A landfill is essentially a contained repository for wastes. It is. by desig.n isolated from groundwater to minimize te release of toxics. Systems are also prevent ot minimize infiltration of rainwater or other surface water to minimize leachate which will require collection and treatment. Some lanffills create methane from the decomposition of waste under anaerobic conditions. This is gathered and burnt or used as a fuel to reduce the impact on greenhouse gas emissions.
Ultimately many landfills are covered with topsoil and grass or trees to become green space or playgrounds.
