Abstract:This paper presents some of the key design considerations and lessons learned from designing and operating landfill Leachate Treatment Facilities (LTFs) based on a decade of experience with numerous landfill leachates. Landfill leachate treatment is a major challenge due to the high and variable contaminant concentrations such as high COD, extremely high ammonia levels, and significant Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) concentrations. Biological Nutrient Removal (BNR) technology, more specifically, the Anoxic/Oxic … Show more
