•A landfill is a solid waste disposal method in which discarded materials are buried between layers of earth in an attempt to reduce public health hazards caused by decaying refuse.
•Some solid waste, especially health-care waste, is destroyed using incinerators, which burn discarded materials into ash.

Answer:
Energy from waste plants (EFWs – aka incinerators) take up a considerable amount of space, though generally significantly less than a landfill site would. ... Land is getting harder to come by and is therefore expensive, landfills don't decrease the volume of the waste they contain so do require more space.
