A landfill is an engineered site designed for the safe disposal of waste materials, preventing environmental contamination. Landfills manage both non-hazardous and hazardous waste, with specific measures to contain and neutralize hazardous substances over time.
The uses of landfills are diverse and critical. These are used for managing residential, commercial, and industrial garbage among others, which cannot be recycled or incinerated. The advantages of landfills are numerous including their ability to handle large volumes of waste, and the possibility for recovery of energy through landfill gas and they thus form part of integrated waste management planning.
Landfills can be classified into various categories based on their design and purpose. These include:
Another classification of landfills can also be done based on the type of waste they handle and their design features. These include:
By using this standard classification, your blog will accurately reflect the types of landfills recognized in the field of civil engineering.
