Landfill Research Focus, Hardback Book

Landfill Research Focus Hardback

Edited by Ernest C Lehmann

Hardback

Description

A landfill is a site for the disposal of waste materials by burial.

Historically, landfills have been the most common methods of organised waste disposal and remain so in many places around the world.

Landfills may include internal waste disposal sites as well as sites used by many producers.

Many landfills are also used for other waste management purposes, such as the temporary storage, consolidation and transfer, or processing of waste material (sorting, treatment, or recycling).

A landfill also may refer to ground that has been filled in with soil and rocks instead of waste materials, so that it can be used for a specific purpose, such as for building houses.

Unless they are stabilised, these areas may experience severe shaking or liquefaction of the ground in a large earthquake.

This book presents new research in a field which is demanding and beginning to receive society's attention.
