Answer:

Landfill and waste disposal

Explanation:

Landfill is one of the most important method of garbage disposal.Its a very carefully designed structure built into or on top of the ground in which trash is isolated from the surrounding environment (groundwater, air, rain). This isolation is accomplished with a bottom liner and daily covering of soil.

A sanitary landfill uses a clay liner to isolate the trash from the environment. A municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill uses a synthetic (plastic) liner to isolate the trash from the environment

The purpose of a landfill is to bury the trash in such a way that it will be isolated from groundwater, will be kept dry and will not be in contact with air. Under these conditions, trash will not decompose much. A landfill is not like a compost pile, where the purpose is to bury trash in such a way that it will decompose quickly.

Landfill and waste disposal

Explanation:

  • Landfill is one of the most significant waste disposal techniques. This is a very well constructed building installed under or on top of the field where the trash is separated from the natural atmosphere (land water, soil and rain). Such separation is accomplished by way of a bottom liner and regular soil cover.
  • To separate the waste from the atmosphere a sanitary landfill requires a clay lining. A municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill uses a synthetic (plastic) membrane to separate the waste from the atmosphere The aim of a landfill is to bury the waste in a way that isolates it from the soil, holds it dry and does not come into touch with air.
