Mass balance of three municipal solid waste landfilling schemes

The results presented in this paper are issued from ELIA (Environmental Landfill Impact Assessment) research program investigations conducted by the CRPE (Veolia Environmental Services Research Centre) and supported by ADEME (the French Agency for Environment and Energy Management). Three waste landfilling schemes have been evaluated through the construction and follow-up of semi-industrial devices. Mechanical and Biological Treatment (MBT) before landfilling has been compared to the conventional landfill and the concept of bioreactor. 34 months of monitoring led to the establishment of different mass balances (carbon, nitrogen) as well as the estimation of the dry mass losses occurring during the treatment and their repartition between the liquid and gaseous phases

The EU Landfill Directive of April 1999 (99/31/EC) defines the requirements on landfill design and operation and a mandatory stepwise reduction of the biodegradable fraction of Residual Municipal Solid Waste (RMSW) discharged to landfill; the amount of the biodegradable organic matter deposited must be reduced by 25, 50 and 65 % by 2006, 2009 and 2016 respectively on the basis of the quantities generated in 1995. These targets are to be reached on a national basis.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens - ein Rechtsvergleich
© Lexxion Verlagsgesellschaft mbH (8/2024)
Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
