Waste disposal sites cause environmental harm. Landfills emit harmful substances into the atmosphere, pollute natural waters and deteriorate the quality of the soil. With the development of waste disposal technologies, the issue of old burial sites remains unresolved. A promising solution to this problem is to obtain energy resources from landfill soil. Scientists of the Perm Polytech conducted field and laboratory studies and assessed the energy of the buried waste. The results will be useful for the development of technologies for the elimination of old landfills.
