Multi-criteria evaluation technique for SFI site identification of NORMS and oil industry waste disposal – Possibilities in Kuwait

Waste Disposal

“…The method could be used to clean and reclaim landfills, oil pits, and granular waste dumps (Uddin et al, 2009). This technique is environmentally secure and permanent, and does not leave any future liabilities that must be risk-evaluated or priced.…”

“…The necessary preconditions for the SFI technique are (Uddin et al, 2009): G Formations at shallow to moderate depths of 350-2000 m, far below any useable aquifers; G A structurally simple formation, with no tectonic structures that could impair the sealing properties; G The formation should be embedded by impermeable, thick layers; G The thickness of the confinement zone above the containment zone should be at least than 20-30 m; and G The containment formation should be porous and permeable.

“…In the final phase pure water is pumped again in order to clean up the regions, i.e., the injection system, and the well itself (Uddin et al, 2009). In the second phase, solid wastes are added in increasing amounts to the water.…”

Анализ Методов Утилизации Нефтяных Шламов

“…Еще одним их развивающихся методов является метод закачки нефтяных отходов в пласт [6]. Он предусматривает закачку в глубокие и гидравлически безопасные пласты без загрязнения пластов, содержащих воду.…”

Performance Assessment Model for Municipal Solid Waste Management Systems: Development and Implementation

“…Recently, Coelho et al [14] carried out a detailed review of different applications of multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) in waste management. According to this review, most of the studies addressed landfill location selection problem [15,16], assessment of social and environmental impacts of different waste treatment technologies [14], and selection of types of waste treatment facilities [17]. Environments 2019, 6, 19 3 of 26Mendes et al [18] applied PIs to evaluate the performance, using a simple weighted sum approach of waste management systems in regions with extensive seasonal tourism activities in Portugal.…”
