Landfills are not built then watched until they fill up. An engineered landfill is sized so that it fills up in an estimated period of time. Usually the interior is divided up into cells which are filled sequentially so the status of the estimate can be corrected.
Building against an estimated lifespan allows planning for the development of a new site to be done in an orderly fashion.
'Landfill' generally refers to a hole in the ground lined with plastic, and can be of any size.
It depends on when the last fill up for the tick was. If it was recent it wouldn't take to long hanging on but if it had Waited for a long time it would cling on longer to fill up as it would think it would have to wait that long again...
If you are inhaling, not long enough.
On average I've heard it can take up to 2000 years to dispose of itself.
Depends how big it is, and how your filling it!
20 years
An apple core can take anywhere from few weeks to a few months to decompose in a landfill, depending on the conditions such as moisture, temperature, and the presence of oxygen and microbes. Generally, organic materials like apple cores decompose faster compared to non-biodegradable items.
Depends on how big the landfill is. Larger cities will usually have larger landfills than smaller cities.
alot of trash end up into the landfill.......
Well to my consideration we should clean up the beach after storms or make sure our landfill won't fill up with garbage that could end up in the water or maybe take it simple recycle.
The amount of land that landfills take up can vary significantly depending on the size and capacity of the landfill. On average, a landfill can cover several acres of land, with some larger landfills covering hundreds of acres. As the landfill fills up with waste, the area required for storage will continue to grow.
It depends on the flow rate, the neck of the jar.
