The final disposal of solid waste is today one of the most important problems affecting the Latin American region in environmental terms. The most suitable for final disposal is landfill.
This paper provides basic information about the generation, gas composition and product management of final disposal of solid waste in landfills and options for its use after harvest. Proceeds from the biodegradation of waste in these landfills are leachate and gases, the latter called biogas.
