Sanitary Landfill Leachate

Sanitary landfill leachate (LL) composition varies according to climate variables variation, solid waste characteristics and composition, and landfill age. Leachate treatment is essentially carried out trough biological and physicochemical processes, which have showed variability in efficiency and appear a costly solution for the management authorities. Electrocoagulation (EC) seems a suitable solution for leachate treatment taking into account the characteristics of the liquor. One of the problems of EC is the electrode passivation, which affects the longevity of the process. One solution to this problem could be the replacement of the electrode by one made of recyclable material, which would make it possible to change it frequently and at a lower cost. The objective of the present work was to evaluate the removal of heavy metals (As, Ba, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Pb, Mn, Ni, Se and Zn) and coliforms from a LL by EC using electrodes made from steel swarf (SfE) up to 8 h. Removal efficiencies of detected heavy metals were 51%(Cr), 59%(As), 71%(Cd), 72%(Zn), 92%(Ba), 95%(Ni) and >99%(Pb). The microbial load of coliforms in leachate was reduced from 10.76 × 104 CFU/mL (raw leachate) to less than 1 CFU/mL (after treatment with SfE) (i.e., approximately 100% reduction). The use of SfE in EC of LL is very effective in removing heavy metals and coliforms and can be used as alternative treatment solution for such effluents.

High Concentrations

Sanitary landfilling is the most acceptable method to eliminate solid urban wastes. However, it is known that sanitary landfill generates large amount of heavily polluted leachate. High concentrations of recalcitrant organics make its degradation more complicated and high concentration of organic material can be toxic and reduce bioremediation process. Landfill leachate treatment by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been intensively studied with high successful rate for removing refractory pollutants (biological degradation) from leachate. Fenton reaction which is one basic AOPs is based on the addition of hydrogen peroxide to the leachate in the presence of ferrous salt as a catalyst. Because of that, many improvement and development of new Fenton-based methods have been reported in the literature. This review discussed the application of Fenton and related processes in terms of wide application in landfill leachate treatment. The effects of various operating parameters and their optimum ranges for organics contaminant removed were also discussed.

Sanitary landfill is the most common way to eliminate solid waste. However, sanitary landfill generates large quantity of leachate. Leachate can be defined as a liquid that passes through a landfill and extracted dissolved and suspended matter. The presence of large quantity of contaminants in leachate is harmful to human and ecological environment. This can lead to health issues, including gastrointestinal illness, reproductive problems, and neurological disorders. There are several significant techniques have been made to overcome the problem of leachate pollution, including photocatalytic oxidation, adsorption/separation processing and bioremediation. However, the applications have been restricted by many factors, such as processing efficiency, operational method, energy requirements, and economic benefit. This present article provides an overview of research studies and advances concerned with the development of nanoparticles and their potential applications in leachate treatment. Nanoparticles can act as antimicrobial and function as reducing agent and catalyst in detoxification of pollutants in the environment, such as organic, inorganic and heavy metals. NPs have been suggested as efficient, cost-effective and environmental friendly alternative to existing treatment materials and presents a number of potential environmental benefits.

ABSTRACTMulti-year, simulated remote-handled transuranic waste (RH TRU, nonradioactive) experiments are being conducted underground in the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) facility. These experiments involve the near-reference (thermal and geometrical) testing of eight full-size RH TRU test containers emplaced into horizontal, unlined rock salt boreholes. Half of the test emplacements are partially filled with bentonite/silica-sand backfill material. All test containers were electrically heated at about 115 W/each for three years, then raised to about 300 W/each for the remaining time. Each test borehole was instrumented with a selection of remote-reading thermocouples, pressure gages, borehole vertical-closure gages, and vertical and horizontal borehole-diameter closure gages. Each test emplacements was also periodically opened for visual inspections of brine intrusions and any interactions with waste package materials, materials sampling, manual closure measurements, and observations of borehole changes. Effects of heat on borehole closure rates and near-field materials (metals, backfill, rock salt, and intruding brine) interactions were closely monitored as a function of time. This paper summarizes results for the first five years of in situ test operation with supporting instrumentation and laboratory data and interpretations. Some details of RH TRU waste package materials, designs, and assorted underground test observations are also discussed. Based on the results, the tested RH TRU waste packages, materials, and emplacement geometry in unlined salt boreholes appear to be quite adequate for initial WIPP repository-phase operations.
