“…The effects on human health and ecosystems associated with heavy metal pollution (Vaverková et al, 2018) become even more worrying given their tendency to accumulate and magnify along trophic levels (Anning and Akoto, 2018). For example, due to their bioaccumulation they can have toxic effects on living organisms when they exceed a certain concentration (Nriagu et al, 1991;Gusiatin et al, 2013;Mahmoud et al, 2014;Sas et al, 2015), representing a risk to human health when transferred thought the food chain (Kelly et al, 1996;Mazur et al, 2013;Radziemska et al, 2013;Mahmoud et al, 2014;Roy and McDonald, 2015).…”

The rational and scientific selection of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) landfill sites is becoming increasingly important, due to the continuous growth of MSW worldwide. Multi-source information is employed to ensure the accuracy of the evaluation criteria, including hydrogeological, morphological, environmental, climatic and socio-economic data. In the fuzzy logic environment, a Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) and GIS spatial technique have been utilized to locate potential landfill sites. Landfill Site Selection Results (LSSR) were divided into three categories: suitable, less suitable, and unsuitable. Suitable areas were further divided into high, moderate, and low levels. We used the field investigations of 28 standardized landfill sites in the Hexi Corridor of China that comply with the China National Standard (CNS) to verify the LSSR. These sites are then ranked utilizing group fuzzy MULTIMOORA. These methods were more feasible and accurate in assessing the suitability of MSW landfills. The highlights of our methods were as follows: (1) The uncertainty of AHP expert scoring reduced by employing the fuzzy membership function, and the decision efficiency of spatial analysis improved as well. (2) Verification results showed that the main LSSR met the CNS perfectly and located suitable areas, with an accuracy of 93% (26 out of 28 sites). (3) In the highly suitable areas, 11 candidate areas were selected for the MSW landfill site construction in the Hexi Corridor. Furthermore, technical countermeasures for the standardized management of MSW landfills were proposed for the Hexi Corridor, which is critical for ecological/environmental protection.

“…Landfills are well-engineered facilities, designed and constructed to impound municipal, hazardous, industrial, construction and demolition waste materials as well as coal combustion residuals, among other things [42,84,85]. Modern landfills have liner systems incorporated to prevent the pollution of groundwater and the surrounding environment by the contaminants generated by the waste deposited on them [5,39].…”

A critical reappraisal of residual soils as compacted soil liners

2019

Compacted residual soils are often used as liner materials in engineered landfills, tailings dams, solar ponds, and canals, etc. to minimize the migration of contaminants into the surrounding environment and groundwater. To date, there has not been an extensive and adequate review of the suitability of different residual soil types for use as compacted liner materials. This paper reviews the suitability, merits, demerits, and possible applications of using expansive and lateritic residual soils as compacted soil liners. The review is then complemented by a study of the geotechnical properties of lateritic residual and shrinkable soils from Peninsular Malaysia. Suitability was assessed based on engineering property data for both soil types, collected from various journal papers, workshops, proceedings of conferences, and symposia from around the world. These properties were then compared with the standard requirements for use as liner materials. Descriptive statistics were employed to better assess the individual criteria of using both residual soil types as compacted soil liners. The results indicate that expansive and lateritic soils can be effectively utilized as liner materials if more acceptable materials are not readily available. The study addresses untreated soils but does not discuss the stabilization aspects.
