TRAVEL AND JOINING INSTRUCTIONS

There are three main international airports in Bulgaria: in Sofia (430 km from Sunny Beach), Varna (90 km from

Sunny Beach) and Burgas (35 km from Sunny Beach).

There are several different ways to get from Sofia, Varna or Burgas to Sunny Beach.

by bus: Please note that you can take a bus from Sofia or Varna to Sunny Beach, but there is no public bus

service from Burgas Airport to Sunny Beach. To go to the bus station in Sofia or Varna, take a taxi from the

airport. It is advisable to ask the taxi driver approximately how much the trip will cost before getting into the car as

he may overcharge you later.

There are buses from Sofia or Varna to Burgas on the hour. Take those buses which stop at Sunny Beach or

Nesebar. Alternatively, you can travel to Burgas, but then you will have to take another bus to Sunny Beach (45

km away). The journey from Sofia to Sunny Beach is approximately 7 hours and from Varna to Sunny Beach

approximately 1 hour 30 min.

by car: you can order a car from the selected hotels which we offer to book for you. Please inform us by email to

send you the necessary information. The hotel will issue an invoice for the amount you pay.

by taxi: we recommend that you use a taxi from Burgas Airport to Sunny Beach. It will be too expensive to travel

by taxi from Sofia or Varna, unless you are a group of three or four.

Abstract

Biologically stabilized landfill leachate usually requires further removal of organic substances andammoniacal-N before final discharge. Chemical oxidation may be a convenient method for removal oforganics but does not appear efficient in ammoniacal-N removal. Under the best operationalconditions lab-scale application of electrochemical oxidation to treatment of leachate with lowBOD/COD ratios and high ammoniacal-N content resulted in 75% COD removal and 100%

ammoniacal-N oxidation. Ammoniacal-N oxidation appears to follow chemical oxidation by chlorineand chlorites formed by electrochemical conversion of chlorides in the leachate (1600 mg/l). Further

developments on pilot plant are on progress.

Key words:forest floor, surface soil, organic matter, nutrients accumulation, marquis ecosystem

1. INTRODUCTION

Biological stabilization in landfill leachate may be a result of application of pre-treatment strategies,

of degradation processes within the landfill and their eventual enhancement or of biological treatmentof the leachate. Whatever the case the resulting leachate may still contain high COD values (generallyhigher than 1000 mg/l), low BOD/COD ratio and significant concentrations of ammoniacal-N andhalogenated compounds.

2. FUNDAMENTALS OF CHEMICAL OXIDATION

2.1 Organics and other compounds in biodegraded leachateThe organic content of MSW landfill leachate may vary extensively according to different influencingparameters and can be roughly classified into three main groups (Christensen, 1982; cit. in Kylefors,1997 ) :

Body text: The body text begins after a blank line from the key words. Do not indent paragraphs. Blank lines

should be left only if necessary. Headings in the text are written with Bold capital letters after a blank line, aligned

left. They are numbered using Arabic numerals. Subheadings have an initial capital letter and the following small

letters in Italics. They use multi-level numbering with Arabic numerals, such as 1.1; 1.1.1; 1.1.2; 1.2; 1.3 etc.

2. MATERIAL AND METHODS

2.1. Plant material

Aerial parts ofSatureja hortensis L., Thymus vulgaris L., Salvia officinalis L. andMentha piperita L.(Lamiaceae) were obtained from plant culture of the Crop Research Institute, Prague. They were oven-

dried at 40 C for 72 h, stored at room temperature and milled prior to extraction experiments.

2.2. Insects

The housefly Musca domestica L. (Dip., Muscidae), larvae 4th

instar and adults 3-4 days old,Spodoptera littoralis (Lep., Noctuidae) (larvae 4

thinstar, 35 5 mg weight) and Culex

quinquefasciatus SAY (Dip.) larvae 4th instar, were obtained from the stock culture maintained in theCrop Research Institute, Dept. of Entomology.

2. SPATIAL TECHNOLOGIES AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE

Spatial technologies are generally considered Remote Sensing, GIS and GPS, but could also include

other related technologies such as navigation systems. They depend on a number of interrelated

disciplines and technologies (see figure below.) These technologies are becoming increasing seamless

and being utilized both in

Relationship of spatial technologies and supporting disciplines

analysis and real time applications. The comprehensive study of spatial technologies, geographic

information and the supporting disciplines have now been placed under the rubric of Geographic

Information Science (GIScience) (Longley 2005).

Figures, tables, diagrams and formulas: Figures, tables and diagrams have to be incorporated in the text

electronically, irrespective of the programme they have been made with. They can be colour or black-and-white.

Before incorporating figures and diagrams in the paper, they have to be saved as a single image. Figures, tables
