Free eBook: “When to Install – Reed Beds or a Biological SBR”

Learn when a reed bed can be used for leachate treatment, and when the more expensive choice of a more high-tech leachate solution will be needed, such as a Sequencing Batch Reactor Leachate Treatment Plant.

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 […]

Construction Starts on the World’s Most Expensive Leachate Treatment Plant

Construction has started on the world’s most expensive leachate treatment plant which at $27 million will be the most expensive ever built in the world to date.  A number of plants are estimated to have been built at up to $15 million previously, but this one is significantly the most expensive in terms of the […]

Air Ammonia Stripping

Air Ammonia Stripping is a leachate treatment process which is now largely outdated and seldom used. During the 1980s in the United Kingdom it was seen as a potential physico-chemical leachate treatment process which would be suitable for the treatment of leachate from sanitary (lined and capped) landfills, however, although a number of pilot scale […]

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 […]

Software Resources

We plan to add a number of leachate software applications to this page over the next few months, which our visitors can download and install, and which will provide solutions to a number of problems experienced by leachate treatment plant operators. Our first two are now available, a handy conversion calculator (see below), and (see […]

Avoiding Over Reliance on the Hydrologic Evaluation of Landfill Performance (HELP) Computer Program

“The person who walks with his/her eyes on the stars, is susceptible to the puddles in the road.” We all would like to follow our stars, but at times we need to do some “puddle watching” too! Sometimes we need to know what not to do, what things and actions to avoid, and why…

What is the Drainable Porosity of a Landfill?

When designing any leachate management system the assessment of the most economic method for leachate treatment and disposal is heavily dependent upon the flow rate and duration of flow. A high capital cost option such as on site leachate treatment will be worthwhile, but only if the total volume the plant treats daily is sustained […]
