Abstract

This chapter delves into the environmental pollution at the Al-Jarashi landfill, focusing on the impact of leachate leakage on groundwater, soil, and air quality. It examines the concentration rates of various pollutants, including heavy metals and gases like methane and carbon dioxide, and compares them with environmental standards. The study highlights the failure of the landfill to comply with regulations, leading to significant environmental damage. It proposes remediation strategies such as constructing concrete barriers, implementing proper waste burial methods, and using modern technologies to treat waste. Additionally, the chapter discusses sustainability strategies, including continuous monitoring of pollution levels, awareness workshops, and updating waste management laws. The study concludes with recommendations for establishing landfills in non-porous soil areas, intensifying monitoring operations, and investing in waste recycling projects. This comprehensive analysis provides valuable insights into the environmental impact of landfills and offers practical solutions for sustainable waste management.
