Landfill Fire Control

Landfill Fire Control is a systematic methodology within waste management engineering that comprises strategies, technologies, and protocols designed to prevent, mitigate, and extinguish uncontrolled combustion within solid waste disposal sites, thereby distinguishing it from general fire safety measures through its specific adaptation to the biogeochemical and operational conditions of sanitary landfills.
