The methods to intensify waste decomposition

Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2011, Vol 1, Issue 6

Abstract

Landfilling is still a popular waste disposal method. However, currently it is insufficient practice for effective waste management. Conventional waste disposal leads to pollutant emissions by a long periods of time and requires applying specific emission control and treatment method. Old landfill might require aftercare for decades or centuries. The consequences of this is long –term risks for environment and human health. Currently, the primary task posed for modern landfill management systems is the use of efficient and economic technology of waste treatment and disposal. The paper presents, according data from subject literature, the impact of leachate recirculation and aerobic degradation of waste and mechanical-biological treatment of wastes before their storage on the reduction of pollution emissions from landfills.<br/><br/>
