Phytoremediation of landfill leachate
Waste Management, 2006Leachate emissions from landfill sites are of concern, primarily due to their toxic impact when released unchecked into the environment, and the potential for landfill sites to generate leachate for many hundreds of years following closure. Consequently, economically and environmentally sustainable disposal options are a priority in waste management ...

Treatment of landfill leachates by nanofiltration
Journal of Environmental Management, 2010Landfill leachate contains high concentrations of organic matter, color, heavy metals and toxic substances. This study presents the feasibility of a commercial nanofiltration membrane (NF-300) in the removal of pollutants from a landfill leachate generated from the Treatment Stabilization and Disposal Facility in Gujarat state of India.

Polyfluoroalkyl compounds in landfill leachates
Environmental Pollution, 2010Polyfluoroalkyl compounds (PFCs) are widely used in industry and consumer products. These products could end up finally in landfills where their leachates are a potential source for PFCs into the aqueous environment. In this study, samples of untreated and treated leachate from 22 landfill sites in Germany were analysed for 43 PFCs.

Treating landfill leachate by electrocoagulation
Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 2009The determination of the optimal conditions for using electrocoagulation as a treatment for landfill leachate was carried out using surface response methodology. A central composite design was applied to investigate the effect of four control factors, namely current density, pH, time and fluid conductivity, as well as the ...

Treatment of landfill leachates
Journal of Hazardous Materials, 1987Abstract Landfill leachate, which resembles concentrated mixed industrial waste water, threatens national groundwater supplies. Several processes drawn from industrial water treatment have been considered for renovating landfill leachate: biodegradation, chemical and thermal degradation, adsorption, reverse osmosis, and coagulation/precipitation ...

Membrane Technology, 2005
This feature looks at the use of membrane bioreactor technology for landfill leachate treatment. It also attempts to explain why landfill operators in the UK have not used the technology for leachate treatment.

Drugs in Municipal Landfills and Landfill Leachates
2004Drugs and drug metabolites are a new class of organic micropollutants which have been found in low concentrations (ng 1−1 to µg 1−1) in wastewater, ground and surface water (Hailing-Sorensen et al. 1997; Heberer 2002; Kummerer 2001; Sacher et al. 2002; Spengler et al. 2001). Recent monitoring studies indicate that in many cases the main route for human

Treatment of Landfill Leachate by Irrigation and Interaction with Landfill Gas
Environmental Technology, 2006The treatment efficiency of landfill leachate irrigation and the effect of landfill gas addition were investigated in a vegetated compost/gravel substrate by monitoring soil moisture content, drainage water volume and quality in a two years lysimeter experiment.

2020
One of the most important aspects that must be taken into consideration during the operation and management of landfills is their capacity to generate leachate and particular attention must be paid to the protection of surface and ground waters. Leachate is a complex organic liquid formed primarily by the percolation of precipitation water through the ...

Modelling flow to leachate wells in landfills
Waste Management, 2004Vertical wells are frequently used as a means of controlling leachate levels in landfills. They are often the only available dewatering option for both old landfills without any basal leachate collection layer and for newer sites where the installed drainage infrastructure has failed.
