The annual volume of Tokyo’s waste has signifi cantly increased since 1985, primarily due to changes in lifestyle and the social system of mass consumption and mass production. In 1989, the waste volume was at a record high of 4,900,000 tonnes. In the following years, the volume decreased, totaling 2,830,000 tonnes in 2012.

The waste is then laid down by bulldozers effi ciently and safely. Also, when the landfi ll is complete, a fi nal cover of soil is applied. Landfi ll Operation Covering Operation Cell Method Landfi ll Site Covered with Soil Each day’s garbage is covered with soil in one-day increments in order to prevent waste scattering and foul smells. Same-Day Soil Covering One-Day Garbage Cell Sandwich Method Landfi ll area covered with soil before laying down additional waste. Patrolling the Site 東京都環境局 In addition to managing Waste Covering landfill operations, workers patrol the site for About 3 m dangerous materials and About 50 cm to supervise insect pest control operations. They The Sandwich Method has the following merits. also handle any other (1) Prevents waste from scattering safety-related tasks. (2) Prevents the spread of off ensive odors (3) Prevents vermin (prevents incubation of insect eggs) (4) Prevents waste from burning (cuts off the air) Gas Well and Gas Gathering Lines Gas Drainage Landfi ll waste generates methane gas. To prevent fires from occurring, pipes are driven into the landfi ll to drain the gas. The gases that are emitted from the landfi ll site are collected, stored, and burned in gas turbines to produce electric power. 3 Wastewater Treatment Receiving Reservoir (Pump well) Buff er Reservoir Wastewater Treatment Plant The wastewater of the landfill site is After the wastewater quality is adjusted in Using various methods, the wastewater collected into a receiving reservoir located the buffer reservoir, the water is sent to the from the landfi ll undergoes purifi cation at the side of the peripheral road. wastewater treatment plant. at the treatment plant. Wastewater Treatment Flow The fi nal disposal management facility of the landfi ll site is cut off from the sea. If left on its own, the water from rainfall that gathers here would overfl ow. However, since the rainwater seeps through a stratum of waste to become polluted water, it is not fl ushed out to sea. Instead, following purifi cation at the waste- water treatment plant, the water is released into the sewage system.
