Leachate:
Precipitated water reacts with landfill waste physically, chemically and
biologically to produce leachate.
Consists of organic and inorganic substances in dissolved or suspended form.
Causes subsurface and ground water contamination.
It physical appearance is black or yellow or orange colour, bad odour, acidic
and offensive.
Its composition may vary depending on degree of compaction, climate and
moisture content in waste.
Detection of Polluted zones:
The methods to detect and identify the lateral and vertical extent of subsurface
contamination are
surface water and ground water in Borg El Arab site in Cairo, Egypt.
The objective of this study is to utilize a natural low cost material as an accelerator
The samples of leachate is collected from the site for the analysis.
Chemical and Biological treatments are required for the leachate sample.
Properties of leachate and solid waste from Borg El Arab site:
Chemical properties of Leachate (Raghab et al. 2013) Composition of MSW (Raghab et al. 2013)
are removed.
90 mg/lt
BOD removal efficiency (Raghab et al. 2013) TDS effluent removal (Raghab et al. 2013)
Conclusions:
Turbidity, conductivity, BOD and COD removal
efficiencies with optimum dosage of Alum
respectively are
Using Alum- 82.5%, 80.5%, 82.5% and 82.5%
Using Perlite- 87.4%, 86.7%, 89.9% and 92.8%
Using Bentonite- 85.0%, 83.5%, 86.5%, and 96.5% COD effluent removal efficiency
(Raghab et al. 2013)
Perlite and Bentonite gave the worst removal
performance for TDS.
Case study -2:
Combined Electro-Fenton oxidation and
Sequencing Batch Reactor
The rapid increases in both the municipal and industrial solid waste
generations in Taiwan, the rate of per capita municipal solid waste
(MSW) generation was increased from 0.67 to 1.1 kg/person/day
representing an annual increase of 7.1%. Of the daily MSW production in
Taiwan, only 5% were incinerated and the rest was landfilled.
Treatment of Landfill Leachate:
The chemical and biological treatment of leachate involves
Chemical Coagulation.
