Abstract

This paper shows an evaluation of the utilization potential of laterite soil layer, characteristic of the city of Londrina, Paraná State, as material and support for landfill solid wastes. At first, we provided a brief definition of the solid residue, types of embankments, soil-contaminating interaction and contaminating processes. Then, we described the study area location and the layer characteristics of the soil under investigation. The soil evaluation was based on geotechnical criteria regarding physical, chemical and mineralogical characteristics of the soil, which were obtained from a laboratory experiment and from results published in technical articles. Grading and classification were done according to the attributes suggested by Zuquette (1993). The final evaluation on the use of the layer of laterite soil for the implantation of the sanitary bank was positive
