Abstract

Odlagališta otpada u novije vrijeme čine nužno zlo. Potreba za njima sve je veća budući da se povećava stanovništvo na Zemlji, a time i količina otpada koji se gomila. Odlagalište „Piškornica“ budući je Regionalni centar za gospodarenje otpadom, njegova je svrha određena direktivama i pravilnicima Europske unije i zakonima Republike Hrvatske. Ovaj završni rad uzima u obzir položaj odlagališta, količinu otpada koji se odlaže i količinu nastalih procjednih voda te njihovu obradu, kao i mogući... More utjecaj procjednih voda na podzemnu vodu ukoliko dođe do njihova prelijevanja. Geološka podloga i hidrogeološke značajke pokazuju da je područje vodonosnika ugroženo odlagalištem otpada, jer se radi o riječnom aluviju i naslagama pijeska i šljunka koji čine dobar vodonosnik s kvalitetnom podzemnom vodom koja se koristi u vodoopskrbi velikog područja oko grada Koprivnice. Stoga, ukoliko dođe do zagađenja podzemne vode, gotovo svi stanovnici grada i okolnih naselja ugroženi su, jer je vodonosnik ispod odlagališta otpada najveći izvor pitke vode za velik dio stanovništva grada i okolice. Sastav procjednih voda je kompleksan, raznolik i štetan te odražava raznovrsnost otpada koji se odlaže. Kolika je zapravo toksičnost i štetnost procjednih voda za okoliš i ljude nije teško zaključiti s obzirom na njen sastav, boju i miris. Zagađenje podzemne vode može se spriječiti odgovarajućim i savjesnim zbrinjavanjem otpada i procjednih voda i pravovremenim reagiranjem, ako i dođe do njenog izlijevanja u okoliš, što se može postići pridržavanjem pravilnika i direktiva Europske unije, a time i zakona Republike Hrvatske.

Abstract (english)

Landfills have lately been a necessary evil. The need for them grows as the population on the Earth increases, but also as the amount of waste produced increases. The Piškornica landfill is the future Regional Waste Management Centre, and its purpose is determined by EU directives and regulations, and laws of the Republic of Croatia. This thesis takes into account the location of the landfill, as well the amount of waste deposited and leachate generated, its treatment, and the possible... More impact of leachate on groundwater in case of overflows. The geological and hydrogeological features indicate that the aquifer area is endangered by the landfill as river alluvium and sand and gravel deposits form a good aquifer with quality groundwater used in the water supply of a large area around the town of Koprivnica. The composition of the leachate is complex, diverse and harmful, and it reflects the diversity of waste. The toxicity and harmfulness of leachate to the environment and humans is not difficult to deduce given its composition, color and odor. Therefore, if groundwater pollution occurs, almost all residents of the town and surrounding settlements are at risk because the aquifer below the landfill is the largest source of drinking water for majority of the town and the surrounding population. Groundwater pollution can be prevented by proper and conscientious disposal of waste and leachate, also a timely response in case of leakage occurrence, which can be achieved by complying with the regulations and directives of the European Union, and thus the laws of the Republic of Croatia.
