Innovative planning and online net monitoring system for the landfill of waste

Objective

The high living standard and the degree of industrialization in Europe have led to strong environmental problems especially in the area of waste disposal. The treatment occurs very often without any clear concepts. Integrated landfill management is important to avoid the environmental pollution, particularly with respect to sources of drinking water. The main objectives of the NETWASTE project are the development and demonstration of innovative planning concepts for landfill sites together with a novel GIS based in-situ online net monitoring system including a new ground and leach ate water devolution technology. NETWASTE will help to eliminate above mentioned deficiencies. The degree of innovation consists in developing and demonstration of multivalent digital planning tools with high transparency, high reliability and excellent clarity. The novel Diseased monitoring and control system will enable automatic online measurements and identification of polluting sources in the net of the landfill monitoring points. The measuring results will allow quick conclusions regarding efficient sealing and preventive measures. The low cost devolution of contaminated water will enable to pre-treat the water into acceptable quality for further treatment.
