The proper management of discarded electronic devices (often called electronic-waste) is an emerging issue for solid waste professionals throughout the world because of the large growth of the waste stream, and the content of toxic metals in them, most notably heavy metals such as lead. Notebook computers are becoming one of the major components of discarded computer devices and will continue to increase in the waste stream in the future. While the computers hold great promise for recycling, a substantial amount of this waste is often disposed in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills. The toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) is commonly used to simulate worse case leaching conditions where a potentially hazardous waste is assumed to be disposed along with municipal solid waste in a landfill with actively decomposing materials overlying an aquifer. The objective of this study was to examine leaching potential of lead from discarded notebook computers using the scale-up TCLP, other standard leaching tests such as California waste extraction test (Cal WET), and the synthetic precipitation leaching procedure (SPLP) and actual landfill leachates as leaching solution. The scale-up TCLP is a modified TCLP (where the device was disassembled and leached in or near entirety) to meet the intent of the TCLP. The results showed that the scale-up TCLP resulted in relatively high lead found in the leachate with an average of 23.3 mg/L. The average level was less than those by the standard TCLP and WET (37.0 mg/L and 86.0 mg/L, respectively), but much greater than those by the SPLP and the extractions with the landfill leachates (0.55 mg/L and 1.47 mg/L, respectively). The pH of the leaching solution and the ability of the organic acids in the TCLP and WET to complex with the lead were identified as major factors that controlled the amount of lead leached from notebook computers. Based on the results obtained by a number of leaching tests in this study, notebook computers may present a potential leaching risk to the environment and human health upon land disposal. However, further investigation is still needed to assess the true risk posed by the land disposal of discarded notebook computers.

A bench-scale continuous activated sludge system was operated in order to study the effects of solid waste landfill leachate on municipal wastewater treatment. The leachate sample was collected from Nanjido landfill. During the 7 weeks of operational period, the leachate content in the influent fed to the system was increased stepwise from 3% to 5% and 7%. The solids retention time was the major process control parameter, and it was 10 days. With the municipal wastewater alone, COD removal was 75%. The removal percents, however, decreased to 60% and 45% when the leachate content was 3% and 7%, respectively. For the wastewater spiked with the leachate, the sludge production was higher than for the municipal wastewater alone. Sludge settleability determined by SVI deteriorated with the increase of leachate content. The specific oxygen uptake rate, however, was measured higher as leachate content increased.

Two different quartz types of gasification reactor were used for pyrolysis and gasification of sawdust, ricestraw, ricehusk and municipal wastes which contain only cellulosics., operating at 1 atmospheric and vacuum pressure respectively. Also a stainless steel autoclave gasification reactor was used which is possible to use up to 100 atmospheric pressures and $800^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature to complete pyrolysis and gasification reaction. The catalysts used in this reaction w- ere $K_2CO_3$, $Na_2CO_3$, Ni and Ni-$K_2CO_3$ as CO-Catalyst. The product gas mixtures were identified to be CO, $CO_2$, $C_3H_3$, $CH_4$ and $CH_3CHO$ etc. by Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry. The pressurized gasification reaction shows significant increase in terms of methane composition and yield of product gases, comparing with those from unpressurized gasification reactions. The total volume of product gas mixtures amounts to 1600-1800ml per1gof waste of waste lignocellulosics or municipal waste, and the metane content of the gas mixtures reached to 40%, when $800^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature and 100 atmospheric pressures with Ni-$K_2CO_3$ as CO-catalyst in the pressurized gasification reaction were used. This results show that the product gas mixtures containing 40% of methane call be used for alternative enegy source.

