Specialist lecture and environmental technology seminar

Special lecture on landfill construction and environmental engineering seminar at iTN.

On October 25, 2016, and November 1, 2016, the special lecture on landfill construction took place at the iTN as part of the TESEUS project. As the lecturer, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Sänger delivered six lecture sessions to students in the NÖFb14 and NÖN14 classes, providing in-depth content on the legal framework, planning, construction, quality assurance, aftercare, and post-closure reuse of landfills. In addition to theoretical explanations, the students benefited from the lecturer’s practical experience, which he has gained over many years of work as an expert and consultant. Upon successful completion of the course, the students received their certificates.

Following this special lecture series, the Environmental Engineering Seminar will take place at the iTN during the 2016/17 winter semester. These events will provide in-depth knowledge, ranging from the geological requirements for landfill construction to simulations of the soil water balance and the role of vegetation in surface sealing. To this end, representatives from academia and industry were invited to present current research findings in the field of landfill construction and provide insights into practical applications.

These events are funded as part of the TESEUS project through the SN-CZ 2014–2020 —an EU program designed to promote cross-border cooperation between the Free State of Saxony and the Czech Republic. The main objective of the TESEUS project is to bring together different fields of expertise to create the conditions for improved use of regional environmental resources. The events will take place at Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences at the Institute for Process Development, Peat, and Natural Products Research (iTN) under the project leadership of Prof. Schoenherr. Other project partners include the Dresden University of Applied Sciences, the Technical University of Liberec, and Charles University in Prague.
