Waste-soil interfaces

Abstract

The results of a systematic and experimental study of waste-soil interfaces are presented. Previous studies of interface processes are discussed in the literature review in chapter two. In the relatively few studies that have been explicitly included an interface between two reactive media a number of unexpected interactions have been noted. A significant weakness in the available literature is the lack of a comprehensive overview treating waste-soil interfaces as an integrated subject. Given the infinite number of different waste-soil interfaces, it was clear that the first step in providing a comprehensive overview was to define a systematic approach. In chapter three the methodology, which was adopted for this study, is discussed. A system for classifying interfaces, a combined modelling and experimental approach, and a method for assessing the practical significance of interfaces processes are presented. In chapter four the results and the discussion of the combined modelling and laboratory studies are presented. The chapter is divide into five sections, each of which addresses a different class of interfaces. The sections are self-contained, each containing a short introduction, model development, experimental procedures and results, a discussion, and a short summary. The conclusions of the study as a whole are compiled and  More>>

The conclusions of the study as a whole are compiled and reviewed in chapter five. Emphasis is placed on the implications for waste testing and regulation, for macroscopic modelling of waste disposal and reuse, and for improvement of disposal and reuse technologies. The section also includes the authors` suggestions for further studies. 15 figs., 4 tabs., 43 refs.}
