Landfill operations involve the systematic disposal of waste in designated areas, known as landfills. Waste is collected, transported, and then deposited in these sites, where it is compacted to maximize space. Layers of soil or other materials are often placed over the waste to minimize odors and prevent pests. To ensure safety and environmental protection, landfill operators monitor the site for potential issues, such as leachate and methane gas production. Regular maintenance and inspections are conducted to comply with regulations and to manage the impact on surrounding areas, ensuring that the landfill operates efficiently and responsibly.
