Exactly 2 years after ELFM IV, the 5th International Symposium on Enhanced Landfill Mining (ELFM V) will take place in Leuven (Belgium) on February 6, 2020. The event will further develop the lessons learned from the previous symposium, ELFM IV organised in February 2018, and from the 2nd seminar on ELFM in the European parliament. It is a one-day event featuring a high-quality, “beyond-science-only” programme on Dynamic Landfill Management and Enhanced Landfill Mining. Registration is now open and free of charge for a maximum of 75 participants on a first come first served basis.
