Method to forecast water quality of waste water produced in landfill disposal sites.

Sanitary Landfill Method of Solid Waste Disposal

IN T R O D U C T IO N Reduced to its simplest terms, solid waste collection and disposal consists of the acceptance of the solid waste from processes of human life, the transportation of such material to disposal sites, and the process­ ing and disposal of the material so that nuisances are not created. The entire process must be carried out in such a manner that the public health of the commun...

Use of the landfill water pollution index (LWPI) for groundwater quality assessment near the landfill sites

The purpose of the paper is to assess the groundwater quality near the landfill sites using landfill water pollution index (LWPI). In order to investigate the scale of groundwater contamination, three landfills (E, H and S) in different stages of their operation were taken into analysis. Samples of groundwater in the vicinity of studied landfills were collected four times each year in the perio...

Interval Forecast of Water Quality Parameters

Abstract. The current quality control methodology adopted by the water distribution service provider in the metropolitan region of Porto Portugal, is based on simple heuristics and empirical knowledge. Based on the domain complexity and data volume, this application is a perfect candidate to apply data mining process. In this paper, we propose a new methodology to predict the range of normality...

Water Supply and Waste Disposal Systems for Arctic Communities

The special problems of providing adequate water supply and waste disposal systems for arctic settlements are examined at the community of Frobisher Bay, Northwest Territories. The two existing methods, a trucked and a piped system, are compared for adequacy, reliability and cost. A series of alternative improvements to upgrade community services is proposed. It was concluded that any of the su...
