When to Install Reed Beds or Biological SBR Treatment
“Making a good choice whether to Install Reed Beds or Biological SBR Treatment Processes for Treating Landfill Leachate” The question often arises for landfill operators, of whether to use a “SBR” Leachate Treatment Process, or if the cheaper alternative of a reed bed can be used. The answer is that it depends entirely on the strength […]
Is Long-Term Recirculation Of Leachate Concentrate From Reverse Osmosis Treatment Sustainable?
The Reverse Osmosis process is unique, it alone consistently removes salts (salinity) from leachate, apart from prohibitively energy expensive, physical evaporative methods, so it is an obvious candidate for leachate treatment.
Landfill Leachate Composition
Landfill leachate composition for United Kingdom Landfills was first published in the Waste Management Papers published by the UK Department of Environment. Waste Management Paper 26 contains the most recent table of Landfill Leachate Composition before the WMP series was superseded by later documents, notably the DoE’s Leachate Report of 1995. However, the original table, […]
How Do You Treat Leachate?
First of all when asked the question, “How Do You Treat Leachate?”, we would like to make a distinction between true treatment which involves converting environmentally damaging substances to less, or non-toxic, ones, and simply concentrating the contaminants from the water in leachate to give a volume reduction. In the water industry both are known as […]
Wastewater Treatment in Wetlands: Contaminant Removal Processes
An Introduction to Wastewater Treatment in Wetlands Originally published by U.S. Department of Agriculture, Cooperative Extension Service, University of Florida Wastewater treatment in wetlands can be highly effective, [including for leachates]. Wetlands are commonly known as biological filters, providing protection for water resources such as lakes, estuaries and ground water. Although wetlands have always served this purpose, […]
