• Abstract:

  Groundwater Is A Critical Source Of Drinking Water Worldwide, But It Is Increasingly Threatened By Contamination From Landfill Sites. Landfills Generate Leachate—a Toxic Liquid Formed By The Percolation Of Water Through Waste—which Can Infiltrate Aquifers And Degrade Groundwater Quality. This Paper Reviews The Sources, Mechanisms, Assessment Methods, And Impacts Of Groundwater Contamination Near Landfills. It Also Discusses Monitoring Techniques And Mitigation Strategies. Studies Show That Contamination Is Most Severe Within 200–1000 M Of Landfill Sites And Includes Heavy Metals, Organic Pollutants, And Microbial Contaminants. Effective Landfill Management And Monitoring Systems Are Essential To Protect Groundwater Resources.
