Landfill modelling challenge: HBM modelling predictions (2008)
Journal Article
McDougall, J. (2008). Landfill modelling challenge: HBM modelling predictions. Proceedings of the ICE - Waste and Resource Management, 161, 147-153. https://doi.org/10.1680/warm.2008.161.4.147

Two laboratory-scale consolidating anaerobic reactors were commissioned, constructed and monitored by Southampton University's waste research group to investigate the long-term behaviour of decomposing waste. The reactor tests were run for 919 days w... Read More about Landfill modelling challenge: HBM modelling predictions.

Long term landfill settlement is commonly attributed to two phenomena: creep and biodegradation. Biodegradation, which may contribute the greater proportion of longā€term settlement, is a function of a range of factors, many of which are not easily as...
