Large-scale simulated lysimeter experiments were conducted for 4 years as a fundamental study to develop enhanced landfill stabilization method, which accelerate stabilization time and make efficient practical use of self-purification capacity of pollutants in semi-aerobic solid waste landfill. The amount of TOC(total organic carbon) decomposition increased as the landfill depth increased. In case of T-N(total nitrogen), the self-purification capacity increased linearly with the landfill thickness until it reached a maximum level of 6 m. Beyond this level, the self-purification capacity was not increased. The results from lysimeter experiments indicate that 6m of landfill thickness is optimum for self-purification capacity of pollutants considering the mass balance of TOC and T-N.

매립장 침출수로 인해 오염된 매립장 주변 지하수 정화를 위한 실내실험을 실시하였다. 오염물로는 대표적 염화용제인 TCE와 PCE, 그리고 중금속인 As, Cd, Cr, Pb에 대하여 Air-sparging, 오존 산화법, 화학적 처리방법에 의한 정화효율 실험을 실시하였다. Air-sparging은 TCE, PCE에서 높은 제거효율을 가졌으며, 오존 산화법은 Cr, Pb에서 제거 효율이 좋았다. 반응제를 첨가한 공침방법의 경우, 모든 중금속에 대하여 소석회 첨가시 매우 높은 제거효율을 보였으며, As는 황산제일철에서, Cd, Cr, Pb는 탄산칼슘과 제올라이트 첨가시 높은 제거효율을 나타내었다. 실험결과로부터, 유기오염물과 중금속이 혼합되어 나타나는 매립장 주변 오염 지하수의 경우 휘발성 유기오염물의 제거를 위해서는 폭기방법이, 중금속의 경우에는 공침방법에 의해 수산화물, 탄산염으로 만들어 고형물로 처리하는 방법이 제거효과가 좋은 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, we stabilized the screened soil from landfills by using aerobic bioreactor and evaluated aerobic decomposition of it. Four lab-scale bioreactors (anaerobic and 1 PV/day aeration, 5 PV/day aeration, 10 PV/day aeration) filled with screened soil were operated to investigate the effect of air injection quantity on stabilization of screened soil. In case of aerobic bioreactors, the decomposition of organics in screened soil was higher than anaerobic bioreactor. According to the results of landfill gas and soil respiration test, the air injection quantity of 5 PV/day was most efficient in stabilization of screened soil.

In Korea, it is required to install the final cover layer immediately after the end of use of the waste landfill, and to conduct aftercare for 30 years. However, the installation of the final cover layer minimizing the penetration of the rainfall will delay the decomposition of the buried organic wastes and reduce the amount of pollutants released into the leachate. Therefore, at the end of the aftercare period, pollutants might be discharged and cause the pollution of the surrounding environment. In this study, using lab-scale lysimeters, the amount of pollutants discharged into the leachate was observed. At the initial stage, same artificial rainfall was injected, and after 7 months later, different reduced artificial rainfall was injected for 8.4 months assuming as the final soil layer was installed. From the results, it was advantageous in terms of environmental management after the end of the aftercare period to install a temporary cover layer that permits the infiltration of rainfall to some extent rather than to install the final cover layer immediately after the end of use of the waste landfill.

The objective of this research was to assess the effect of moisture content and water injection method into the landfill on waste decomposition in an aerobic landfill. Firstly, respirometric experiments were performed in order to assess the effect of initial moisture content (20%, 30%, 40% and 50% respectively) on landfilled waste decomposition. The cumulative oxygen uptake and oxygen uptake rate were highly increased with the increase of initial moisture content. Secondly, lysimeter experiments showed that in comparison with the vertical injection method, dry fog system enhanced decomposition of organic wastes. Also, dry fog system provided uniform moisture distribution more than the vertical injection method within landfill.

In order to investigate the applicability and suitability of the industrial by-products to apply mono-layer cover system for non-sanitary landfill sites, 6 different industrial by-products, such as construction waste, bottom ash, gypsum, blast furnace and steel manufacture slags, and stone powder sludge, were evaluated. Various physicochemical and hydrodynamic properties of the industrial byproducts were investigated. The environmental safety was monitored using batch and long-term leaching tests as well. In addition, the flexibility of plants was observed by cultivating them in the industrial by-products. The results for physicochemical properties indicate that most of the materials considered appeared to be suitable for landfill cover. Particularly, the concentration levels of hazardous elements regulated by the Korean Law for Waste Management did not exceed the regulatory limits in all target materials. In addition, the concentrations of regulated elements for the Korean Soil Conservation Law were examined below the regulatory limits in most of materials considered, except for the stone powder sludge. The results of batch and long-term experiments showed bottom ash and construction waste were the most suitable materials for landfill cover among the industrial by-products considered. The results of plant studies indicate that the bottom ash among industrial by-products considered was most effective in developing vegetation on landfill site, showing fast germination and large growth index. At the final covering system made of mixture of soil and bottom ash, the optimum application rate of farmyard manure was observed to be 40-50 Mg/ha.

