    Understanding flow of carbon and nitrogen in Malaysian sanitary landfill
    (Faculty of Science, Universiti Malaya, 2013) Venu Mahendra MS.; Mohd Afzanizam M.; Agamuthu P.
    Landfill can be an artificial carbon sink; accumulates and stores carbon-containing chemical compound for an indefinite period. Landfill posed risks of undesired environmental impacts due to the generation of leachate and gases namely carbon dioxide, CO2 and methane, CH4 with trace amounts of nonmethane organic compounds (NMOC) that include air pollutants and volatile organic compounds. Elements were selected based on environmental matrix and importance as raw materials with definite negative effects.
