Comparison of these values shows that the excess of leachate for further utilisationis approximately 40.000 m 3 per year.Since 1996, the leachate has been transported by septic trucks to a sewage treatment plant inPiaseczno. In the nearest years, the preliminary purification of the leachate in the biologicaltreatment plant located close to the <strong>landfill</strong> is planned, followed by directing it by a pipe canal forfinal purification in a sewage treatment plant in Moczydłów.6. Slope stability analysis for reinforcement designIn 1995 a landslide occurred on the northern slope of the <strong>Lubna</strong> <strong>landfill</strong>. As a result, it becameobvious that reinforcements were needed to improve the stability of the slopes of the <strong>landfill</strong> toprevent other landslides. Therefore, shear strength parameters of solid municipal wastes weredetermined, i.e. waste density (ρ), angle of internal friction (φ) and cohesion intercept (c). Thedetermined parameters are presented in the section concerning investigations of wasteproperties. The shear strength parameters resulting from these tests were verified on the basis ofback-analysis of the landslide.The stability analysis results the <strong>Lubna</strong> <strong>landfill</strong>, according to classical and FEM methods, givefactors of safety in the scope of 1.05–1.15 for natural slopes, whereas for slopes with berms itsvalues increase to 13 from Bishop’s method (Fig. 12) and to 127 from FEM (Fig. 13).12
