The effects of moisture inputs on landfill gas production and composition and leachate characteristics at the Vancouver Lanclfill Site at Burns Bog

Infiltration of water into a landfill affects the process of waste decomposition. An analysis of variation in landfill gas production and composition (%CH4, %CO 2 ) in response to precipitation variations was carried out at the Vancouver Landfill Site at Bums Bog. Results indicate a direct relati…
