Biological system consisting of an up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) and anoxic-oxic (A/O) reactor was applied to treat high ammonium content urban landfill leachate. Inhibitory effect of free ammonia (FA) and free nitrous acid (FNA) on nitrifying bacteria activity was used to achieve nitrogen removal via nitrite pathway in the A/O. Results demonstrated that removed efficiencies of COD, total nitrogen (TN) and NH4+-N were 95.3%, 84.6 %and 99.2%, respectively. Stable nitrite pathway with above 90% nitrite accumulation was successfully achieved in the A/O reactor by synergetic inhibition of FA and FNA on the activity of nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB). Moreover, Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis showed that AOB was dominant microorganism.

As precipitation percolates through a landfill, it comes in contact with decomposing waste ranging from food wastes to factory wastes even to hazardous wastes. That water can then leach elements from the wastes and become contaminated forming what is typically called landfill leachate. Leachate has the potential to cause many health problems if allowed to reach the groundwater and every effort is made to slow and minimize its effect. The most common way of dealing with leachate is to pump it out of the base of the landfill with a series of pipes and pumps, but what about the treatment of the leachate in‐situ through the use of a permeable reactive barrier? Is it a viable solution?
