The introduction of rare earth elements (REEs) and precious metals (PMs) containing wastes in aged landfills leads to a significant pollutant and resource potential. Against this backdrop, the accumulation of REEs and PMs in soil-like-fractions (SLF)...
In some areas, there is a phenomenon that the landfill is full or even over-capacity with the extension of the service period. With the aging and damage of the protective facilities, this phenomenon may have a more serious impact on the surrounding e...
Landfills rank third among the anthropogenic sources of methane gas in the atmosphere, hence there is a need for greater emphasis on the quantification of landfill methane emission for mitigating environmental degradation. However, the estimation and...
Municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills significantly contribute to global methane gas production, underscoring the critical need for accurate emission gas estimation within an effective gas management strategy. While first-order models such as LandGEM...
The Landfill plays an important role in urban development and waste disposal. However, landfill leachate may also bring more serious pollution and health risks to the surrounding groundwater environment. Compared with other areas, the area around the...
