1. Towards sustainable solid waste management in Jordan
University dissertation from Water Resources Engineering, Lund UniversityAbstract : Jordan is a country with a growing population that is undergoing rapid modernization. The increased volume of solid waste and associated logistical difficulties, the steady growth in the cost of waste management and the risk to human health are sources of concern. READ MORE

2. Generation of Leachate and the Flow Regime in Landfills
University dissertation from Department of Water Resources Engineering, Lund Institute of Technology, Lund UniversityAbstract : The environmental impacts of landfills are associated mainly with the emission of leachate and biogas. Sanitary landfilling aims to stabilize the landfill in a efficient and controlled way, so that the environmental impacts are minimized. When a sanitary landfill has attained its final storage quality, it can be integrated into the environment. READ MORE

3. Heat and water flows in freezing and thawing soils numerical modelling, laboratory and field observations
University dissertation from Luleå : Luleå tekniska universitetAbstract : A laboratory study of infiltration rates into frozen and unfrozen fine sand, including temperature effects of both soil and infiltration water, is reported. The average infiltration rate varied from about 10.6 mm/min for unfrozen conditions, to about 1-2 mm/min for frozen conditions. READ MORE

4. Thermal response tests influence of convective flow in groundwater filled borehole heat exchanger
University dissertation from Luleå : Luleå tekniska universitetAbstract : The main objective of this doctorial thesis was to investigate how thermally induced movements in the groundwater (natural convective flow) may influence the heat transport in borehole and surrounding bedrock in a groundwater filled borehole heat exchanger system. The purpose was also to determine if thermal response tests could be used to detect the convective influence and the effect on evaluated heat transfer parameters, effective bedrock thermal conductivity and borehole thermal resistance.

5. On leachate emissions from municipal solid waste
University dissertation from Water Resources Engineering, Lund UniversityAbstract : When attention is drawn to the recovery of resources within waste, the amount and types of waste disposed of at landfills change. A waste management system based on separate kerbside collection, sorting, recycling, and pretreatment with material and/or energy recovery produces new residues, which finally end up at landfills.
