Characteristics of decomposed waste in landfill

A thorough laboratory investigation is carried out to determine the characteristics of decomposed waste of municipal solid waste dumping site of Rajshahi City Corporation. Samples are collected from various depths by driving PVC pipe in different locations of the dumping site. A rigorous laboratory...
