Integrated geophysical assessment of a municipal waste disposal site for its geological suitability in terms of the underlain material
Dumpsites are major sources of groundwater pollution as a result of leachates that drain out of the decomposed waste. If there are no underlain materials that could serve as a seal to stop the percolation of leachate, it finds its way to the groundwater. A properly designed landfill is expected to h...
