The developing and under developing countries hazardous industrial waste is also mixed with municipal solid waste (MSW). The dumping of MSW in uncontrolled landfills can cause major impact on human health and surrounding environment. Leachate is the main culprit, causing pollution of surface water bodies and ground water. Ground water once contaminated,

Practical waste and flow parameter values were determined to predict accurate leachate breakthrough times and flow rates for landfill leachate. The experimental design, measurement and analytical procedures of a 22 factorial experiment with a total of eight cells are developed to validate channeled flow and characterize flow patterns, measure key waste

Analysis of leachate pollution index and formulation of sub-leachate pollution indices
Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 2005An index known as leachate pollution index (LPI) for quantifying the leachate contamination potential of municipal landfills had been developed and reported by the authors. It is a quantitative tool by which the leachate pollution data of landfill sites can be reported uniformly.

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

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 ...

Multiple Views of a Leachate Plume
Symposium on the Application of Geophysics to Engineering and Environmental Problems 1997, 1997Resistivity, VLF, and radar were used to image a leachate plume emanating from a landfill in northern Michigan. The resistivity arrays were dipole-monopole and mise-a-la-masse. VLF data were enhanced and interpreted using linear filters to convert the data to subsurface electric current densities and to apparent resistivities.

Co-digestion of intermediate landfill leachate and sewage sludge as a method of leachate utilization
Bioresource Technology, 2011This study examines the co-digestion of intermediate landfill leachate and sewage sludge from a municipal wastewater treatment plant. Application of leachate as a co-fermentation component increased the concentrations of soluble organic compounds (expressed as total organic carbon), ammonium nitrogen, and alkalinity in the digester influents.

Landfilling is one of the most important methods for disposal of solid waste in many countries. One of the most obvious problems associated with the landfilling practice is the generation of leachate. This chapter reviews case studies on the on-site treatment of leachates using various technologies in selected European and Asian countries. It was shown
