The hazardous factors influencing the disposal of solid household waste on the components of the environment belongs to the filtrate, the formation of which does not stop after the cessation of the operation of landfills. To solve the problem of environmental hazard of the filtrate can be done through the implementation of phased environmental measures. Priority measures include the arrangement of a system for collecting and removing filtrate from the landfill body. The main environmental measures are to clean the removed filtrate. The research of the properties of the filtrate of each individual landfill is necessary to justify the choice of the most effective methods of cleaning it. The purpose of the work was to study the properties of the filtrate, which continues to be formed after the cessation of the operation of the landfill of municipal solid waste in the city of Lviv. It is established that the studied filtrate is a solution with a high concentration of chemical compounds. For most indicators of filtrate is characterized by seasonal dynamics. After the warm season, the COD and BOD5 in the filtrate is increases the concentration of chloride anions, ammonium nitrogen, total iron increases; decreases the content of nitrates, nitrites and petroleum products. The indicators of filtrate, which do not change during the seasons, include the content of sulphates, phosphates and heavy metals (copper, lead, zinc). The filtrate, which continues to be formed at the municipal solid waste landfill, tends to reduce the content of heavy metals (copper, zinc, lead), ammonium nitrogen, chlorides and COD and an increase in the content of anions (phosphates, sulfates, nitrites, nitrates), oil products and BOD5. The studied filtrate does not meet the requirements for the composition and properties of wastewater discharged in-to the central city system for the content of chlorides, sulfates, nitrates, nitrites, ammonium nitrogen, lead, zinc, total iron. The filtrate can be discharged into the wastewater system only after pretreatment using methods that ensure that the filtrate indicators comply with the permissible values of indicators in the wastewater sample, the established re-quirements for the composition and properties of wastewater discharged into the wastewater system.

Waste is a product of society and one of the biggest challenges for future generations is to understand how to sustainably dispose of large amounts of waste. The main objective of this study was to determine the possibility and conditions of the decentralized combustion of non-hazardous municipal waste. The analysis of the combustion properties of a mixture of wood chips and 20–30% of municipal solid waste showed an improvement in the operating parameters of the combustion process. Analysis also confirmed that the co-combustion of dirty fuels and biomass reduced the risk of releasing minerals and heavy metals from fuel into the natural environment. Approximately 55% of the heavy metals passed into the ash. The analysis of municipal solid waste and fuel mixtures containing municipal solid waste for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons showed the risk of increasing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon concentrations in flue gases.

Melting solidification experiments of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash were carried out in a high-temperature tube furnace device. An ash fusion temperature (AFT) test, atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were applied in order to gain insight into the ash fusibility, the transformation during the melting process, and the leaching behavior of heavy metals in slag. The results showed that oxide minerals transformed into gehlenite as temperature increased. When the temperature increased to 1300 °C, 89 °C higher than the flow temperature (FT), all of the crystals transformed into molten slag. When the heating temperatures were higher than the FT, the volatilization of the Pb, Cd, Zn, and Cu decreased, which may have been influenced by the formation of liquid slag. In addition, the formation of liquid slag at a high temperature also improved the stability of heavy metals in heated slag.

Bottom ash is a part of by-product from the municipal solid waste power plants which is always a wider problem for the urban and rural communities due to its disposal plants may cause serious environmental pollution. This work was focused on the residual heavy metal in an incinerator bottom ash from the municipal waste power plant placed in Nongkham district, Bangkok. Four bottom ash samples were obtained in 2017. After drying and grounding, the bottom ash samples were prepared to clear solution with the microwave digestion technique using nitric, hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acid under the heating program. The total residual heavy metals in the incinerator bottom ashes, such as lead, copper, zinc, and cadmium were determined by using flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer (FAAS) with deuterium background correction. The total concentration of lead, copper, zinc and cadmium were found in the range of 280.40-354.22mg kg-1, 365.35-524.45 mg kg-1, 1,527.25-2,074.34 mg kg-1, and 0.48-1.02 mg kg-1, respectively. The recovery of all metals was found in the range of 89.4-101.2% and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was to be 2.15-3.55 % (n=7). The concentration of zinc, copper, and lead was found high levels, while cadmium was low concentration. Heavy metals in solid waste material occur in different chemical forms and phases. The sample preparation based on the microwave digestion was successfully developed for the waste samples with a good reliability.
