Many industrialized countries are confronted with a difficulty about reuse of closed waste landfill. facilities. Especially, the demand of closed waste landfill maintenance and reuse nearby urban area has been increased, because of the shortage of usable land and extend of urban area. For the safe reuse of closed waste landfill, the most important check point is the effect of waste landfill on environment abound them. However, the non-sanitary closed waste landfill generally have no leachate lining system, therefore, the in-situ lining system such as sheet-pile, and vertical slurry wall etc. was needed to prevent the leachate outgoing from the waste landfill. In this paper present the case history of performance evaluation of vertical slurry wall by tracer tests.

The effect of ozone oxidation on bio-degradability of leachate was studied. Ozone oxidation process was used as pre-treatment process to enhance performance of biological process in treating landfill leachate. Optimum ozone injection rate and contact time in this experiment was $160{\;}mg{\;}O_/{\ell}{\cdot}hr$ and 45 minutes, respectively. Bio-degradability was enhanced 5.08% by ozone oxidation. The ratio of ozone demand/DOC concentration was $0.049~0.091{\;}mg{\;}O_3/mg{\;}DOC$. The increase of bio-degradability depending on ozone injection rate(D) and contact time(T) can be expressed as follows ; The rate of bio-degradation of DOC was increased proportionally with the increase of ozone injection rate and contact time irrespective of landfill site age. The increase of bio-degradability by ozone addition was not satisfactory. It is hard to expect significant increase in bio-degradability by ozone treatment only. Thus, it is evaluated that ozone oxidation can not increase biodegradability significantly in concentrated wastewater composed of complex organic compound such as leachate.

A questionary survey was conducted to investigate citizen's attitude to treatment facilities of municipal solid waste in Miryang during 8. June of 1998 and 22 June of 1988. Collection effiencies was 86.7%, as 260 individuals of the 300 individuals. The survey showed that 43.0% of answers recognized seriousness of problem of the waste treatment and 33.1% of respondents concerned about recycle of organic waste. 40.8% of total answers said that they most hated landfill site among waste treatment facilities, and most citizens wanted as much distant as possible from waste treatment facilities. It was investigated that the greater part of respondents wanted the greatest compensation. About 58% of respondents was opposed to complete waste treatment facilities. 36.2$ among answers wanted establishment of waste treatment facilities in an industrial complex or an industrial area. The majority of respondents was willing to increase recycle rate and recognized seriousness of landfill site security. The majority of citizens do not trust environmental administration of Miryang City and they think that democracy and open of administration need for overcome MINBY.

This study was to understand leaching characteristics with pH controlling agents and Temp. control, and investigate leaching characteristics with pH control from opening a leaching test to an end for reassessing leaching test of heavy metals with environmental conditions in landfill. Because leaching of heavy metals was increased in low pH, pH must control for leaching in existing leaching test. Generally, regulation time(6hr) of leaching was confirmed reasonablely, except for Cu in plating sludge. In pH controlling solution, there was nearly not difference between Acetic acid and HCl and if considering Cu, the former was appropriate. In a part of heavy metal, leaching rate was increased in high Temp., and normal Temp. in existing leaching test would be revaluated.

In this paper, the effect of ground improvement and the countermeasure for the increase of strength in soft ground (wasted fill, marine clay) was studied through utilization of Soilcrete Cement as a material of ground improvement. Soil samples were obtained from $\bigcirc$$\bigcirc$$\bigcirc$ sanitary landfill to assess the applicability of the clay liner using Soilcrete Cement. Several laboratory tests were performed with the samples and skin corrosion tests of steel pipe covered with Soilcrete Cement were performed. As a result, Soilcrete Cement is considered to be applicable to the construction site and to be effective for the prevention of the corrosion of the steel pipe.

