Stabilisation/solidification is a technology aimed at changing the physical/chemical properties of (hazardous) waste materials in order to reduce the release of contaminants in the environment. The technology aims at changing the release process from a percolation dominated to a diffusion or surface-dissolution dominated regime. For this form of treatment of hazardous waste for disposal in non-hazardous waste sites, the regulatory framework is still in development. In setting criteria for landfill classes in Annex II of the EU Landfill Directive (1999) it proved to be impossible to derive such values for stabilised monolithic waste due to lack of information on release and release controlling factors in stabilised waste monofills.
The stabilisation of waste for disposal is one of the major routes for treatment of hazardous waste materials. However, the regulatory framework for treatment of hazardous waste disposal in non-hazardous waste sites is still in development. For the time being, regulatory controls are referred to the Member States. Several Member States are currently working on the development of criteria. One of the major problems is the general lack of understanding of the chemical/physical processes in a stabilised waste landfill under field conditions.

ASSESSMENT OF HYDROLOGICAL PARAMETERS IN PRE-TREATED WASTE BY TIME DOMAIN REFLECTOMETRY

The water in contact with waste materials is one of the most important determinants for longterm emissions from landfilled wastes (Kjeldsen et al., 2002). It plays a major role for the chemical and biological reactions in landfilled wastes (Mora-Naranjo et al., 2004, He et al., 2006), and in biological reactions in pre-treatment processes (Christensen, 2001). In humid and semi-arid areas, the water content determines the efficacy of final caps (Börjesson et al., 1998; Yanful et al., 2003). The water level inside a landfill has been suggested to influence heavy metal emissions via the leachate (Karlsson et al., 2005). The EU directive 1999/31/EC gives requirements for the reduction and control of leachate production.
STUDY OF EMISSIONS INTO THE AIR AND WATERS OF “EPER” POLLUTANTS BY THE FRENCH LANDFILLS

Industrial production processes account for a important share of the overall pollution in Europe (for pollutants such as greenhouse gases, acidifying substances, wastewater emissions and waste). The European Union (EU) has established common rules for permitting and controlling industrial facilities in the IPPC Directive 96/61/EC of 24 September 1996 (OJ L 257
10.10.1996). The IPPC Directive is about minimising pollution from various industrial sources throughout the EU. Operators of industrial facilities are required to obtain an authorization (environmental permit) from the authorities in the EU countries. Besides, this directive ensures
that the public has a right to be informed on environmental effect of industrial facilities, by having access to an inventory of principal emissions and sources responsible.
LEACHING PROPERTIES OF VARIOUS LEACHING PROPERTIES OF VARIOUS CONDITIONS: TESTING IN LYSIMETER AND LAB SCALE

The waste acceptance criteria at landfills (WAC) specified in the EU Council Decision 2003/33/EC of 19 December establishing criteria and procedures for acceptance of granular waste at landfills pursuant to Article 16 and Annex II of Directive 1999/31/EC on the landfill of waste are currently being implemented in many countries, including Denmark. The EU WAC specify limit values for leaching tests performed on wastes to landfilled, and the Council Decision requires wastes and waste streams to be characterised to determine at which categories of landfills they can be accepted. At the same time it may be determined whether a waste fulfils (national and/or) criteria for utilisation.
Application and environmental risk of MSWI bottom ash in the Netherlands
© IWWG International Waste Working Group (11/2006)
The Dutch Ministry of Environment in 2005 commissioned an investigation into almost 20 years of application of bottom ash in various projects. Over the period 1986 to 2004 92 percent of the material applied could be retrieved. Embankments for motorways and railroads made up for 53% of the applied material. Foundations for industrial activities accounted for 27%. On landfills 18% was applied as construction material. Only 1% was used as road base. It was concluded that the highest environmental risk occurred in embankments. The environmental risk reduced in road base and foundations. The lowest environmental risk occurred in application on landfills.
