Sustainable landfill leachate treatment

Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 2020
Landfilling is one of the most widely used forms of solid waste disposal, yet the management of landfill leachate is challenging because of the complex composition and high contaminant concentration. This study provides an on-site treatment system to treat 500 m3 day-1 of the leachate generated from the Perdido Landfill in Escambia County, Florida ...

Phytoremediation of landfill leachate

Waste Management, 2006
Leachate 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 ...

Polyfluoroalkyl compounds in landfill leachates

Environmental Pollution, 2010
Polyfluoroalkyl 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, 2009
The 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 interaction among (between ...

Landfill leachate treatment

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.

Treatment of landfill leachates

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 1987
Abstract 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 ...

Landfill Leachate Treatment

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 ...

Municipal landfill Leachate management

Environmental Progress, 1998
AbstractFrom 1995 to 1997, the Montgomery County Leachate Pretreatment Facility (MCLPF) has successfully pretreated in excess of 18,000,000 gallons of leachate generated by the county's municipal solid waste landfill. The collection system directs leachate from the original landfill, the new lined section, and the ash cell to the leachate pump station.