It is difficult to accurately predict each flow rate of landfill gas and leachate extracted from many of wells, which have been completed into a waste landfill containing gas and water. However it may be approximately predicted if we can define only relative fluid permeability of gas and leachate flowing through landfill porous media. Therefore numerical simulation using multi-phase flow equations makes use of ei s input data of the relative permeability which is measured and calculated in laboratory environment like in-situ, and consequently we can quantitatively obtain each flow rate of gas and leachate from collection wells. These series of technologies can provide with the important informations to determine the success or failure of landfill gas energy and landfill stabilization. This paper analyses the characteristics of landfill gas collection by six classes of case studies for none described landfill.

본 연구에서는 펜톤산화반응에서 과산화수소의 분해촉매로 일반적으로 쓰이는 Fe(II) 형태의 철염대신 Fe$^{\circ}$형태의 분말 철을 이용한 펜톤유사반응(Fenton-like oxidation)에 의한 매립지 침출수(sCODcr 1,100 mg/L, pH 8)의 CODcr 제거특성에 관한 회분식 처리실험을 수행하였다. 실험조건으로는 상온, 상압조건에서 Jar tester를 사용하여 분말 철의 주입 량과 산 세척도, 초기 반응 pH, 과산화수소의 주입 량을 변화시켜가며 침출수의 CODcr 제거효율 의 변화를 관찰하였으며, 이때 과산화수소의 분해 특성과 반응 중 pH의 변화도 함께 분석하였다. 반응은 모든 조건에서 대부분 약 30분 이내에 종료되었으며 그 이후의 반응변화는 미미하였다. 산 세척에 의한 분말 철 표면의 개질로 반응성의 향상을 관찰할 수 있었으며, 분말 철 주입 량을 증가함에 따라 반응속도가 일정하게 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에 서 CODcr의 제거 효율에 가장 큰 영향을 보여준 실험변수는 pH 였으며, 원수의 pH(8)를 2-4까지 조절하여 반응을 시켰을 때 최대 75%의 CODcr 제거효율을 얻을 수 있었다. 반응중 pH는 모든 조건에서 시간에 따라 증가하여 약 pH 9에서 더 이상 변화하지 않았다. 용액내 과산화수소의 잔류농도의 곡선은 반응 중 CODcr의 곡선과 유사한 변화를 나타내었다.

Controlled low strength material (CLSM) is a flowable mixture and does not need to be compacted. It is produced by mixing portland cement, fly ash, fine aggregates, water and chemical admixtures. Sand is the most commonly used fine aggregates in the conventional CLSM, but it is getting more and more difficult to obtain sand in Korea. In this study, the characteristics of unconfined compressive strength, flow and applicability of a new CLSM that is produced by mixing of pond ash, fly ash, water, cement are examined. An unconfined compressive strength satisfies the standard unconfined compressive strength (0.5~1.0 MPa) were obtained when the mixture ratio of pond ash and fly ash is 30:70~70:30, cement ratio is 3.0~5.0%, and water content is 31~34%. The results of flow test indicate that the mixture ratio of pond ash and fly ash which satisfy the standard How value (0.2 m) is 30:70~70:30.

This study utilised Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) for preliminary assessment of mixing efficiencies of 2-phase fluids in a pipe at which a slurry flow and an injected solidifier join, for the purposes of reducing trial-and-error-based instances of physical experiments and conducting the overall research in an economical way. Using OpenFOAM$^{(R)}$, we simulated behavior of 3-phase fluids under 18 different settings generated by changing diameters of a dredged soil transportation pipe, a quality improving material injection pipe and the confluence angle. While difference in mixing efficiencies amongst the instances was insignificant, discernible boundary layers amongst the materials were observed in all of the instances. In order to break the boundary layers, we designed a substructure inside a pipe and found out that it could remarkably improve mixing efficiencies particularly for short distance applications.
