Polský geologický institut na pomoc ochraně životního prostředí
Solid waste landfill 13-08-2004 The Polish Geological Institute, as a geological
and hydrogeological survey, ensures economic and ecological safety of the State
in terms of management of natural resources, especially mineral deposits and
groundwater. The Institute also monitors the environment and predicts natural
hazard and anthropogenic risks. Nearly half of the Polish Geological Institutes
current researches concern environmental protection problems. The investigations
enable recognition of the causes and consequences of degradation of the Earths
surface, to allow to develop undertakings which will provide rational natural
resources management. The important elements of the Earth’s surface protection,
providing ecological safety to the surrounding environment, are modern waste
landfills. The Polish Geological Institute offers a wide variety of services in
waste management including landfill planning through complex monitoring to
reclamation. Waste management Waste management planning for voivodships,
districts and communes according to the national policy and legislative
requirements. Waste management planning for economic entities Hazardous waste
management planning The Polish Geological Institute prepared the National Waste
Management Plan (NWMP) on commission of the Minister of the Environment. The
plan includes detailed analysis and assessment of the current waste management
(including municipal, industrial and hazardous waste) and a proposal of
short-term and long-term waste disposal strategy. The NWMP was approved by the
Council of Ministers on October 29, 2002. Waste storage Selection of landfill
sites according to waste type and in accordance with guidance by the Ministry of
the Environment, taking into consideration e.g. virtues of nature and geological
setting. Determination of the geological structure and hydrogeological
conditions within the landfill site and around it. Performing analyses of soil
and water as well as assessment of landfill stability. Preparation of
engineering geological and hydrogeological documentations. Assessment of
possibility of using post-mining areas as waste landfill sites. Preparing a
programme of development of already existing municipal waste landfills. The
Polish Geological Institute prepares the Geoenvironmental Map of Poland (scale
1:50 000) including a thematic layer entitled „Waste storage”. It shows
distribution of existing waste landfills and best locations for new ones. Solid
waste landfill monitoring Preparation of a project of waste landfill monitoring
before, during and after landfill operations as well as its implementation,
including: locating and drilling observation wells (piezometers) for
groundwaters, water level measurements in piezometers, selection of sampling
sites of surface waters, leachate waters and groundwaters, and areas for
monitoring, as well as defining index parameters requiring observations,
determination of geochemical background of surface and ground waters at sites
selected for observations, investigations of subsidence at the landfill surface,
composition of municipal waste, sampling and analyses of index parameters of
surface waters, leachate waters and groundwaters, including: pH, electrical
conductivity, total organic carbon (TOC), heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Pb, Cr 6, Hg),
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). preparation of periodic reports on
monitoring process. Central Chemical Laboratory of the Polish Geological
Institutes is one of the largest accredited chemical laboratories in Poland. It
has a PCA certificate No AB 283 in chemistry and environmental sciences,
according to the standard PN-EN ISO/IEC 17025:2001 for research laboratories.
This accreditation covers 32 research procedures for determination of 346
parameters in water and sewage samples as well as geological and environmental
solid samples. Contamination investigations Analyses of leachate composition
before treatment. Analyses of composition of treated leachate to control the
purification process. Investigations of contaminants migration from a landfill
to soil, groundwater and surface waters: information about extent of the zone of
pollutant transport and changes in concentration, direction and velocity of
flow. Landfill reclamation and restoration planning Development of concepts of
closing and reclamation of waste landfill sites. Development of reclamation
plans for landfill areas after closing the landfill. Preparing reports on the
impact of landfills on the environment at individual stages of their
development. The above described services are provided according to the current
legislation: The Act on Environmental Protection, The Act on the Waste, The
Geological and Mining Law Act, and the regulations of the Minister of the
Environment on detailed requirements regarding siting, operation and closure of
landfills, which regulate monitoring of waste landfills.
