dc.description.abstractInordertoprotect environment and human health, MSW mustbestored regularlyand confidently. For safe and economic MSW storage, significant processes are initialized (dumping, spread out, burying and compacting). Compaction is the one of the most important stages of the storage process. Well compacted MSW renders less volume than the same weighted uncompacted MSW. Furthermore, well compaction provides safer storage area. In this study, the effect of composition, degradation, and energy on the compaction behavior of artificially prepared and natural fresh and aged MSW samples were determined. The standard and modified proctor tests were performed on the fresh and aged samples. Artificial samples were prepared in different compositions to examine the effect of composition. In addition to the synthetic MSW samples, natural MSW samples were provided from municipal landfill area of Manisa city. © 2013 Taylor & Francis Group.
