Özet
Over the last few decades and due to the rapid population growth, solid waste generation is increasing rabidly. The landfilling process is considered as the main disposal method for municipal solid waste (MSW) due to the simple and applicable technique, and economic features. However, different environmental problems resulting from solid waste landfills have been reported. Landfills contain high levels of organic materials, ammonia, and heavy metals are producing leachate, which causes a possible future pollution of soil, ground and surface water. Moreover, the mismanagement of non-sanitary landfills and dumping sites may contribute to more complicated problems in the environment. In this chapter, the main environmental problems related to landfills including soil, water and air contamination are discussed and evaluated. The sustainable solutions and management for the environmental problems related to solid waste landfills including landfill design and location, leachate management and treatment, and gas emission control are highlighted and discussed. Moreover, the effect of unsuitable locations of landfills on the environment is discussed and evaluated. © 2021 Scrivener Publishing LLC.
