An urgent demand for the existing landfill Tangier to host household and industrial waste in the city until 2016 Expected opening of future landfill dates. This application requires to study at the exploitation and especially the compaction mode to estimate the remaining life of the landfill and to propose improvements to withstand up to 2016. This article presents an overview of the physical characteristics of household and similar waste of the Tangier landfill, especially composition, granulometry and moisture. The aim of this work is to know whether the mode of compaction used is valid for the landfill persists until 2016 if not what are the appropriate solutions improvements in this case.
Natural fracturing includes all the mechanical discontinuities affecting the rock matrix. These natural fractures usually constitute preferential drains or permeability barriers which partially control the movement of fluids during production. The fracturing map of the Calcareous Dorsale in the Northern Rif was established using remote sensing (photo-interpretation) and GIS techniques, as well as field measurements of fractures randomly distributed in six microtectonic stations. Firstly, using the above mentioned approaches the main sets of fractures are detected. The dominant direction of fractures corresponds to the NE-SW direction which also coincides with the dominant orientation of the hydrographic network. Thus, the results from these two methodological approaches permit the development of a hypothetical scenario of karst groundwater circulations between the different units of the study area and other nearby units.
