Introduction, definition and classification of solid wastes, the use of seismic, electric resistivity, induction polarization, self-potential, magnetic, frequency and time domain electromagnetic methods in the appropriate site selection for solid waste storage areas. Evaluation of seismicity of the area to be selected for solid waste storage. Determination of the boundaries of fields which use as solid waste storage and effects of pollutant on the environment of these areas. Determining the location of the metallic and plastic materials stored in these areas. |
