Regenerative Energie
Since June 2005 in Germany all wastes with high content of organic carbon have to be pretreated, as only wastes with residual or low content of organic carbon are allowed to be deposited in landfills of non-hazardous waste. Due to this restriction a new type of landfill behaviour will be generated, with mainly mineral input, without landfill gas emissions and no discharge of DOC with the leachate. The investigations of landfills with mineral wastes show that the majority of their leachates contain a very low concentration on ecotoxicological substances and thus accomplish the guideline for effluent treatment by municipal sewage treatment plant. Furthermore they revealed that an unfavourable disposal of charged wastes within the landfill may dramatically increase the pollutant mobilization by the leachate.
As a consequence, wastes with low pollution charge or high adsorption capacity, e.g. substances with oxide or hydroxide surfaces, should be deposited on the bottom of the landfill, and highly charged or leachable wastes on the top. Thus with a conservationand cost-conscious management of mineral waste disposal in landfills the emission of hazardous substances with the leachate may positively influenced and incrustations within the leachate pipelines avoided.
The behaviour of landfills is strongly characterised by the type of waste materials and by the local climatic conditions. For the interaction of a landfill with the environment the construction of the landfill lining plays an important role in the short and middle term. In general, with the increase of the mineral or inert character of the stored wastes the landfill behaviour becomes less hazardous.

Rechtliche und praktische Unsicherheiten bei der Durchführung des europäischen Klimaanpassungsrechts durch das Bundes- Klimaanpassungsgesetz (KAnG)

In the context of the European Climate Law (EU) 2021/1119), the Governance Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 and the Nature Restoration Regulation (EU) 2024/1991, the KAnG came into force on July 1, 2024.
Transformatives Klimarecht: Raum, Zeit, Gesellschaft

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
