Impacts of Landfill Leachate on the Surrounding Environment: A Case Study on Amin Bazar Landfill, Dhaka (Bangladesh)

Soil Systems, 2022
Currently, a total of about 15,000 tons/day of waste is generated in the entire Dhaka city with an average per capita waste generation of 0.641 kg/day. Only 37% of this waste is collected and dumped into the two sanitary landfill sites, which is the only

P-resonant control for the neutral point of three phase inverter [PDF]

, 2014
In this project, a Proportional resonant (PR) current controller is proposed to maintain a balanced neutral point for a three-phase four wire inverter, which can be used in microgrid applications. The neutral-point circuit consists of a conventional

Diversity, transfer potential, and transcriptional activity of virus‐carried antibiotic resistance genes in global estuaries

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Estuaries are vital hotspots for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) due to substantial antibiotic pollution. Although viruses have been proposed as key reservoirs and important disseminators of ARGs in environments, their contribution to the estuarine antibiotic resistome remains largely unknown.

Resistome flow in global landfill systems

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Global landfill systems represent key hubs of resistome, serving as dynamic reservoirs and amplifiers through plasmid‐driven gene mobility. Waste flows and environmental pathways sustain the transboundary resistome networks, accelerating resistance dissemination across ecosystems.

Treatment of landfill leachate by using electron beam technology

Gongye shui chuli
The raw liquid and the bio-treatment（MBR） effluent of landfill leachate were irradiated using electron beam（EB） technology. The effect of EB irradiation on the molecular weight，organic composition of pollutants in the landfill leachate，as well as the ...

Variability of Parameters Involved in Leachate Pollution Index and Determination of LPI from Four Landfills in Malaysia

International Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2010
Landfill sites are potential sources of human and environmental hazards. Leachate produced form these waste dumping sites is heterogeneous and exhibits huge temporal and seasonal variations.

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

Polymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Outline of a Washing Treatment to Improve Electric Arc Furnace Slag Environmental Behavior

steel research international, EarlyView.
This study evaluates a water‐washing treatment for electric arc furnace slag to reduce the leaching of hazardous elements (Cr, Ba, Mo, and V), enabling its reuse. The process effectively decreases leachate concentrations. Using the treated slag as a substitute aggregate in concrete reduces greenhouse gases emissions by 42.5% compared to landfilling ...

Corrosion characteristics of concrete by landfill leachates of different ages

Case Studies in Construction Materials
Landfill leachate is a highly corrosive pollutant, and the composition of landfill leachate varies greatly between landfill ages. Landfill leachates of different ages pose a corrosive danger to concrete structures.
