In this study, the evaluation for effective utilization of waste landfill was performed by field test to use waste landfill as construction site(Nangido in Seoul). This site had been formed by dredging the household waste, building debris and industrial waste for fifteen years(78'3~93'3). The site where dynamic compaction test was divided by 4 yards. Yard-1, 2 were not eliminated widening of cover soil and Yard-3, 4 were eliminated it. Dynamic Compaction Pilot Test was carried out by the 15ton heavy tamper with drop height of 20m in Yard-1, 3 and with drop height of 15m in Yard-2, 4. We evaluated the compaction efficiency, optimum compaction number and noise vibration through field test, monitoring. As a result, if the countermeasures against vibration and noise by the method utilize, the dynamic compaction method is suitable for using in waste landfill as a construction site among the ground improvement method.

Modern waste management units, so-called "landfills" protect human health and environment from hazardous leachate and gas. Accordingly, it must be constructed with a bottom liner system that includes a gas collection layer. Leachate is the contaminated liquid that drains from the waste material pollutes ground water. For this reason. bottom liner system must have durability and low hydraulic conductivity (in case of compacted clay liner, no more than $1{\times}10^{-7}cm/sec$ ). P county in Kangwon province constructed a solid waste landfill with bottom liner system. In this study. it is mainly introduced that the test results on construction and quality control of bottom liner system by "Multiple composite liner construction technology", which is selected for bottom liner system in P solid waste landfill.

The effects of ground water level, shear strength parameters of refuse, and geological condition of ground on the slope stability of uncontrolled waste landfill were studied. The Janbu method of slices based on the limit equilibrium method was used to calculate the minimum factor of safety with respect to slope stability of landfill. The analytical results showed that the factor of safety for a fully dried condition of landfill increased 2.4~2.8 times as great as that for a fully saturated condition of landfill. Under the condition of actual ground water level, the factor of safety linearly increased with increasing both cohesion and internal friction angle of refuse. Also, when the potential failure surface passed through the underlying layer, the factor of safety and shape of potential failure surface were found to depend on geological conditions of underlying layer.

The comparative analysis on physico-chemical characteristics of municipal solid waste from dwelling site and landfill site were performed to provide the fundamental information of waste management in Chungju city. It was analysed and evaluated the bulk density, physical component, three major component, chemical component, and heating value of MSW. The physical components depended on the sampling site in dwelling site and landfill site. But, by the ultimate analysis, the chemical composition was almost similar to result for municipal solid waste from dwelling site and landfill site. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the physical components according to sampling site for the MBT to introduce for combustible municipal solid waste pre-treatment, but it needs the chemical composition from landfill site to design the incinerator. The physical composition showed that the combustible and the noncombustible occupied 87.4% and 12.6% respectively. In case of three component analysis, the moisture, the combustible, and the ash were 27.6, 60.5, 11.9% respectively. The chemical composition through the element analysis were C (50.1%), H (6%), O (39.5%), N (1.9%), S (0.5%), and Cl (1.3%).

The industrial waste is becoming a big problem in the aspect of spatial and environmental in domestic and international. Therefore, the waste reduction and recycling policy has been being implemented as a way to solve this problem. The engineered stone sludge, which is waste, is generated duing the engineered stone production process. since engineered stone sludge is mostly treated by landfill, an increase in the amount of the sludge leads to an increase in landfill sites and treatment costs. therefore, there is a need for a method of resourcization with engineered stone sludge. So, laboratory tests (Plastic and liquid limits, compaction, unconfined compression and permeability test) were conducted to confirm the possibility of using engineered stone sludge mixed with weathered granite soil as a cover material for landfill in this study. The result shows that the mixed soil material with less that 62.5% of engineered stone sludge can be used as a cover material for landfill.

In this study, it was analysed physical characteristics, TS, moisture, C/N ratio, leaching test, and element analysis in landfill wastes of 10 years old without landfill pretreatment. The Organic material content was 7.2%~23.5% and soil was the main inorganic materials which it's rate was 54.1%~71.0%, in landfill wastes. The results of TS, VS, and moisture were represented 51.5%~68.1%, 23.6%~56.1%, 32.0%~48.4%, respectively. The analysis of hazardous materials did not indicate Hg, $Cr^{+6}$, CN, Organic Phosphorus, TCE and PCE, however the Pb of leaching materials showed 0.023~0.092 mg/L, which was the highest. As the result of the element analysis, C was 47.74%~56.72%, N was 4.09%~9.92%, the C/N ratio was 5.76~12.57 and the result of soils around landfill was the highest heavy material, Pb, 2.465 mg/kg~10.251 mg/kg. The objectives of this paper are to investigate states, stabilization of these closed landfills and to gain suitable data for post-closure care using some parameters through analysis of landfill environment.

