Change in Concentrations of Groundwater Pollutants in a Recultivated Non-Hazardous Landfill with a Temporary Top Cover Layer
Abstract:
The former regional municipal solid waste landfill owned by the Local Government of Dunaújváros; Hungary located next to village Kisapostag. The first part of the recultivation of this territory was begun in 2010 and was finished in 2012. In this case study, ten-year changes in concentrations of some groundwater pollutants such as ammonia, nitrate, nitrite and some heavy metals such as arsenic and nickel are presented. The recultivated municipal solid waste landfill is covered with a temporary top closing layer, on the top are plants, mainly grass according to 20/2006. (IV. 5.) KvVM decree on landfill and certain rules and conditions related to landfill [4]. The environmental protection authority obliged the municipality to build the final waterproofing top layer at the landfill by June 30, 2025. In our opinion, this is completely unnecessary, as the temporary barrier layer fully fulfils its function. The landfill is far from populated areas and has not caused any environmental pollution or damage. The construction of the final upper waterproofing layer would cause extremely high costs for the local government.
