landfill disposal
Landfill disposal involves placing waste into designated sites called landfills, where it is buried in carefully engineered layers. These sites are designed to contain the waste, manage leachate (contaminated liquid), and control gases like methane produced during decomposition. Modern landfills aim to minimize environmental impact through liners, drainage systems, and gas collection methods. Over time, waste decomposes slowly, turning into landfill leachate and gases, with efforts to monitor and reduce any potential pollution. Landfilling is a common way to manage non-recyclable waste safely while controlling environmental risks.