This study was performed to evaluate characteristics of illegally dumped wastes in the riversides of Nakdong river found during dredging of Nakdong river. Precise classification of the wastes found in the riversides is essential to proper treatment of the wastes. We tried to determine whether these wastes contained toxic compounds and stabilized. Wastes were found at 27 sampling points out of 159 segments investigated and these wastes were not classified as toxic wastes. In addition, clay soils were found at 60 sampling points, and these soils were not classified as wastes. Thus, these soils are thought to be recycled as construction materials. Some samples were not stabilized, which means biodegradation was still progressed in these areas.

최근 몇년전 부터 폐기물 처리와 관련하여 소각로에 대한 관심과 연구가 부쩍 늘어나고 있다. 이는 인구의 증가, 산업의 발전, 경제활동의 팽창 및 다양화 등에 의하여 폐기물의 질적 변화가 적정처리에도 영향을 미쳐 큰 문제로 대두되고 있고, 또한 폐기물의 단순 매립처리가 사후 관리에 여러가지의 어려움과 매립지 선정 자체에도 어려움이 따르고 있기 때문이기도 하다. 그러나 소각기술이 아직도 보완되어야 할 부분들이 많기 때문에 현재 가동중인 소각시설에도 많은 어려운 문제점이 발생하고 이들의 문제해결이 시급한 것이 현재의 현실이다. 심한 경우에는 폐기물 처리목적으로 많은 투자를 하여도 폐기물의 특성에 따른 적정 처리시설을 선정하지 않아 소각로 가동 시운전 단계에서도 중지하여야 하는 경우도 발생하고 있다. 반면 적은 투자로도 만족할 만한 처리효과를 내며 가동하는 경우도 있어 당초 계획단계 부터 신중을 기해야할 것이다. 소각로는 외부로 보기에는 거의 비슷하나 상세히 검토하면 소각로에 대한 선택적 기술이 필요하며 특히 소각로를 사용하는 목적이 무엇인지에 따라서 소각로의 선택이 달라질 수도 있다. 이러한 문제에 초점을 두어 현재의 소각기술을 분석하고 선정과정을 검토해 나가기로 한다.

고분자 폐기물을 처리하는 방법은 크게 재이용, 소각, 매립 등으로 나눌 수 있으나 재이용이나 매립 방법은 폐기물의 급속한 증가를 감당하기에 한계가 있다. 소각은 폐기물의 감량화와 폐열 회수의 이중 효과를 얻을 수 있는 가장 일반적이고 손쉬운 방법이긴 하지만 폐고무나 폐합성 수지와 같은 고분자폐기물을 직접 소각할 때에는 많은 유해가스, 분진과 매연이 발생하는 어려 움이 따른다. 건류소각 방식은 이러한 직접 소각의 단점을 보완해 주는 것으로 최근 각광을 받고 있으나 안전성, 유지관리 및 시설비 등의 면에서 뿐만 아니라 기술적인 면에서도 아직 많은 연 구가 요구되고 있다. 열분해 또는 건류 가스화에 관한 연구는 석탄에 대하여 활발하게 이루어져 왔으며 1960년대에는 심각한 환경오염을 겪으면서 폐기물 처리에 대한 응용이 시작되었다. 1970년대부터 미국에서는 EPA(environmental protection agency)의 주도로 도시쓰레기에서 가스, 기름 등을 회수하는 기술개발을 강력히 추진하였으며 일본에서도 통상산업성 산하 공업기술원의 도시쓰레기 열분해 처리 기술 개발을 시작으로 2차공해 감소를 선결 과제로 한 여러 가지 프로 세스를 개발해 왔다. 국내에서는 최근에들어 연구가 비교적 활발하게 이루어 지고 있다. 특히 동력자원부 주관의 대체에너지 사업의 일환으로 추진중인 폐기물의 에너지화 이용에 관한 연구 중에서도 열분해나 건류 가스화에 관련된 연구가 많은 비중을 차지하고 있다.

To promote the carbon emission trading scheme and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emission as following 'Korean GHG & Energy Target Management System', GHG emissions should be accurately determined in each industrial sector. For the estimation method of GHG emission from waste landfill, there are several error parameters, therefore we reviewed the estimation method and proposed a revised method. Methane generation from landfill must be calculated by the selected method based on methane recovery rate, 0.75. However, this methodology is not considered about uncertainty factor. So it is desirable that $CH_4$ generation is estimated using first order decay model and methane recovery should use field monitoring data. If not, $CH_4$ recovery could be applied from other study results; 0.60 of operational landfill with gas vent and flaring system, 0.65 of operational site with landfill gas recovery system, 0.90 of closed landfill with final cover. Other parameters such as degradable organic carbon (DOC) and fraction of DOC decompose ($DOC_f$) need to derive the default value from studies to reflect a Korean waste status. Proper application of MCF that is selected by operation and management of landfill requires more precise criteria.
