To overcome the weaknesses of traditional landfills, a modified aerobic landfill concept with intermediate covers of coarse material between waste layers functioning as facilities of drainage and aeration has been proposed recently. In this study, a one-dimensional coupled model, including aerobic biodegradation, oxygen diffusion, and advection, is proposed to describe oxygen distribution in this new type of landfill. Homotopy analysis method and perturbation method are applied to solve this model at passive aeration and active aeration, respectively. The model has six input variables, that is, oxygen diffusion coefficient, gas permeability, maximum oxygen consumption rate, layer thickness of waste, and injection pressure and extraction pressure. A combination of their typical values gives rise to over 700,000 scenarios which can be calculated by the proposed solution. The coupled effect of the above variables on oxygen migration is quantitatively investigated, followed by an estimation formula of the minimum oxygen concentration in waste layer. The maximum waste layer thickness is defined as a function of other variables for a given aeration target of oxygen volume concentration larger than 5%. A generalized design method of waste layer thickness, injection pressure, and extraction pressure is then developed for the newly proposed modified layered aerobic landfill, which can promote its popularization and application.
