This paper revealed aspects that influenced leachate characteristics in leachate treatment plants located in Temesi landfill. Four aspects observed refers to Law Number 3/2013 Ministry of Public Works: landfill operation; rainfalls; treatment plant designs; operation and maintenance. Data collected by observation and field survey to identify leachate characteristics. Leachates were collected by grab sampling from inlet through outlet of the treatment plants, to be laboratory analysed to meet the standards set by Ministry of Environmental and Forestry Number 59/2016 and compared to the standards. Leachate discharge calculated using Thornthwaite method to be compared to criteria designed. The result shown that leachate discharge is 0.45 L/sec exceeding the designed discharge 0.42 L/sec. Laboratory test result from leachate sampling shown that the BOD, COD and TSS value exceeding the regulation standard in range of > 2000 mg/L. Findings revealed that the depth of maturation ponds is 2.9 meters exceeded the designed criteria. It is found that the landfill operated with open dumping system and the treatment lagoons has never been regularly drained and recirculate. Those practices increase the leachate volume and degenerate the treatment functions. It can be concluded that the 4 aspects mentioned significantly influenced the leachate characteristics.

Wastewater treatment plant is a potential reservoir contributing to the evolution and spread of heavy metal and antibiotic resistant bacteria. The pollutants such as biocides, antibiotics, heavy metals are to be feared for as they have been known to evoke resistance in microorganisms in such polluted environment. The aim of this study was to the isolate bacteria from the treated wastewater and assess the resistance pattern of the isolates against antibiotics and heavy metals. Grab sampling was performed from April to June 2017, from the treated effluent from the secondary treatment plant. To assess the resistance pattern for antibiotic(s) and heavy metal(s), antibiotic susceptibility test and minimum inhibitory concentration by cup well method were performed respectively. Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Citrobacter freundii, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes, Proteus mirabilis, P. vulgaris, Salmonella Typhi, Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated. Multi drug and heavy metal resistant isolates were screened. Fisher’s exact test revealed that there is a significant association (p< 0.001) between antibiotic resistance pattern and resistance patterns at dilution of 2500 g/L (25%). Cramer’s V test revealed that the effect size of antibiotic resistance pattern and heavy metal resistance pattern at dilution 2500 g/L is medium. P. aeruginosa was able to resist the metal concentration up to 10000 g/L (100%) dilution of Fe++. Heavy metal resistant bacteria can be safely used to lower chemical concentration in the environment once their harmful genes are edited, knocked etc. so that risks of evoking antibiotic resistance could be minimized.

The Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) has the duty and responsibility to carry out effective and efficient river operation activities and river infrastructure including overcoming floods during the rainy season, but these activities are deemed necessary for improvement in planning procedures. To realize this goal, it is necessary to manage risks that can reduce river performance and river infrastructure as flood control. With risk management in this activity, it is possible to apply the sequence of risks that occur which are then used as recommendations for action (risk response) and risk-based development strategies to improve river performance and river infrastructure to control floods through operation and maintenance activities to build a functional and sustainable system. Suitable for long-term planning and short-term maintenance needs.

The leachate treatment plant of the landfill in Mechernich including biological pretreatment, reverse osmosis and evaporation and drying of the concentrate has been in operation since the beginning of 1994. Originally the plant was designed for a capacity of 130 m3/d. In the future, an average leachate amount of ca. 280 m3/d and even considerably higher montly peaks must be assumed. The necessary enlargement of the biological pretreatment will be realized by a second biological contactor plant. Corresponding to the operation of the existing plant a large amount of the ammonium can be eliminated under aerobic conditions by deammonification so no enlargement of the denitrification stage is needed. by simply replacing the reverse osmosis membranes by nanofiltration membranes, an operational capacity of ca. 280 m3/d may easily be achieved at the existing physical post-treatment stage. With the aid of this enlargement conception, the relatively high operational costs at present will be reduced considerably.
