Definitions

• biodegradable solid waste is sent to landfills;
• Biodegradable solid waste suspended in the effluent is treated in primary treatment plants See in Environmental Chemistry: Air and water pollution, Stocker / Seager, Chapter 13, Editorial Blume, Barcelona (1981), a description of water treatment systems residuals, mainly with unit operations of sedimentation and / or filtration and / or degreasing and / or flotation of suspended solids (DAF technique, Dissolved Air Flotat ⁇ on).

• Biodegradable liquid / solid waste dissolved in the effluent is generally treated by biological methods in the treatment plants of the companies that provide sewerage services, secondary treatment, using techniques such as percolating filters or activated sludge.
• landfills In landfills, deposited solids and sludges undergo anaerobic decomposition processes that generate gases such as methane, hydrogen sulfide and ammonia among the most abundant. At the same time, they produce leachates that are contaminated with heavy metals and pathogenic elements. Therefore the landfill management is complicated: it is not only necessary to dispose of the waste but also to make the leachate treatment and gas collection and burning systems work properly. In the social aspect, being anaerobic processes, bad odors are generated that cause populations to oppose the operation of sanitary landfills in their communities. In the economic aspect, the management of sanitary landfills is expensive not only during its operation but also after the end of the service, it takes about 30 years the time necessary for its closure ensuring that there is no emission of gases or leachate.
