depozit (ecologic) de deşeuri landfill Explanation: Termenul de "landfill" se referă şi la metoda de depozitare, şi la locul în sine: 1. A method of solid waste disposal in which refuse is buried between layers of dirt so as to fill in or reclaim low-lying ground. 2. A site used for or reclaimed by such disposal. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/landfill |

landfill with a waste management infrastructure Explanation: What is a Sanitary Landfill Site? A sanitary landfill site is a waste disposal facility where waste is deposited into the ground and covered. All sanitary landfill sites in Ontario are regulated and monitored by the Ministry of the Environment. http://www.region.peel.on.ca/pw/waste/facilities/caledon-lan... nu e sanitary landfill UITE SI ASTA http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landfill Types & construction methods Most modern landfills are classified according to the type(s) of waste material disposed of into them. Landfills can be engineered to a high standard in order to contain liquid leachate or landfill gas produced by decomposing organic waste. Modern landfills generally require a minimum of one landfill liner, consisting of a layer of compacted clay with a minimum required thickness and a maximum allowable hydraulic conductivity. Others also require the addition of one or more layers of impermeable membrane, such as high-density polyethylene (HDPE) together with geotextile. Various final cover systems are used to 'cap' landfills (such as clay or topsoil), depending on the type of wastes present within the landfill. Landfills, based on the waste type that is disposed within them, may be classified as: Hazardous waste landfill: waste disposal units constructed to specific design criteria and which receive wastes meeting the local definition of hazardous waste. These landfills are generally constructed to be secure repositories for material that presents a serious hazard to human health, such as high-level radioactive waste. They are restricted, by permit or law, to the types of waste that they may handle (chemical vs. radioactive, liquid vs. dry). Double liner systems are the norm for hazardous waste landfills. Deep geological repository of high level radioactive waste is not generally classified as landfilling. Sanitary landfills: also called modern, engineered or secure landfills, these usually have physical barriers such as liners and leachate collection systems, and procedures to protect the public from exposure to the disposed wastes. The term sanitary landfill normally refers to those where municipal solid waste is disposed of, as well as other wastes high in organic material. In some countries, all landfills are sanitary landfills. Inert waste landfill: waste disposal units that receive wastes which are chemically and physically stable and do not undergo decomposition, such as sand, bricks, concrete or gravel. Dumps: also simply called landfills, dumps are landfills that are not engineered with the special protective measures required by sanitary landfills. They are most common in rural, remote, and developing areas. Many jurisdictions prohibit the use of non-sanitary landfills for the disposal of municipal solid waste. Other jurisdictions that do allow dumps may require them to be constructed according to some engineering standard to mitigate the risk for environmental contamination, such as by limiting the slope, requiring compaction, or ensuring that the cell is high enough above the groundwater table. daca prelucreaza gunoiul on-site nu vad cum poti sa-i spui altfel |
