Europe has somewhere between 150,000 and 500,000 landfill sites, with an estimated 90% of them being "non-sanitary" landfills, predating the EU Landfill Directive of 1999. NEW-MINE trains 15 early-stage researchers (ESRs) in all aspects of landfill mining, in terms of both technological innovation and multi-criteria assessments.
DetailsLandfill Mining Several different approaches and different technologies for processing excavated waste are available. However, the economic feasibility of full scale applications is still the bottleneck for the valorization of landfilled waste as materials and/or energy and most reported case studies refer to the simple excavation and further ...

DetailsNov 01, 2015· Landfill mining projects not only require sampling and analysis to assess the economic feasibility of mining but also to address site health and safety issues as the release and exposure to gas and leachate are concerns (Fisher, 2012).Generally there is insufficient detailed information on the contents of landfills, which includes the amount, …
DetailsMay 28, 2021· The concept of mining landfills is not new. Some 60 examples have been cited in solid waste literature since the first reported project in Israel in the 1950s. The EU has been conducting research on the feasibility of landfill mining via ETN NEW-MINE (for municipal solid waste) and METGROW+ (for industrial waste). The following video …
DetailsMay 02, 2014· Landfill mining (LFM) is a new term for a commonly used approach of excavating landfilled waste in order to utilise the contained resources. ... (Hölzle, 2010). In German landfills, excavated wastes from municipal waste landfills generally consist of 60–70% fine material (<40 mm) with the remainder consisting of one half each of a light ...
DetailsLandfill mining. Landfill mining and reclamation (LFMR) is a process which excavates and processes solid wastes which have previously been landfilled. [1] The process aims to reduce the amount of landfill mass encapsulated within the closed landfill and/or temporarily remove hazardous material to allow protective measures to be taken before …
DetailsLandfill mining is economically undertaken in a number of countries around the world. Very significant quantities of metals, plastics, other recylates and alternative fuels are available on a national level ( Franke & Mocher 2010). Global Landfill Mining Conferences bring together all the interested parties in one place to help to make it happen.

DetailsEnhanced Landfill Mining (ELFM) offers the opportunity to select the most suitable moment to recycle certain waste streams, depending for instance on the state of the technology. Recently, a transdisciplinary consortium was established. The first, embryonic elements of this new vision are presented in this paper.
DetailsApr 01, 2009· Landfill Mining. by Waste & Recycling April 1, 2009. Steps taken by the City of Barrie, Ontario to protect water resources from landfill leachate have the side-benefit of providing the city with time to further improve waste diversion and control long-term waste management costs. This will be achieved in part by redesigning the landfill and ...
