The sampling and analysis mentioned above has not yet completed, hence on the basis of
following assumptions and results from previous study the following results can be
predicated mentioned in this section. This site is being used by RNN for disposal of mixed
municipal solid waste from last 40 years; it is evident that due to microbial activities,
