Spatial and temporal variability of hydrological behaviour and leachate composition in a landfill stabilized by in-situ aeration: An experimental and numerical study on the cause and mitigation of reduced aeration efficiency

"Landfills form the final stage in waste processing and are sources of multiple environmentally harmful emissions. Due to the biodegradation of organic material, methane, a strong greenhouse gas, is released into the air and soluble pollutants, like ammonium or heavy metals, are flushed out of the landfill waste. In modern landfills, the waste...
