“…Among the heavy metals studied, the concentration of Zn was the highest in groundwater. Similarly, Foufou et al ( 2017 ) observed excess Zn in the examined groundwater. Concentrations of Cr +6 , Cd, Cu, Pb and Hg remained at a low level, similar to the neutral reaction.…”

The aim of the study was to assess the impact of a small municipal landfill on the aquatic environment over 9 years, using advanced statistical tools. The results of the study of surface, ground- and leachate waters from 2008 to 2016 were subjected to detailed statistical analysis based on 15 physicochemical indicators. Factor analysis accounted for the requirements of the WHO, the European Union and the nation of Poland using 8 statistical analytical methods. The analysis of leachate contamination from the landfill site with the use of advanced statistical tools revealed its interaction with groundwater. The assessment was based on increased and statistically significant values and correlations of temperature, Zn and N–NO3 between leachate and groundwater, factors demonstrating the negative impact of the landfill. In the case of Zn, there was also a correlation between the tested waters below the landfill. The increased PAH values in the examined surface and ground waters were not a consequence of waste disposal. However, the deterioration of the chemical state of groundwater in the vicinity of the landfill could result from a certain dysfunction of the facility’s infrastructure after operating for more than 20 years.

“…The representation on the diagram of Piper and Schoeller we allowed a rapid approach of analytical results with a view to characterize the waters (Fig. 10 and 11) and to classify the anions and major cations for the aquifers (Foufou A. et al, 2017;Belkhiri L. et al, 2017).…”

This study concerns the analysis of the physico-chemical parameters (T°, pH, EC, NO3-, Cl-, PO43-, HCO3-, SO42-, Ca2+, Mg2+, K+ and Na+) of groundwater from the Doukkala, in order to establish its pollution diagnosis. Thus, water samples were taken at 8 stations in January and July.The results show that the wells are characterized by a geochemical facies Chloride and sulphate of calcium and magnesiu and potassium chloride or sodium sulphate. According to Moroccan standards and the values of certain parameters such as temperature, hydrogen potential, conductivity, alkalis, alkaline earth metals, sulphates, chlorides the studied the ground water was classified from good to poor quality (CNS, 1994).

“…A study by Sharifah et al (2015) also reported a high concentration of heavy metals in Malaysia's topsoil of non-sanitary landfills. The contaminated groundwater with heavy metals that serve as a source of drinking water, as well as the accumulation of heavy metals in soil and vegetables in high amounts, can cause adverse health effects to both animals and human beings (Foufou et al, 2017;Khaled & Muhammad, 2016).…”

This study aims to calculate the avoided leachate volume and treatment cost from waste segregation practices compared to the existing waste disposal methods of landfilling. The mathematical equations were used to analyse the waste segregation rate, leachate volume and treatment cost. The study findings reveal that 99.4% of mixed waste was disposed of in landfills, resulting in an annual generation of 565 thousand cubic meters (m3) of leachate with an estimated treatment cost of MYR 19.82 million (USD 4.36 million). The segregated waste, which accounts for only 0.06%, reduces 354 m3 in leachate volume and a cost-saving of MYR 12.42 thousand (USD 2.73 thousand) in the treatment expenses per year. The findings concluded that waste segregation practice could reduce waste management costs by reducing leachate production and treatment costs and environmental impacts.
