SANITARY LANDFILL (SWM)

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
Topic: SANITARY LANDFILL
Location: Jeram Sanitary Lanfill, Selangor

Sanitary landfills are sites where waste is isolated from the environment until it is safe. It is considered when it has completely degraded biologically, chemically and physically.The immediate goal is to meet, to the best extent possible, the four stated basic sanitary landfill conditions, with a longer term goal to meet them eventually in full. There are financial and other benefits to sites with long operating lifetimes (ten years or more). Large regional sites serving two or more cities could be economically beneficial, providing waste transport costs are not too high. Malaysian citizen now is about 23 million people. Solid waste that produce are rapidly increasing in such amount that it will reach the optimum.So, the issue now is that WHY MALAYSIAN PEOPLE DOESN'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE WASTE THAT THEY PRODUCE?

See the picture below how Malaysian people produced waste. Plastics, food waste, bottles,aluminium, tins, cans, paper, cardboard and etc is all dump in the landfill.picture show how the WORLDWIDE holding handle the sanitary landfill from the municipal waste until the leachate treatment plant to be discharge as clear water.
