Influence Factors of Landfill Leachate Treatment with CWAO Method
Landfill Leachate is a kind of organic wastewater with high concentration and non-biochemical character, and Catalytic Wet Air Oxidation (CWAO) is suitable for this kind of wastewater treatment. In this study, Landfill leachate was treated with Catalytic Wet Air Oxidation (CWAO) method. The monitoring indicators consist of CODCr, absorbance, pH and chroma. The results show that: CODCr removal rate and decolorization rate of landfill leachate reduce with the reduction of the influent pH, the increment of water concentration and the extension of the reaction time; Under the optimized operating conditions: the influent pH of 8.10, the influent CODCr of 16611 mg/L, the reaction time of 90 min, the CODCr removal rate and decolorization rate of landfill leachate reach 56.8% and 83.7%, respectively. The effluent pH is 8.33 and chroma is 1600 times.
