Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of municipal solid waste landfill remediation technology, and in particular to a comprehensive assessment method for municipal solid waste landfill excavation. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, urban domestic waste in my country is increasing at a rate of 8% to 15% annually. Most formal domestic waste landfills are nearing the end of their service life, resulting in a severe shortage of landfill capacity and increasingly prominent management issues. Domestic waste landfills not only occupy a large amount of land resources but also cause the emission of methane, carbon dioxide, and other harmful gases, as well as leachate pollution of groundwater.
[0003] However, current landfill excavation operations mainly rely on engineering experience and lack a unified, standardized, and quantitative comprehensive assessment system. This poses risks such as biogas explosions, slope collapses, damage to the geomembrane, leachate overflow, and foul odors, and fails to meet the requirements for safe construction, environmental compliance, and full-process control. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a comprehensive evaluation method for the excavation of municipal solid waste landfills. This method aims to solve the technical problems in the existing technology where the excavation of municipal solid waste landfills mainly relies on engineering experience, lacks a unified, standardized, and quantitative comprehensive evaluation system, and has hidden dangers such as biogas explosions, slope collapses, damage to the geomembrane, leachate overflow, and odor nuisance. It also fails to meet the technical requirements of safe construction, environmental compliance, and full-process controllability.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs a comprehensive evaluation method for the excavation of municipal solid waste landfills, comprising the following steps:
[0006] Conduct a comprehensive survey of landfills, including engineering, waste, environmental and external conditions, and establish a complete basic database.
[0007] The landfill stabilization assessment is conducted based on indicators such as methane concentration and organic matter to determine the stabilization level of the landfill and whether it can be excavated and whether pretreatment is required.
[0008] The safety risk assessment for excavation quantifies the risks from four aspects: stockpile stability, gas explosion prevention, seepage prevention, and slope collapse prevention, and provides control requirements.
[0009] The environmental impact assessment involves a comprehensive evaluation of leachate, odor, dust, noise, and secondary pollution.
[0010] The suitability assessment of construction and disposal was conducted to match the optimal excavation, seepage prevention, drainage, and rainwater and sewage separation processes, and to determine the waste screening and resource recovery disposal pathways.
[0011] Economic and schedule assessments were conducted to calculate the total project cost and reasonable schedule, and to verify the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of implementation.
[0012] The entire process is monitored in real time and weighted, and the feasibility of excavation is determined by level, and a complete implementation plan is output.
[0013] Among the steps involved in conducting a comprehensive survey of the landfill's engineering, waste, environmental, and external conditions to establish a complete basic database:
[0014] Collect data on the volume of the pile, the height of the pile, the slope gradient, the bearing capacity of the stratum, the groundwater level, the thickness / type of the geomembrane, the size of the drainage blind ditch, the diameter of the HDPE pipe, and the spacing and number of the gas wells.
[0015] The tests included the landfill age, waste composition percentage, moisture content (35%–60%), organic matter content (5%–30%), and compaction density (≥0.8 t / m³). 3 and degree of mineralization;
[0016] Monitor groundwater pH, ammonia nitrogen, and heavy metals; leachate COD, BOD5, ammonia nitrogen, and SS; atmospheric ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and odor concentrations; and soil heavy metal and organic matter indicators.
[0017] Statistics include transportation distance, incineration / disposal / backfill site capacity, distance to surrounding sensitive points, road weight limits, and traffic conditions.
[0018] In the landfill stabilization assessment, the stability level of the landfill is determined based on indicators such as methane concentration and organic matter, which determines whether excavation is permissible and whether pretreatment is required:
[0019] The methane concentration, organic matter content, leachate yield, and pile settling rate are all measured to be ≤5 mm / month.
[0020] The stability is classified into three levels: high stability, medium stability, and low stability. High stability is defined as: methane < 5% and organic matter < 10%; medium stability is defined as: methane 5%–15% and organic matter 10%–20%; and low stability is defined as: methane > 15% and organic matter > 20%.