In Taiwan there are 21 Municipal Solid Waste Incinerators (MSWI) built to treat 80% of the MSW nationwide. Approximately 2,000 tons of incineration ashes of municipal waste contain reaction ash and fly ash (3:1 by weight)will be produced daily, and this may cause a serious waste problem. According to EPA regulations, reaction ash and fly ash produced after incineration should be properly treated. Landfill capacity barely meets the general demands. More efficient actions should be planned and taken. The study found 'reclamation' should be the optimal solution to this problem. Only limited research and previous successful experiences are available among other countries. An incinerator in Northern Taiwan is chosen for this study to make environmental bricks from the reaction ash and fly ash. From the previous tests, the results of strength test were measured. From the previous test results, the fly ash products have not reached the desired strength; hence, reaction ash is chosen for further pilot study. In the experiment, incineration ashes, cement and gravel are mixed in the ratio of 1:1:1(by weight), to ground concretization aggregate and pelletization aggregate, the concrete products made from the aggregates were of the strength of 108 $kgf/cm^2$ and 142 $kgf/cm^2$ individually. For the purpose of making nonstructural walls which met the State Building Standards. In the study, 50 tons of concrete products was yielded from aggregate and environmental bricks. Further observation and supervision are recommended to ascertain the resource recycling and reclamation. EPA has planned to build three 'Recycling Plants' in northern, middle and southern Taiwan to develop efficient techniques to produce concrete products, sub-base course, soundproofing wall, gravel, artificial fishing reefs, tiles, drainage, bricks and etc. This experiment of the demonstrative plant solves the problem of the incineration ashes and opens another opportunity to reclaim them.

일반 및 특정폐기물 매립지에서 복토층의 중요성은 매립지의 바닥층 만큼 강조되지는 않는 것 같다. 그러나 실제로 매립지의 파괴 원인중에 가장 커다란 영향을 미치는 것은 복토층 설치의 실패에서 온다고 볼 수 있다. 특히 복토층 기능은 우수를 지표면으로 유출증진하여 매립장 안으로 침투 억제시키며, 폐기물의 노출시 자연환경 위생에 대하여 완충작용을 하며, 매립지의 침하 및 침강을 억제하는데 있다. 본 연구는 겨울철 동결/융해에 따른 폐기물 매립지 최종복토의 거동을 수행하였으며, 폐기물 매립지에서와 같은 조건을 부여하기 위해 거대한 Lysimeter를 설치하여 실제로 최종복토에 쓰여지는 물질로 세가지 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과는 동결/융해에 따른 점토층의 변화를 묘사하고 있으며 또한, 매립지에서의 동결깊이에 따른 복토층의 파괴는 점토의 물리 적, 공학적인 측면에 영향을 주며 이러한 영향은 매립지 설계시 고려되어야 한다고 본다. 본문은 실험에 사용되어진 복토층의 물질, 복토층의 묘사와 그들의 실험결과에 대한 결과분석 및 결론을 설명하고 있다.

본 연구는 강원도 T시를 중심으로 생활폐기물의 물리화학적 특성을 조사하여 생활폐기물의 적정관리 방안 및 처리방법에 활용할 수 있는 기초자료를 제공하고 하고자 실시되었다. 조사결과 T 시의 겉보기밀도는 평균 $231kg/m^3$이었으며, 가연성분과 비가연성분은 각각 94.0%와 6.0%이었다. 가연성분 중 음식물류폐기물(32.3%)과 종이류(41.2%)는 최근의 타 지역에 비하여 여전히 높은 비율을 차지하고 있어 철저한 분리배출이 필요하였다. 삼성분 중수분, 가연분, 회분의 함량은 각각 41.3%, 50.5%, 그리고 8.2%이었으며, 원소조성 중 탄소, 수소, 산소, 질소, 황, 염소의 함량은 각각 51.4%, 6.3%, 26.7%, 1.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%를 나타내었다. 습윤저위발열량은 2,704 kcal/kg으로 춘천시의 2,764 kcal/kg와 유사하였으나 과거 구로구, 고양시의 1,467~1,584 kcal/kg 보다는 1,000 kcal/kg 이상 높았다. 또한 조제된 소각재의 용출시험 실시결과 모두 지정폐기물 판정 기준치를 크게 하회하여 큰 문제가 없는 것으로 나타났다.

생활폐기물 소각재(바닥재+비산재)를 이용하여 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트를 제조하고자 하였다. 주원료로는 석회석, 폐주물사, shale, 전로슬래그 및 fly ash를 이용하였으며, modulus를 LSF 91.0, SM 2.40, IM 1.80의 수준으로 배합하였다. 바닥재의 경우는 배합물에 1, 2, 3wt.％까지 첨가하였으며, 바닥재와 비산재의 혼합시료는 각각의 함량을 0.9 및 0.1 wt.%로 하여 첨가하였다. 클링커 분석결과 소성성 지수(B.I)는 소각재가 많이 첨가 될수록 낮아지는 것으로 나타났으며, calcium silicate 광물의 발달이 저하되는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다 또한, 압축강도 측정결과, 소각재 사용량이 증가함에 따라 강도가 저하되는 것으로 확인되었다.
