Numerical simulation of landfill aeration using computational fluid dynamics

•Use of Computational Fluid Dynamics for the simulation of landfill aeration systems.•Results are in good agreement with previous investigations.•An oxygen-based zone of influence around a well is larger than a pressure-based.•A hybrid pressure aeration system is more effective than a constant press...
