Little is known regarding how bacterial communities assemble at landfill, as well as how the
environment shapes the composition of bacterial community. In this study, up to 42 refuse …

Little is known about the bacterial diversity of landfills and how environmental factors impact
the diversity. In this study, PCR-based 454 pyrosequencing was used to investigate the …

Landfill disposal has been considered as a very economically viable management practice
for municipal solid waste in mainland China. However, insufficient knowledge of the …

Landfill leachate usually harbors complex microbial communities responsible for the
decomposition of municipal solid waste. However, the diversity and metabolic functions of …

The municipal landfill is an example of human-made environment that harbours some
complex diversity of microorganism communities. To evaluate this complexity, the structures …

Landfills are the final repository for most of the discarded material from human society and
its “built environments.” Microorganisms subsequently degrade this discarded material in the …

The impact of contaminated leachate on groundwater from landfills is well known, but the
specific effects on bacterial consortia are less well-studied. Bacterial communities in a …

Municipal landfills are hot spots of dynamic bioprocesses facilitated by complex interactions
of a multifaceted microbiome, whose functioning in municipal landfills at different maturing …

Refuse decomposition in landfills is a microbially mediated process that occurs primarily
under anaerobic conditions. Because of limited moisture conditions, hydraulic transport as a …

Microorganisms are responsible for degrading the raw leachate generated in sanitary
landfills, extracting the soluble fraction of the landfill waste and biotransforming organic …
