The Household Use of Food Waste Disposal Units as a Waste Management Option: A Review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review existing literature on the potential impacts of FWD use and investigate whether there are sufficient data to ascertain the impact of using FWDs as a waste management option.

Formation of diclofenac and sulfamethoxazole reversible transformation products in aquifer material under denitrifying conditions: Batch experiments

TL;DR: It is conjecture that this temporal and reversible effect of denitrifying conditions on the studied aromatic amines could have significant environmental implications, and could explain at least partially the wide range of removals in subsurface environments reported in literature for DCF and SMX, as well as some apparent discrepancies on SMX behavior.

Performance of North American Bioreactor Landfills. II: Chemical and Biological Characteristics

TL;DR: This paper examined the performance of five North American bioreactor landfills and found that gas collection increases at bioreactors when the water content reaches 40% of the leachates were commingled from cells operating as a bio-actor.

Detailed landfill leachate plume mapping using 2D and 3D electrical resistivity tomography - with correlation to ionic strength measured in screens

TL;DR: In this article, 2D and large scale 3D electrical resistivity tomography were used at a heavily contaminated landfill in Grindsted, Denmark to assess the risks and investigate the migration of leachate from the landfill, 2D profiles describe both the variations along the groundwater flow as well as the plume extension across the flow directions.

Mapping of landfills using time-domain spectral induced polarization data: the Eskelund case study

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used time-domain induced polarization data for the delineation and characterization of the former landfill site at Eskelund, Denmark, with optimized acquisition parameters combined with a new inversion algorithm.
