1. Introduction

The book proposes an optimal scheme for full-life-cycle solid waste management that addresses the critical technological bottlenecks, and introduces a new technical model that reflects the synergies of resource utilization and secondary pollution control. A set of technical methods has been set out for scientific and reasonable on-site investigation, risk assessment, management and control, to minimize the risk of groundwater contamination by solid waste at landfill site. This book will provide useful guidance on optimal management of solid waste and risk assessment and management of groundwater pollution at landfill site for government managers, environmental researchers, and people involved in and concerned about solid waste disposal.