[0021] The treatment is based on the severity level: high stability requires direct excavation; medium stability requires forced aeration followed by aerobic pretreatment before excavation; and low stability requires prohibition of excavation and continued pretreatment.
[0022] The assessment of excavation safety risks quantifies risks from four aspects: stockpile stability, gas explosion prevention, seepage prevention, and slope collapse prevention, and outlines the steps for prevention and control requirements.
[0023] Calculate the safety factor of the pile body slope, where the slope safety factor is ≥1.2, the slope gradient is ≤1:3, the layered excavation thickness is ≤1.5~3.0m, the platform width is ≥3m, and the platform height difference is 5~10m;
[0024] The methane explosion warning threshold is set at 5%, the methane level at the working face is <5%, the longitudinal and transverse spacing of the gas wells is 30m, and they are arranged in a quincunx pattern.
[0025] Delineate the protection zone of the geomembrane. Mechanical excavation is strictly prohibited within 1.0m of the HDPE geomembrane. The thickness of the protective layer on the geomembrane should be ≥300mm.
[0026] In the working pit, a 30° mechanical ramp is reserved according to the slope ratio of 1:3, and a 12m×6m working platform is set up every 7m of depth.
[0027] In the environmental impact assessment, a comprehensive evaluation of leachate, odor, dust, noise, and secondary pollution is conducted:
[0028] The leachate collection, drainage, and treatment capacity and the effect of rainwater and sewage separation were assessed, and the risk of groundwater pollution spread was calculated. The leachate collection slope was ≥2%, the equalization tank capacity was sufficient for more than 7 days of storage, the rainwater and sewage separation efficiency was ≥95%, and there were 6 groundwater monitoring wells.
[0029] Calculate the intensity of the odor source, verify the coverage of the deodorization equipment, the temporary airtightness of the work surface and the compliance of the site boundary, and ensure that the odor concentration meets the standard of ≤20, the spray radius of the fog cannon is ≥30m, the agent spraying rate is 20~35L / min, and the airtightness of the work surface is 100%.
[0030] The effectiveness of construction machinery noise, road dust control, vehicle washing and closed transportation measures was evaluated, with construction noise ≤70dB, road watering frequency ≥3 times / day, 100% washing of vehicles leaving the site, and tires free of mud.
[0031] Verify the waste transfer, screening residue, and hazardous waste identification, with 100% of waste being transported in a sealed manner, screening impurities content ≤10%, and hazardous waste identification rate 100%, and entrust qualified units to handle the waste.
[0032] Among the steps involved are assessing the compatibility between construction and disposal, matching the optimal excavation, seepage prevention, drainage, and rainwater / sewage separation processes, and determining the waste screening and resource recovery pathways:
[0033] Excavation shall be carried out according to the conditions of the pile body, and the excavation method shall be zoning + layering shallow excavation, with the width of the transport ramp ≥ 5m;
[0034] Matching the groundwater blind drain, leachate collection pipe, HDPE membrane repair and welding inspection process, wherein the groundwater blind drain slope is ≥2%, the leachate main pipe is DN400 and the branch pipe is DN200 HDPE perforated pipe, and the HDPE membrane welding air pressure test is 0.25MPa, with pressure holding for 3~5min;
[0035] The design incorporates a rainwater and sewage separation system consisting of temporary coverings, flexible drainage ditches, intercepting ditches, and sump pits for forced drainage. The rainwater and sewage separation system uses a 1.0mm thick HDPE membrane for covering. The temporary drainage ditches are 0.4m×0.4m~1.0m×0.6m in size, and the sump pits have a forced drainage capacity that meets the storm return period P=1.
[0036] The grading process is based on a drum screen and air classification. The path for the oversize material to be incinerated, the undersize material to be backfilled / resourced, and the hazardous waste to be outsourced for disposal is determined. The particle size is divided into 60mm and 80mm. 60% of the oversize material is transported off-site for incineration, and 40% of the undersize material is backfilled on-site. The moisture content is controlled to be ≤40%.
