"BIOREACTOR LANDFILL CONCEPT IN INTEGRATED SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT?"
Donnerstag, den 11. Oktober 2012, um 14:30 Uhr
Hörsaal N 2.24
Growing consumption and advancing technological development depending on the population growth is accompanied by environmental pollution, which is one of the most important global problems. Solid waste problem is the biggest part in this picture. Integated solid waste management is the most important approach implemented to solve solid waste problem from the craddle to the grave. Integrated solid waste management system consists of selection and implementation of the required appropriate method, technology and management programmes, and at the same time meeting of the related legal demands, for a defined waste management aim and objective.
Landfilling is an indispensable part of each integrated waste management system, and the applied construction and operation technology in a modern and proper landfill is the guarantee for protection of the society and environment. Accelerating the waste stabilization in order to operate the landfills in an effective and unproblematic manner is an important topic in the field of solid waste management. Several techniques such as leachate recirculation, buffer solution, nutrient and sludge addition have been developed for reducing the required time for the waste stabilizastion process, leachate treatment and the increase in biogas production. Bioreactor landfill sites play an important role in an integrated solid waste management system, particularly for solid waste compositions with a high organic matter content. Bioreactor landfill sites are commonly and effectively used in countries such as Japan and USA.
During negotiations with the EU, landfill sites have the biggest share among investments required for integrated solid waste management systems in Turkey. Since the applicability of collection of source separated waste collection seems difficult before and after 2020, use of bioreactor systems and integration of these systems into waste management systems, during this transition phase and afterwards, seems possible in regions with medium-scale populations, where climate and solid waste composition are suitable.
