Waste cells

Solid-wa.ste-filling plan. The specific method of filling will depend on the characteristics of the site, such as the amount of available cover material, the topography, and local hydrology and geology. To assess future development plans, it will be necessary to prepare a detailed plan for the layout of the individual solid-waste cells. On the basis of the characteristics of the site or the method of operation (e.g., gas recovery), it may be necessaiy to incorporate special features for the control of the movement of gases and leachate from the landfill. 

Some landfills practice leachate recycling in the fill area, where leachate percolates through the waste cell and undergoes further degradation. The treatment process or processes selected will depend to a large extent on the contaminants to be removed.4... 

The impact of settlement is a major concern in the design of the SWCR system. A number of facilities have settled 6 ft in a single year, and 40 ft or more over a period of years.5 The Meadowlands site in New Jersey, for example, was built at a height of 95 ft, settled to 40 ft, and then was rebuilt to 135 ft. Uniform settlement can actually be beneficial by compressing the length of the FMC and reducing tensile strains. However, if waste does not settle uniformly, it can be caused by interior berms that separate waste cells.

Precoating the filter medium prevents blinding of the medium with the product and will increase clarity. Filter aid must be an inert material, however, there are only a few cases where it cannot be used. For example, waste cells removed with filter aid cannot be reused as animal feed. Filter aid can be a significant cost, and therefore, optimization of the filtration process is necessary to minimize the addition of filter aid or precoat. Another possible detriment is that filter aid may also specifically absorb enzymes.
