Landfill Capping
Bioreactor
Recirculation of leachate back into filled cells is an essential step in a bioreactor
landfill
Microbial activities are intentionally enhanced.
The recirculation of leachate provide moisture and/or oxygen to stimulate the
microbial degradation of solid wastes and simultaneously reduce the amount of
leachate needed for treatment.
Landfill Surcharging
The surcharging of a landfill involves the placement of a large amount of weight
on top of the landfill for 6-12 months.
The added weight to the top of the landfill causes enhanced settlement of the
waste and increased capacity, which is recognized after the surcharge material
is taken away.
Clean soil is usually used as the surcharge material, which may be used
elsewhere in the landfill after the surcharging process is completed
Brownfield redevelopment
It remediates and preserves existing contaminated sites, like old landfills, for use in
the future by recreation of land
Brownfield redevelopment provides economic development by establishing new
areas for businesses and industry Brownfield redevelopment not only provides
economic advantages but also brings communities together
However, the redevelopment of landfills is a challenge due to a variety of
contaminants involved and the geological issues of building above a landfill
The issues associated with landfill redevelopment projects include: the size of the
landfill, contaminants types, the size and depth of plume, type and depth of waste
