Wetting Patterns Estimation Under Subsurface Drip Irrigation Systems for Different Discharge Rates and Soil Types

2018

Knowledge about the moisture distribution pattern shape and volume of soil wetted by an emitter is the basic need for better subsurface drip irrigation system. The dimensions of the pattern are imperative in selecting the right spacing between emitters and the suitable distance between laterals.

Mathematical modelling of biogas from municipal solid waste landfil

2016

Sanitary landfills for municipal solid wastes can be considered as large biological reactors where the organic fraction of municipal solid waste undergoes anaerobic digestion producing gas and liquid emissions. Leachate production from municipal sanitary landfills is currently recognized as a major environmental burden associated with municipal solid waste management and it may be responsible for local pollution of groundwater and soil. Moreover, the fate of the organic compounds within the landfill body is of primary importance since it directly influences the production of landfill gas. The aim of the paper is to propose an integrated mathematical model able to simulate, on one hand, the …
