Landfill practice in India: A review

Abstract

This paper highlight the landfill practices in India over the period 1987 - 2010 and provides details of the main sources of guidance on the safe control and use of landfill gas. Control measures include provision of proper cover over each site along with surface water drainage system and also vertical barriers (cut-offs), wherever necessary. Historically, there have been only a few projects in India but recently some new projects were sanctioned by the Indian government for getting rid of problems associated with MSW. Unfortunately, many of these disposal sites have not been properly engineered and monitored and the results have sometimes been tragic. However, remediation at older sites that have leaked toxic leachate into the soil and groundwater and gas leakage problems has proven to be tremendously costly. Mostly some choices are also in conjunction with landfills are recycling, incineration and especially composting is appreciated.
