Principles of Landfill Odour Emission and Control [Mar 2007]
Understanding, prioritising and controlling emissions
Throughout most countries in Europe by far the greatest proportion of waste is disposed of to landfill. In the UK this represents approximately 83% of all waste disposed1. Odours from landfill represent the single highest cause of complaint from waste management processes in the UK. These concerns also represent one of the most commonly cited reasons for refusal of extensions and applications for landfill operations. So is this a problem that we should be concerned with or an issue that will fade away as our dependency on landfill reduces and new technologies contribute to managing waste?
Dealing With Contaminated Land [Mar 2005]
The Environment agency estimates that there are some 300,000 hectares of land in the UK affected to by contamination left by industrial activity alone.
Contaminated land is a general term used to describe land containing substances that, when present in sufficient concentrations, are likely to cause harm to man, the environment, or materials used in construction. This contamination can manifest in soil, in air, as a waterborne hazard or as a combination of these.
