Waste storing and managing is one of the most challenging problems of the modern economy. Previously, drilling waste did not represent a subject of the so-called waste recoverable and utilizable, for instance applicable to land reclamation. Research works on transforming properties of drilling waste and improving the recovery method aimed at reclamation are presently developed. According to the current regulations, the drilling waste can be applied to recovery processes based on utilizing the waste in question who...

The article is a comprehensive analysis of the problems of ensuring environmental safety in general philosophical, legal (from the standpoint of international and national law), humanitarian, technical and economic and other aspects. The authors justify the need to study these problems from the perspective of an interdisciplinary approach, which greatly expands the possibilities of their study, since it allows us to use the methodology of various branches of scientific knowledge. The aim of the work was to assess ...

At the time of commencement of the documentation and investigation activity on the problem of critical statuses of the tailings dump and decanting ponds at Rosia Montana, with special reference to the decanting ponds ?Valea Seli?tei?, the subject, respectively the studied area presented a accelerated dynamic as regards the degradation of the environmental components. Information gathered from the technical and environmental documentation prepared in previous years and a site visit revealed an extremely precarious ...

Sludge from sewage formats municipal byproducts are considered "undesirable" that focuses remove pollutants from wastewater and can be a danger to the environment.Lupeni dump was born by storing the waste material resulting from the preparation of coal.The material deposited on the two branches of the heap consists of sandstone rocks clay, marl, carbonaceous shales and sandstones.From the analysis it is observed that: the reaction is slightly alkaline soil (pH = 7.4); humus content: medium to good; containing coar...

This paper deals with disinfection of drinking water at ?Aquatim S.A?. The disinfection plant is part of an investment plan to provide conformation with the Romanian Law 485/2002 concerning drinking water quality and European Union Water Frame Directive. The new facility employs modern techniques of storage, dosage, injection and neutralization of chlorine. Under these circumstances, the risk of chlorine leakage decreased and increased the accuracy of chlorine dosage. The regulation and control of the process is c...

To comply with European Union?s rules regarding the environmental protection it is necessary for the all compound feed factories (CFF) to be fitted with modern and performant working equipments, with a high degree of mechanization, automation and computerization, with high productivity and low specific consumption, but also with opportunities for rigorous monitoring of pollutants and dust removed. Taking into account the complexity of the technological flow that takes place in a compound feed factory (CFF), this a...

The paper analysis the influence of indoor temperature in case of a 2-room?s apartment built in the years 1975-1985, upon the thermal heating energy consumption. Thus, the thermal energy consumption is determined considering the thermal insulation measurements of the buildings elements taking in account a variation of the indoor temperature from 20?C until 24?C, according to the Romanian calculus methodology. The resulted values are compared with the experimental measurements realized for a 2 rooms apartment with ...

In recent years, the focus is more, more often put on environmental protection and energy saving, therefore, a variety of alternative materials, and alternative procedures in the field of road construction are search. One potential option is to reduce the temperature in the production, laying and compaction of asphalt mixtures that favourable affects a carbon footprint. This is achieved by the use of organic additives and waxes, chemical agents or water (foamed bitumen). Depending on the additives, it is possible ...

Determination of soil properties is based on soil sampling with low resolution (1- 2 or more samples per hectare) and their analysis in the laboratory. This method does not provide sufficient data to highlight the significant variability of the soil properties for the analysed parcel. This leads to a uniform distribution of the nutrients that can also be synthetic chemical substances (pollutants). Since the soil properties can influence plants growth, high-resolution mapping is required by the help of some sensors...

The present paper aims to present the possibilities for creating a geographical information system in order to facilitate monitoring of the territory, by real-time analysis and providing local administrative information of interest, as well as for efficiently monitoring the achievement of the objectives of sustainable development in Zlatna locality. Zlatna area has a natural and antrophic capital insufficiently appreciated, promoted and exploited due to the lack of a uniform and efficient approach of all existing ...
