This paper presents the results of an experimental study carried out to determine the effect ofsolid waste size, leachate recirculation and nutrient balance on the rate of municipal solid waste (MSW) biodegradation.

This paper presents a construction method, the bio-polymer slurry drainage trench, which is a modification of the well known slurry trench method which uses biodegradable trenching slurry to temporarily support the trench walls and control trench width.
