The European Council Directive on Landfill of Wastes 1999/31/EC provides, within 2016, the reduction of landfilled biowaste to 35% of the amount produced in 1995. In Italy this Directive was received on the whole by D.Lgs 36/2003. As a result, mechanical and biological treatments (MBTs) of unseparated municipal solid waste (MSW) are a necessary option to reduce organic fraction content and impacts related to wastes disposal.
The paper discusses landfilling impacts of SOF (Stabilized Organic Fraction) produced by mechanical-biological treatment (MBT) plants, with regard to the case study of Campania Region, Southern Italy. Due to particular working conditions, produced SOF showed limited stability, high quantities of plastics and glasses as well as significant concentrations of lead, copper and chromium. As a result, it was unusable for environmental purposes and disposed in landfills. Leachate produced from SOF was investigated in a real scale landfill and in a small pilot plant, in order to better evaluate landfilling impacts of poorly stabilized organic waste. High organic strength and inorganics compounds content confirmed poor stabilization and ineffective selection of material in the MBTs plants.

Werden kommunale Bioabfälle nur deponiert, sind sie klimaschädlich. Dabei könnten sie zu einer europaweit bedeutsamen Energieressource reifen: Aus dem Bioabfall lässt sich durch Trockenfermentation Biogas herstellen! Welche Verfahren aber sind an welchem Standort richtig - automatisierte, kontinuierliche oder diskontinuierliche Batch-Verfahren?
Potential for energy generation in Greece by combustion of asreceived or pre-processed (RDF/SRF) municipal solid wastes

The European Union Landfill Directive (1999/31 EC) requires reducing the amount of wastes landfilled by means of recycling, composting and energy recovery. Accordingly, the member states are gradually adopting Waste-to-Energy (WTE) and also mechanical-biological treatment (MBT) methods for the recovery of energy and materials from municipal solid wastes (MSW).
PREDICTION OF RESIDENTIAL BMW GENERATION ACCORDING TO SOCIOECONOMIC AND HOUSEHOLD CHARACTERISTICS FOR THE DUBLIN REGION.

Waste management is widely recognised as one of the most problematic areas of Irish environmental management. The rate of waste generation continues to increase proportionally with economic growth. Economic growth during the last decade has stimulated greater consumption throughout Irish society. Ireland is under increased pressure from the European Union to develop its waste management practise to come in line with other European countries.
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.
