Minimization Of Heavy Metals Migration From Landfill Leachate By Using Admixture Of Laterite Soil And Pressmud

This study emphasizes on field investigation and laboratory experiments involving characterization of enhancing laterite soil as daily soil cover and their suitability as proposed daily soil cover at the specifics landfill site. In this study, the laterite soil samples were mixed with waste from...
