Influence of leachate recirculation on aerobic and anaerobic decomposition of solid wastes

Monitoring transitory profiles of leachate humic substances in landfill aeration reactors in mesophilic and thermophilic conditions

“…Furthermore, the landfill gas, mainly comprised of CH 4 , CO 2 and some nonmethane organic carbon (NMOC), could result in negative aspects associated with unpleasant odor, explosion, global warming and deleterious health effects [2]. On top of that, the long-term adverse environmental impact caused by MSW landfills may last for decades, or even centuries [3].…”

Influence of Recycling Different Leachate Volumes on Refuse Anaerobic Degradation

“…3), EC values were similar (Table 4), which has a two-fold explanation: acidic pH values are known to propitiate ion dilution [8,35]; but in the other case, the EC is likely to be related to drainage of compounds by the higher volumes of recycled leachate in the 70 and 80% MC [15].…”

Utilization of the White-rot Fungus, Trametes menziesiifor Landfill Leachate Treatment

“…Biological activity within landfill influence chemical concentration levels of the landfill. Particularly, at the onset of biodegradation processes the high organic and moisture contents resulted in an extremely strong leachate, (2009) which can affect the leachate treatment facility (Bilgili et al 2007). Besides comparing the characteristics of leachate from different types of landfills, the characteristics of leachate from active and closed landfills were also compared.…”
