Impressions from the last years
For more than 30 years, the Karlsruhe Landfill and Contaminated Sites Seminar has been one of the most important conferences on landfill issues. This year we are again focusing on an exciting selection of current and diverse topics. Although a specific focus has not been set, instead we will present a wide range of interesting technical papers on current topics as well as numerous reports from the field.
