Landfill Management

Landfill management refers to the processes and practices used to operate and maintain landfills, which are sites for disposing of waste. Effective management ensures safe waste placement, minimizes environmental impact, and controls issues like leachate (liquid waste) and gas emissions. It involves regular monitoring, maintaining proper coverage of waste, and implementing systems for recycling and waste reduction. Proper management also considers community concerns, aiming to reduce odors and pests. Ultimately, the goal is to balance waste disposal needs with environmental protection and public health.
