The removal of di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) and di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) with dissolved organic matter (DOM) was studied in a laboratory scale anaerobic/anoxic/oxic reactor for landfill leachate treatment.

The optimization of leachate treatment was investigated as well as the configuration of a biological-ozonation process. The leachate used for the experiments was diluted to 1/5 with tap water and treated anaerobically. The anaerobic effluent and the raw leachate were treated with ozone in order to increase their biodegradability getting the minimum organic matter removal. Both were submitted to the ozonation process, applying a constant ozone dose and varying the contact time. The ozonation of raw leachate produced a decrease of COD and BOD5 concentrations as well as BOD5/COD ratios, applying an ozone dose of 38.72 mg/L·min and contact times between 15 and 60 minutes. Ozonation as a pre-treatment process to the biological system did not improve the biodegradability of the raw leachate. The anaerobic effluent from the reactor fed with leachate diluted to 1/5, was subjected to an ozone dose of 34.99 mg/L·min and applying different contact times. BODf values increased from 74.75 up to 1220 mg/L and BODf/COD ratios reached values higher than 1. Then, the application of ozone to the anaerobic effluent led to the improvement of the biodegradability of the leachate as well as the BODf/COD ratio for all the contact times used.

Fluorescence spectroscopy was performed to investigate the composition changes and characteristics of the leachate DOM (dissolved organic matter) during UV-TiO2photocatalytic treatment process. The results showed that fulvic-like, tryptophan-like and humic acids-like matters were the main compounds in leachate. During photocatalytic treatment process, fluorescence spectroscopy of DOM changed considerably. The final products were mainly fulvic-like and tryptophan-like matters. In general, the fluorescence signals of humic acids-like matters had the most significant change, which disappeared entirely after 60 h treatment, implying that humic acids-like matters can be degraded preferentially by photocatalysis. The other notable change was in VIS fulvic-like matters region, which suggested that fulvic-like matters can be significantly degraded. In 72 h photocatalytic effluent, VIS fulvic-like, tryptophan-like and tyrosine-like matters were remained, and the last two matters were the dominant fractions. These results indicated that fulvic-like and humic acids-like matters with macromolecular can be degraded into protein-like matters with micro-molecular by photocatalysis.
