TLDR
In this article, a quantitative model for estimating the gasification rate by different landfill types was proposed, based on measurement data for a long-term material balance for an aerobic landfill and an anaerobic landfill, obtained with two types of large-scale lysimeters.About:

Leachate characterization in semi-aerobic and anaerobic sanitary landfills: a comparative study.
TL;DR: The results indicated that Pulau Burung leachate was more stabilized compared with Kulim leachates, and the aeration process in PBLS has a considerable effect on reducing the concentration of several pollutants.

Sustainable Practices for Landfill Design and Operation
TL;DR: The management of municipal solid waste (MSW) in many countries throughout the world has changed significantly over the past 50 years, with a shift from uncontrolled dumping or burning to complex systems that integrate multiple processes to recover materials or energy and provide containment to reduce environmental impacts as discussed by the authors.

The effect of various environmental and design parameters on methane oxidation in a model biofilter.
TL;DR: This study was conducted to investigate the performance of a lab-scale model biofilter system using soil as the filter-bed medium in packed columns to measure the effect of a variety of environmental and design factors on the CH4 oxidation capacity of a soil biofilter.
Assessment of various tropical municipal landfill leachate characteristics and treatment opportunities
TL;DR: In this paper, the characteristics of different landfill leachate samples collected from three tropical landfill sites were examined for 27 parameters and compared with the Malaysia Standards in terms of phenols, zeta potential, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand demand (BOD5), heavy metals, nitrogen compounds, salinity, electrical conductivity etc.

Methods for determining the methane generation potential and methane generation rate constant for the FOD model: a review.
TL;DR: The aim of this paper is to review the literature on the available determining methods and the ranges for L0 and k values of both bulk MSW and individual waste components, while focusing on understanding the decomposition of waste, including the role of lignin.
