Hello Arsh

Hope that you are doing well

Landfilling is an important method in waste disposal.

Landfills are area of land that are engineered to allow for the deposition of waste onto and into it to concentrate the waste in compacted layers and reduce the volume and then it is monitored for the control of liquid and gaseous effluent in order to protect the environment and human health.

Landfills are used for ther uses as well . For example,   municipal solid waste, faecal sludge can also be discharged into landfills , so landfill serves as important method in waste disposal


I hope that it helps you

Thankyou
