RESUMO

In the past, the disposal of solid residue without any type of treatment and control was a common and widespread practice. As a result of that, the old areas used as dump have become a serious environmental and public health problem. Some of these areas are being reused in constructions now known as landfills, this time in a way that they arent a threat anymore. The objective of this research is to analyze the groundwater under a municipal area of residue disposal built on the land of an old irregular dump. For this purpose, the physical characteristics of the area (geomorphology, geology, hydrometeorology and hydrogeology) were studied. With the results from the hydrometeorology analyzes it was possible to estimate the quantity of meteoric water under the central cell which was compared to the production of leachate in the central cell; the difference between the estimated (34.006m3 ) and the produced (36.338m3) was 6,42% in 2005. To characterize the groundwater quality, samples from ground and superficial water were taken from the area surrounding the central cell every three months during 2005 and 2006. The parameters whose results are above reference values for groundwater (CETESB, 2005 e Portaria 518, 2004) were: aluminum, arsenic, barium, lead, chlorate, coliform total, color, iron, manganese, mercury, nickel, solids total dissolved, sulphate and turbidity. The parameters whose results were above intervention value for superficial water class III (CONAMA, 2005) were: aluminum, color phosphate, phosphor, manganese, odor, oils and grease and solids dissolved. The results of these analyzes indicate that theres an alteration in these waters, probably due to old residues disposed of that are still a source of contamination, but these results didnt provide any evidence as of to prove that the central cell is participating in this alteration of the ground and superficial water.
