 측면이외에도 국민의 절대적인 협조와 정책적인 뒷받침이 선행될 때만이 이 땅에서 폐기물처리로 인한 문제가 사라질 수 있을 것이며, 환경기술을 또다른 국제무역장벽의 하나로 구체화하려는 그린라운드(G.R.; green round)에 적극적으로 대웅하여 폐기물처리기술을 포함한 여타 환경기술을 세계화하고 수출하는 계기도 마련되어지리라 판단된다.

The electrical resistivity prospecting method with dipole-dipole array was applied to the Mooreung landfill site in order to survey the existence of leachate around the landfill site. Moreover, if there is leachate within Mooreung landfill site, the analysis of potential pathways to exterior environments was tried. Within the landfill site, the over-all characteristics of the electrical resistivity anomalies suggest that the leachate induced from the landfill materials has infiltrated the basement rock and fill the pores of basement rock in some parts of the landfill site. The consistency of the anomaly locations (left part of each survey line), anomaly geometries, and absolute resistivity value of anomaly through the 3 survey lines suggests that the resistivity anomaly be connected from the upstream to the downstream and correspond to the leachate material. Finally, the result from the electrical resistivity survey line near the gateway of the landfill site suggests that some of the leachate induced from landfill material leaks to the exterior groundwater system. It is necessary that more surveys using both geochemical and geophysical methods should be performed to find out potential pathways and depths of the leachate more precisely.

The small-loop electromagnetic (EM) survey is an effective method to delineate contamination areas and pathways of contaminant plumes from landfill. A multi-frequency small-loop EM survey was applied to find them at landfill area, located in delta region, and checked the results with in-situ surveys including 24 trench excavations and 12 drilling boreholes. The correlation between these two results indicates this survey would be suitable to investigate the contamination area. However, it would be difficult to analyze low resistivity less than 10 ohm-m below 10 m depth in delta area without drilling survey because of a limitation to expand the penetration depth lower than 10 m depth due to the separation of 1.66 m between the two coils of GEM-2.

The potentiality of water treatment sludge as the alternative liner and cover materials in landfills is investigated. A series of tests were performed on sludge admixtures to examine their compaction, compressive strength, leaching, hydraulic conductivity characterisit its and the compatibility with representative leachate within landfills. Results from the tests show that low hydraulic conductivity can berachieved with sufficient stabilizer contents and curing. It is recognized that the hydrauac conductivity decreases with increasing bentonite content and the percentage of bentonite needed to make the hydrauic conductivity below 1$\times$10-7cm/ sec was 40% for water treatment sludge. It was found that the effect of the municipal waste leachate on the hydraulic conductivity of the admixtures is negligible.

The final disposal method for asbestos building materials is to be landfilled at a designated waste landfill in accordance with the Waste Management Act. However, it is difficult to secure a domestic designated waste landfill site to landfill the entire amount of asbestos waste, which is expected to emit more than 400,000 ton/year by 2044. In this study, a detoxification treatment was performed on a ceiling tex with a density of 1.0 to 1.2g/cm³ containing 3 to 7% of chrysotile, and it was used as a reinforcing fiber for extruded panels. It was confirmed that asbestos components were detoxified through the reaction process using 30% oxalic acid and carbon dioxide, and it was recognized that these detoxifying properties were maintained even after extrusion molding. However, it was found that milling to a fiber size of less than 1mm for complete detoxification of asbestos resulted in a decrease in reinforcing performance. Therefore, in the case of using detoxified asbestos fibers in the extrusion molding process, it is considered desirable to add fibers with a length of 5mm or more to improve the reinforcing performance.

The objective of this study was to assess the effects of methanogenic bacteria-activated leachate recirculation method for enhancing waste stabilization and landfill gas production from a solid waste landfill. To simulate a conventional landfill (Lys-A), a landfill recirculated only fresh leachate (Lys-B), and two landfills recirculated leachate after pretreating with ASBR (Lys-C and Lys-D), four lysimeters were operated over a period of 4 years. Lys-D was recirculated two times of pretreated leachate volume than that of Lys-C. In the case of the landfill recirculated only fresh leachate and the landfill recirculated leachate after pretreating with ASBR, methane productions were increased until about 600 days, but there were not effect of leachate recirculation for enhancing methane production after about 600 days. It was assumed that leachate recirculation into fewer biodegradable organic wastes had not effect to enhance landfill gas production. Lys-C and Lys-D showed the highest performance for enhancing cumulative methane yield as well as acceleration waste stabilization. In cumulative methane yield, Lys-C (35.51 mL $CH_4/g$ VS) and Lys-D (36.12 mL $CH_4/g$ VS) were much higher than Lys-A (28.37 mL $CH_4/g$ VS) and Lys-B (30.07 mL $CH_4/g$ VS). In case of between Lys-B and Lys-C with the same recirculation rate, COD concentration in Lys-C was more rapidly decreased compared with that in Lys-B. This was attributed to the presence of methanogenic bacteria as well as dilution of inhibitory substances by the methanogenic bacteria-activated leachate recirculation. Therefore, the landfill recirculated leachate after pretreating with ASBR was found to be the most appropriate operating techniques for enhancing waste stabilization and landfill gas production.

It can be known that from leachate generated in the initial stage of landfill there are a lot of undecomposed orgainc materials, its sulfur component reduces to sulfide ion by sulfur reducing microorgarnisms as an anaerobic digestion proceeds, the sulfide ion makes the leachate discolor to black by forming metal sulfide sol, on condition that much more equivalent of sulfide ion than that of metal ion is present, and the metal sulfide sol can be generated to the precipitates by forming black-colored particulates. Therefore, we can confirm the important possibility for the economic and efficient treatment of leachate that it can be passivated, provided that much more equivalent of sulfide ion is present in the reaction of sulfide ion and metal ion.

In this paper, the retardation capacity of marine clay and weathered soil of seashore waste landfill is analyzed by using a laboratory column apparatus for organic and inorganic components which can represent the components of the leachate of municipal waste landfill. The results show that sorption capacity marine clay for potassium is larger than that of weathered soil. Lead and cadmium are adsorbed completely at concentrations higher than the real concentrations developed in the landfill. The bottom soils of seashore landfill can also retard some nondegradable components of organics although their sorption capacities for organics were less than those for inorganics.
