design and construction of full scale landfill bioreactors and modelling of biodegradation processes for numerical simulation. Currently‚ landfills require specific liners at the bottom to capture leachate and impermeable caps at the top to limit infiltration. As a result‚ landfills are considered "dry tombs‚" (i.e.‚ anaerobic and dry)‚ with relatively slow biodegradation rates of the organic fraction of the waste and significant production of methane.