[0037] Among the steps involved in economic and schedule assessment, calculating the total project cost and reasonable schedule, and verifying the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of implementation:
[0038] The costs of exploration, pretreatment, excavation, screening, transportation, environmental protection, testing, and emergency response are calculated separately.
[0039] Based on the daily excavation and screening capacity, equipment and personnel configuration, the baseline construction period is calculated, with allowances made for the rainy season and environmental constraints. The daily processing capacity is 1000~4500m³. 3 The equipment configuration includes 2-4 excavators, 8-15 transfer vehicles, and 1-2 screening lines;
[0040] Calculate the unit volume treatment cost and resource-saving cost, and evaluate the overall cost-effectiveness. The construction period is calculated by dividing the total amount by the daily production capacity, with a 15% to 20% margin reserved for the rainy season, and the total construction period deviation is ≤ ±10%.
[0041] An economic assessment was conducted, with the provincial cost of resource resolution accounting for ≥15% and the unit disposal cost being lower than the industry average.
[0042] Among the steps, the following steps are involved: real-time monitoring and weighted scoring of the entire process, graded assessment of excavation feasibility, and output of a complete implementation plan:
[0043] Dynamically monitor methane concentration, slope displacement, leachate level, groundwater quality, odor concentration, and seepage prevention integrity, with a monitoring frequency of once per day;
[0044] The comprehensive score is calculated by weighting indicators such as stabilization, safety, environment, construction, and economy. The weighted scores are as follows: stabilization 20%, safety 30%, environment 25%, construction 15%, and economy 10%.
[0045] The classification is as follows: ≥80 points is Grade A, which allows direct excavation; 60~79 points is Grade B, which requires rectification before excavation; <60 points is Grade C, which prohibits excavation.
[0046] Output feasibility reports, construction plans, disposal plans, risk control lists, and emergency response plans.
[0047] This invention provides a comprehensive assessment method for the excavation of municipal solid waste landfills, comprising the following steps: conducting a comprehensive survey of the landfill's engineering, waste, environment, and external conditions to establish a complete basic database; assessing the landfill's stabilization by determining the stability level of the landfill based on indicators such as methane concentration and organic matter, thus determining whether excavation is feasible and whether pretreatment is required; assessing the excavation safety risks by quantifying risks from four aspects: landfill stability, gas explosion prevention, seepage prevention, and slope collapse prevention, and providing control requirements; assessing the environmental impact by comprehensively evaluating leachate, odor, dust, noise, and secondary pollution; and assessing the suitability of construction and disposal. The assessment process involves matching the optimal excavation, seepage prevention, drainage, and rainwater / sewage separation technologies, and determining the waste screening and resource recovery disposal pathways. Economic and timeline assessments are conducted to calculate the total project cost and reasonable construction period, verifying feasibility and cost-effectiveness. Real-time monitoring and weighted scoring of the entire process are implemented to classify excavation feasibility and output a complete implementation plan. By establishing a comprehensive, quantitative excavation assessment system, safety hazards such as biogas explosions, slope collapses, and mechanical damage to the seepage membrane are effectively eliminated. Environmental risks related to leachate drainage, odor diffusion, dust, and noise are precisely controlled, achieving the goals of safe construction, environmental compliance, and full-process controllability.

[0092] S503: Design a rainwater and sewage separation system consisting of temporary covering, flexible drainage ditches, intercepting ditches, and sump pits for forced drainage. The rainwater and sewage separation system is covered with a 1.0mm thick HDPE membrane. The temporary drainage ditch dimensions are 0.4m×0.4m~1.0m×0.6m. The forced drainage capacity of the sump pit meets the storm return period P=1.
[0093] S504: The grading process adopts a drum screen + air classification process to determine the path of incineration of oversize material, backfilling / resource utilization of undersize material, and outsourced disposal of hazardous waste. The particle size division is 60mm / 80mm. 60% of the oversize material is transported off-site for incineration, and 40% of the undersize material is backfilled on-site. The moisture content is controlled to be ≤40%.
