MODERN LANDFILLS
Today’s landfills are sophisticated, engineered structures that help us secure environmental safety and sustainability.
ENGINEERING THE MODERN LANDFILL
At Waste Management, we're committed to doing the right thing, the right way. This includes our landfill sites, where we implement processes and technologies that ensure environmental safety and sustainability goals are met. At some landfills, landfill gas is even harnessed for conversion to renewable energy.
The modern landfill begins with a careful evaluation and preparation of the landfill base to assure the stability of the engineered landfill above.
