Title

Hazardous waste underground repository sustainable management by available mining works recapitalization in respect of environment european acquis

Acronym Wasundreman

Duration / month36

 

Abstract

A real challenge of our society is waste management and storage in respect of environment protection, especially for hazardous ones. To develop a management of solid waste repository into underground mining excavations could be a realistic solution for landfill alternative and incineration procedure. The main objective of the project aims to work up safety storage solutions, especially for the hazardous wastes, which are characterized by low content of heavy metals.

Three important tasks will be solved:

-underground storage bat technology of solid waste, according to hydro-geological and geomining conditions

-technology to convert the hazardous waste into inert one

-long term monitoring and control system of the underground repository, in order to eliminate the incidentally environment pollution