[0094] In the above process, excavation is first carried out according to the conditions of the pile body. The excavation method adopts zoning + layering shallow excavation, and the width of the transport walkway is ≥5m. Matching is the process for groundwater blind drains, leachate collection pipes, HDPE membrane repair, and welding inspection. The slope of the groundwater blind drain is ≥2%, the main leachate pipe is DN400, and the branch pipes are DN200 HDPE perforated pipes. HDPE membrane welding pressure testing is performed at 0.25MPa, with pressure holding for 3~5min. Temporary covering, flexible drainage ditches, intercepting ditches, and sump pits are designed for strong drainage. The system employs a separate stormwater and sewage system, with the stormwater and sewage separated by a 1.0mm thick HDPE membrane. Temporary drainage ditches range in size from 0.4m×0.4m to 1.0m×0.6m, and the sump has a strong drainage capacity that meets the storm recurrence interval P=1. Next, a drum screen + air classification process is used for grading to determine the pathways for incineration of oversize material, backfilling / resource recovery of undersize material, and outsourced hazardous waste disposal. The particle size separation is 60mm / 80mm. 60% of the oversize material is transported off-site for incineration, and 40% of the undersize material is backfilled on-site. The moisture content is controlled to ≤40%.

[0099] S603: Calculate the unit volume treatment cost and resource-saving cost, and evaluate the overall cost-effectiveness. The construction period is calculated by dividing the total amount by the daily production capacity, with a 15%~20% margin reserved for the rainy season, and the total construction period deviation is ≤±10%.
[0100] S604: Conduct an economic assessment, where the cost of resource resolution accounts for ≥15%, and the unit disposal cost is lower than the industry average.
[0101] In the above process, the costs of exploration, pretreatment, excavation, screening, transportation, environmental protection, testing, and emergency response are first calculated item by item. Then, based on the daily excavation and screening capacity, equipment, and personnel configuration, the baseline construction period is calculated, with allowances made for the rainy season and environmental constraints. The daily processing capacity is 1000~4500m³. 3The equipment configuration includes 2-4 excavators, 8-15 transport vehicles, and 1-2 screening lines. The unit volume treatment cost and resource-saving cost are then calculated to evaluate the overall cost-effectiveness. The construction period is calculated as total volume ÷ daily production capacity, with a 15%-20% margin for the rainy season. The total construction period deviation is ≤±10%.
[0102] Subsequently, an economic assessment was conducted, in which the cost of resource resolution accounted for ≥15%, and the unit disposal cost was lower than the industry average.

[0104] In this implementation method, the entire process is monitored in real time and weighted, the feasibility of excavation is determined in stages, and a complete implementation plan is output. The specific process is as follows:
[0105] S701: Dynamically monitor methane concentration, slope displacement, leachate level, groundwater quality, odor concentration and seepage prevention integrity, with a monitoring frequency of once per day;
[0106] S702: The comprehensive score is calculated by weighting indicators of stabilization, safety, environment, construction, and economy. The weighted scores are as follows: stabilization 20%, safety 30%, environment 25%, construction 15%, and economy 10%.
[0107] S703: Classification and judgment shall be carried out, of which ≥80 points are Grade A and can be excavated directly, 60~79 points are Grade B and can be excavated after rectification, and <60 points are Grade C and excavation is prohibited.
[0108] S704: Output feasibility report, construction plan, disposal plan, risk control list and emergency plan.
[0109] In the above process, methane concentration, slope displacement, leachate level, groundwater quality, odor concentration, and seepage prevention integrity are dynamically monitored once a day. Then, a comprehensive score is calculated by weighting indicators of stabilization, safety, environment, construction, and economy, with the weighted scores as follows: stabilization 20%, safety 30%, environment 25%, construction 15%, and economy 10%. After that, a classification judgment is made, with scores ≥80 being Grade A (direct excavation allowed), 60-79 being Grade B (excavation after rectification), and <60 being Grade C (excavation prohibited).
