[COUNT NOUN] an area filled in by this process; A specially constructed site for safely and effectively disposing of garbage; a site where solid waste burial is controlled and managed; a place for the disposal of garbage and rubbish; buried; Landfill is a method of getting rid of very large amounts of rubbish by burying it in a large deep hole. the environmental costs of landfill; {i} trash heap, dump, land area that is filled with trash and covered with a layer of soil; A landfill is a large deep hole in which very large amounts of rubbish are buried. The rubbish in modern landfills does not rot. the cost of disposing of refuse in landfill sites; A disposal facility or part of a facility where non-hazardous waste is placed in/on the land, carefully lined and monitored, for containment; disposal area where garbage is piled up and eventually covered with dirt and topsoil; A specially engineered site for disposal of solid waste, designed to confine the refuse to the smallest practical area and reduce it to the smallest practical volume; A landfill is an enormous hole, either excavated for the purpose of waste disposal or left over from a surface mining operation The hole is lined with clay or a synthetic lining to prevent leakage of waste into the surrounding water supply Waste is laid on the liner at the bottom of the landfill and a layer of topsoil is then compacted into the waste The layering is repeated again and again until the landfill reaches its full capacity; Pleasant term for a garbage dump which is located in a cavity in the ground so that, when full, it may be covered up and look like part of the land Today's landfills are sanitary and require special technology to eliminate methane gas and toxic leachate produced by the garbage; a disposal facility at which solid waste is placed on or in the land; A private or municipal site where non-hazardous solid or municipal waste is buried; Disposal facility at which solid waste is permanently placed in or on land as permitted by the jurisdictional health department and other appropriate agencies, accepting non-hazardous waste including non-recycled construction, remodeling, repair, and demolition debris; The disposal of solid waste at engineered facilities in a series of compacted layers on land and the daily covering of the waste with soil Fill areas are managed in such a way as to prevent nuisances or public health hazards; A facility in which solid waste from municipal or industrial sources is disposed; Method of storing wastes by burying or covering waste with earth; usually defined by EPA regulations; Generally, a land disposal area for waste (1) A sanitary landfill is a land disposal site for nonhazardous solid wastes in which the waste is spread in layers, compacted, and covered at the end of each day (2) Secure chemical landfills are disposal sites for hazardous waste They are chosen to minimize the release of hazardous substances into the environment No known technology exists, however, to prevent a landfill from leaking eventually; solid or liquid material disposed of by burial in the ground; Disposal of trash and waste products at controlled location that is sealed and buried under earth; (Water Quality) A disposal site which disposes of solid wastes on land Wastes are deposited and compacted At specific intervals, a layer of soil covers the waste and the process of deposit and compaction is repeated The purpose is to confine the wastes to the smallest practical area and volume without creating nuisances or hazards to public health and safety, for example through leaching into the groundwater below the waste site; A land disposal site for nonhazardous solid wastes; An area where trash is disposed, then buried beneath a layer of earth Landfills are usually equipped with a liner to reduce soil and water pollution from contaminating seepage, thus the term “sanitary landfill ”; A disposal facility where waste is placed in or on land; (1) The solid waste disposal process using land as the final disposal site (2) A fill area specifically for the purpose of creating additional dry land, usually accomplished by covering a wet or swampy area or slope face with sand or other suitable material; A method for final disposal of solid waste on land The refuse is spread and compacted and a cover of soil applied so that effects on the environment (including public health and safety) are minimised Under current regulations, landfills are required to have liners and leachate treatment systems to prevent contamination of ground water and surface waters An industrial landfill disposes of non-hazardous industrial wastes A municipal landfill disposes of domestic waste including garbage, paper, etc This waste may include toxins that are used in the home, such as insect sprays and powders, engine oil, paints, solvents, and weed killers; a method of disposing of refuse on land without creating nuisances or hazards to public health or safety using a fill area prepared with clay and/or synthetic liners, water drainage control, and monitoring systems; A landfill is an engineered area where waste is placed into the land Landfills usually have liner systems and other safeguards to prevent groundwater contamination
landfill gas: A by-product from the digestion of anaerobic bacteria of decaying matter in waste deposited in landfill sites The gas is predominantly methane(65%) together with carbon dioxide(35%) and trace concentrations of a range of vapours and gases
landfill gas: Methane gas formed by decomposition of materials in a landfill
landfill gas: Gas that is generated by decomposition of organic material at landfill disposal sites Landfill gas is approximately 50 percent methane
landfill gas: A combustible and potentially explosive mixture of methane and carbon dioxide, which is formed by anaerobic decomposition of garbage
landfill gas: Gas generated as a result of the decomposition processes on biodgradable materials deposited in a landfill It consists principally of methane and carbon dioxide, but includes minor amounts of other components
landfill gas: Gas generated by the natural degrading and decomposition of municipal solid waste by anaerobic microorganisms in sanitary landfills LFG is comprised of 50 to 60% methane, 40 to 50% carbon dioxide, and less than one percent hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and other trace gases The gases produced can be collected by a series of low-level pressure wells and can be processed into a medium Btu gas that can be burned to generate steam or electricity
sanitary landfill: Rehabilitated land in which garbage and trash have been buried; a landfill
landfills: third-person singular of landfill
landfills: Municipal solid waste dumps where garbage and soil are layered together, sometimes in a properly lined landfill (dump) with a methane gas capturing system When filled, decommissioned landfills are capped and sometimes landscaped
