Scientific ReportsLandfill leachate forms when waste-inherent water and percolated rainfall transfer are highly toxic, corrosive, acidic, and full of environmental pollutants. The release of leachate from municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill sites poses a severe hazard to

Landfill leachate is a complex mix of organics, inorganics and heavy metals produced from the conventional and engineering landfilling practices. The adverse effects of landfill leachate on the human and environmental health have forced the relevant authorities to stipulate stringent disposal requirements, producing the requirement for ground-breaking ...

Treatment of landfill leachate by the Fenton process
Water Research, 2006In recent years, studies of leachate treatment by conventional Fenton, photo-Fenton and electro-Fenton processes have indicated that these methods can effectively reduce concentrations of organic contaminants and color. In addition, the process can increase the biodegradable fraction of organic constituents in leachate, particularly in mature or ...

Sustainable landfill leachate treatment
Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 2020Landfilling 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 m 3 day -1

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.