Municipal solid waste landfills are unpredictable bioreactors which in cases of mishandling and bad supervision presents numerous risks. The key to municipal waste landfills is to approach them from the point of prevention of the possible consequences, which means using methods of organized waste disposal, and also utilizing landfill gas, as an unavoidable consequence with disposal of municipal solid waste with a high share of biodegradable organic matter. This paper presents an overview about problems of solid municipal waste management, type and composition of waste, and an overview of waste management condition. Further, the problem of landfill and landfill gasses is described with the calculation models of landfill production, as well as the use of the SWM GHG Calculator and LandGEM software on a specific example of gas production for the central zone at Sarajevo landfill "Smiljevici". Main focus of this thesis is the analysis of potentials of greenhouse gas emission reduction measures from the waste management. Overview of the best available techniques in waste management is presented as well as the methodology used for calculations. Scenarios of greenhouse gas emission reduction in waste management were defined so that emissions were calculated using the appropriate model. In the final section of the paper, its description of the problem of collection and utilization the landfill gas at the sanitary landfill "Smiljevici", and implementation of the system for landfill gas collection and solution suggestion for the gasification and exploitation of gas. Energy, environmental and economic benefits can be accomplished by utilizing municipal solid waste as fuel in industry and energy and moreover by utilizing energy generation from landfill gas, which this thesis emphasizes.

This study was focused on the evaluation of Nanjido landfill site by leachate analysis. Several parameters, for example pH, BOD, $COD_{Mn},\;COD_{Cr}$, SS, TP, $NH_3-N$, Color, were selected as major leachate quality parameters. $BOD/COD_{Cr}$. was used to estimate the biodegradable portion in organic matter. Samples were collected at the leachate storage wells and leachate treatment facility inflow in each quarter of 2003. The results were as follows : 1. Inflow quality of treatment plant in 2003 was analysed as $pH\;7.3\~8.0,\;BOD\;12.4\~30.0mg/L,\;COD_{Mn}\;101.2\~130.3mg/L,\;COD_{Cr}\;122.5\~238.0mg/L,\;SS\;16.1\~115.3mg/L$, $T-P\;0.27\~0.80mg/L,\;NH_3-N\;208.0\~~354.0mg/L$, Color $110.3\~129.0$ unit. 2. $BOD/COD_{Cr}$ of inflow ranged between $0.07\~0.16$ indicating that the landfill had the properties of old-fill and organic portion in leachate was mostly persistent organic matter. 3. Though concentrations of BOD, COD, $NH_3-N$, Color in leachate storage wells were mostly higher in first landfill than in second landfill, $BOD/COD_{Cr}$ ranging from 0.03 to 0.20, showed reversely. 4. Correlation coefficient$(R^2)$ between color and other parameters related to organic matter showed mostly above 0.7 and especially highest value with $COD_{Mn}$ of 0.7985.

In this paper, various aspects of landfill liners such as guide of liner installation, type of bottom liners and vertical barriers, domestic companies producing and dealing liners, quality assurance and control of liners, are investigated. Although sanitary landfilling of domestic municipal wates has begun at the last decade, we still need to strengthen the regulation for designing and constructing the liner systems and to diversify the types of liners used in the landfills. Technologies of quality control for selecting and installing landfill liners should be improved as soon as possible. In order to develop the technologies and to slove th problems related to landfill liners, more efforts should be taken among the engineers and the agencies who are interested in maintraining safe subsurface environments.

금속이 함유된 폐기물의 처리는 점차 금속표면처리산업(Metal Finishing Industry)에서 큰 관심이 되어가고 있다. 위생침적지(Sanitary Landfills), 혹은 소각로에서 다른 도시 쓰레기들과 같이 처리되는 것은 환경상 불안전하며 이러한 행위는 중단되어야 한다. 다른 방법으로는 특수한 위생침적지의 운영, 안전한 침적지, 금속폐기물의 고정(Fixation), 혹은 포장(Capsule)에 넣어 버리는 방법등이 있으나 이러한 것들은 비실용적이며 예상되는 금속 폐기물의 양에 대하여 비용이 많이 들 것이다. 간단하고 경제적이며 보다 효과적인 분리침적지(Segregated Landfill)가 대신에 제안되고 있다.
