Effects of Bonded Tyres on Leachate Recirculation of Bioreactor Landfills

چکیده
Results and Conclusion: In this study, a numerical two-permeability flow model was used to investigate the effects of tyres embedding on the outflow rate of leachate injection. Furthermore, it was coupled with momentum balance equations to determine the local factor of safety of slope stability. The established model was applied to a simplified bioreactor landfill. The simulation results demonstrated that the tyre net can accelerate the rate of leachate injection and contribute to distribute the liquid more uniformly. Meanwhile, the slope stability was improved due to the enforcement of waste in the presence of tyres.

Practice review of five bioreactor/recirculation landfills.
Five landfills were analyzed to provide a perspective of current practice and technical issues that differentiate bioreactor and recirculation landfills in North America from conventional landfills. The bioreactor and recirculation landfills were found to function in much the same manner as conventional landfills, with designs similar to established standards for waste containment facilities. L...
متن کاملModeling of leachate recirculation using vertical wells in bioreactor landfills.
Leachate recirculation (LR) in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills operated as bioreactors offers significant economic and environmental benefits. The subsurface application method of vertical wells is one of the most common LR techniques. The objective of this study was to develop a novel two-dimensional model of leachate recirculation using vertical wells. This novel method can describe lea...
متن کاملManagement Model of Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Bioreactor
Major environmental concerns of municipal landfills revolve around quantity and quality of leachate, gas generation, and decomposition processes occurring therein. Minimizing the time period for maximum biodegradation to reduce leachate and gas emissions after landfill closure, ease the requirement of leachate treatment, and reclamation of landfill site is the most sought after managers proposi...
متن کاملImprovement of Waste Decomposition in Leachate Recirculation Simulated Landfill by High Water Addition
A considerable amount of research has been conducted to demonstrate the development of bioreactor landfills promoted by leachate recirculation [1-10]. The effectiveness of leachate recirculation has been well documented in lysimeter studies [1, 5, 11, 12], test cell studies [2, 13, 14-16] and full-scale studies [17-20]. However, the results from these investigations might not be applied appropr...
متن کاملLinguistic modeling of biogas generation in simulated anaerobic bioreactor landfills
A fuzzy linguistic model was developed to simulate the effect of leachate recirculation and sludge addition on the biogas generation in anaerobic bioreactor landfills. The model was designed using a fuzzy logic system which incorporated 3 input variables (time, leachate recirculation, and sludge addition) and a single manipulated output (biogas generation rate). The experimental work involved t...
