In this study, aerobic-anaerobic landfill method (AANM) is focused on as a new way to speed up landfill stabilization, inhibit landfill gas flux, and ameliorate on leachate quality. Numerical simulation model is developed to guide the air injection craftwork and study its effect on achieving above goals. On basis of work finished in last period (0~310 days), air was injected into Lysimeters A (Lys.A) at 0.5 m, and at 2.5 m in Lys.B with the same rate of 1 L/min. In Lys.C there is no air injected. In order to interview the influence by air injection manners changing, from 310 days till 360 days, air injection manners are changed from Mono-site into Double-site in Lys.A and in Lys. B it will be changed from bottom-site (2.5m) into middle-site (1.5m). In Lys.C there will be no changing. By interviewing the comparisons on simulated results in 50 days with and without air injection manners changing, it was found that air injection manners changing in Lys.A causes TOC discharging amount increase more than 6 times, but T-N and GHE resulted from landfill gas decrease 24.1% and 71 % respectively. Air injection manners changing in Lys.B resulted in discharged TOC and T-N increase 108.1 % and 53.5 % respectively, while T-N decreases 3.7 %. On basis of mechanism assumption, mathematical model was developed and according to the simulated results for 5 years, air injected at 2.5 m achieved improvements on stabilization of solid phase organic carbon and nitrogen for 34 % and 13 %, amelioration on leachate quality for 35 % and 62 % of TOC and T-N, and the restraint of GHE for 14 times compared with no air injection case.
