- Abstract
Sanitary landfills are one of the main forms of final disposal of urban solid waste. Even so, its degraded residues generate by-products (gases) that are harmful to the Greenhouse Effect, the main one being methane (21 times more polluting than carbon dioxide), and can generate negative environmental impacts, such as soil and groundwater contamination and odor sunpleasant. To minimize these impacts, environmental protection systems are used in sanitary landfills, which are essential to minimize the negative environmental impacts of the final disposal of urban solid waste. the environment, knowing that this is the most appropriate solution in environmental terms, which cannot be compared with the benefits they are able to provide, in the final disposal of solid waste generated daily. The use of these systems is essential to ensure the protection of the environment and public health. This work is a bibliographical, qualitative research, containing renowned authors referring to the theme, from the year 1992. The biggest problem is the costs of implantation and maintenance of a Sanitary Landfill, which can be solved by building smxaller ones, as they will have less environmental impacts and will be easier to control.
