Refuse is a stockpile meant to designate where certain junk can be placed. A typical refuse pile will hold bones, shells, certain corpses, and any totally worn out items like clothing.
Certain pieces of junk (corpses, chunks) will rot, and emit miasma as any other rotten item stored inside. It is important to know where you want to place your refuse stockpile beforehand, as miasma is a health hazard for your dwarves. Designating a refuse pile outside your fortress is good, as miasma will not develop in the open. If you want a pile inside your fortress, use a small passageway with two doors instead of one, as it will contain almost all of your miasma inside. Alternatively, you can dig a huge, open pit down to the z-axis level most convenient for you. As long as there is no ceiling, it will be considered open area.
