Abstract

The case under analysis (actually a dual case since it involves a success and also a failure) takes place in the region of Andalusia, more specifically in the province of Huelva. It is exemplified by the building up of a waste facility (micro-encapsulating plant) in Palos de la Frontera in 1992, after a linked and failed experience regarding the attempt to install a landfill in Gibraleon.
