Optimization of soil acidification in landfill using wood ash / Fatihah Abdullah

One of the characteristic of landfill soil is either in acidic condition or alkaline condition. The pH value for this soil is depends on several factors, for example soil type, or type of garbage that gathered together in one place, that could be produced the acidic and alkaline. Wood ash was use...
