Effect of contaminant on shear strength properties of soil of a landfill site / Mohamad Rosdi Daud
Landfill sites have been used for many years for the disposal of industrial and domestic wastes. It is anticipated that sanitary landfill would be the most cost effective means for disposing solid wastes. Landfill site located at Bt. 10, Jalan Bukit Kemuning, Kelang which cover 12 acres of the area...
