The Asia-Pacific Landfill Symposium (APLAS) is an international conference held every two years to discuss issues related to landfill management and waste management. This symposium plays a significant role in promoting sustainable solid waste management practices and landfill management in the Asia-Pacific region, where the demand for landfill space is rapidly increasing due to population growth and urbanization.

The symposium has been a major event in the region for over two decades since 2000, providing a platform for participants to explore the latest trends and technologies in landfill and waste management, discuss best practices, and share practical solutions to challenges faced. Previous symposiums have been held in various countries across the Asia-Pacific region, including Japan, China, South Korea, Indonesia, Vietnam, Hong Kong, and Thailand.

For APLAS 2024, MJARC-MJIIT-UTM has been awarded the honor of being the main organizer for the 12th Asia-Pacific Landfill Symposium 2024 (APLAS 2024), marking a milestone as Malaysia hosts the symposium for the first time. This testament to Malaysia’s commitment to advancing sustainable waste management initiatives underscores the nation’s growing prominence in the global sustainability landscape.

The objectives of the symposium extend beyond mere discourse; they are rooted in actionable outcomes aimed at fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange. Researchers, practitioners, policymakers, industry experts, lecturers, and postgraduate students from diverse backgrounds converge to share insights, experiences, and innovative solutions.
