Solid waste disposal facilities are sources of significant negative impact on the environment. In this paper, waste disposal facilities (landfills, dumps, sludge and manure storage facilities, etc.) are considered as open geo-ecological systems that constantly interact with the environment through the flows of substances and energies. Factors that increase the negative impact of landfills are waste fires, as well as accumulation of explosive gases, especially methane. Due to the fact that a municipal solid waste landfill is a source of increased environmental and fire hazards, the purpose of this paper which is to study specific features of the estimation-based monitoring of a solid waste landfill during its operation, is of vital importance. Methodologically, the study is based on the application of modern information technologies, software systems of simulation modeling. In the framework of this study, the features of the estimation-based monitoring of waste disposal facilities through the example of municipal solid waste landfill "Chaplygino" in the Kursk region are studied. The paper presents the results of the risk assessment for the case of methane explosion at the MSW landfill "Chaplygino"; the prediction and assessment of the situation in case of a fire breaking-out at the landfill with subsequent transition to a forest fire. Modeling the development of various emergency situations (explosions and fires) at waste disposal facilities provides timely identification of areas with individual risk indicators exceeding permissible values, planning preventive measures for the effective protection of the territories of the Russian Federation, and also allows formulating methodological recommendations aimed at reducing environmental and fire hazards of waste disposal facilities.
