Municipal solid waste can have serious and protracted negative effects on soil and groundwater. In addition to harming ecosystems, the effects of MSW on soil and groundwater can also cause biodiversity loss and habitat degradation. MSW is managed using a variety of techniques, such as composting, landfilling, and incineration. Implementing policies and strategies that take into account the entire waste management lifecycle. From the generation of waste to its disposal is necessary for the effective management of MSW. This strategy should incorporate waste minimization, recycling, and reuse in addition to the correct disposal of any leftover waste. Paper highlights the contamination of soil and groundwater in a selected MSW dumpsite located at Daruthenga dumpyard in Bhuasuni, Bhubaneswar, Odisha. Samples were collected from three different locations of the dumpyard and the distance between one sample location to another was 25 m, to compare soil and groundwater samples in different locations. Contamination of soil and groundwater in different locations of the dumpyard was identified. Migration pattern was also found in different locations. Leachate analysis of soil at different locations will be identified as fast it penetrates under the soil at different locations. Physio-chemical parameters and prominent Geotechnical Parameters were found. This attributes the impact on the soil and groundwater and its hazardous impacts on human and animal’ health. It will also help to identify the type of contaminants accordingly proper disposal of MSW and recommending a designed landfill to protect the environment and improve its societal impact.
