Relevant Emissions During Landfill Mining Processes

Because of landfill mining activities emissions will occur. They can cause considerable effects to the environment and the vicinity. The most important emission may be the odour, but also dust and noise can be relevant to the neighborhood.

It is obvious that the intensity of the emissons depends from the kind of mining technique and the treatment of the waste and also from the amount of waste which is excavated. Also the pretreatment and the disposing of the fine fraction plays an important role. Not to forget are the toxic constituents which may be in the landfill, like asbestos. Investigations at landfills during mining projects however showed that threshold values are not exceeded. Additional measures can even further reduce the emissions. In the following two figures odour emissions and dust settlements are describing the situationthat during a mining project the measured values at or in the vicinity of the landfill are far below the threshold limits and in the same range like values from other places in the surrounding of the landfill.
