Landfill leachate contains heavy organic pollutants, which pollute ground and surface waters. This dataset applied a newly-introduced catalyst, Cu/Mg/Al-chitosan, for a landfill leachate treatment during a catalytic oxidation. The data of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and colour removal from the leachate was reported as a function of reaction time (20-460 min). Economic evaluation data of the Cu...

With increased population, rapid industrialization and life style changes, the characteristics and the rates of solid waste generation have gone under drastic change in India. Generally, in India, management of solid waste landfill is of major concern with respect to the existing circumstances. The illegal dumping of municipal solid waste on the outskirts of cities is creating major environment...

Pekanbaru City is the capital of Riau Province which center government and economy with a large population growth rate. Urban activities will produce solid waste liquid which, if not managed, cause adverse environmental impacts, one effect Greenhouse Gases (GHG). The purpose this study was to determine value emissions from in City. calculation GHG two sectors based on IPCC 2006 refinement 2019....

OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between exposure to a landfill site closed 6 years previously and respiratory symptoms in children aged up to 13 years. METHOD This was a cross-sectional study conducted in Várzea Paulista, in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. One adult in every household in a neighborhood close to the landfill and from a randomized sample of households in another neigh...

(2011) " Post-closure care completion at MSW landfills and residual risks " , In: Proceedings 4th International Workshop " Hydro-physico-mechanics of landfills (HPM4) " , SUMMARY: In this work we present a modelling approach to evaluate residual environmental risks in view of different post-closure management strategies. Potential emission rates of a landfill are estimated based on different sc...

Shortage of land for waste disposal and inappropriate landfill site is one of the biggest problems in most of large urban areas. Therefore more efforts are needed to overcome this problem. Most of the landfill sites in Palestine are selected randomly, and waste is burned and not treated, which impacts nature and human. The main aim of this research is to determine a suitable landfill site with ...

In developing countries land-filling is the most common form of waste management that is practiced. Landfills are known to be anthropogenic sources of air pollutants that have a negative impact on both environmental and human health. People who work on landfill sites are particularly at risk of adverse health effects associated with the inhalation of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), such as vol...

Although phased out of many residential uses in the United States, the disposal of CCA-treated wood remains a concern because significant quantities have yet to be taken out of service, and it is commonly disposed in landfills. Catastrophic events have also led to the concentrated disposal of CCA-treated wood, often in unlined landfills. The goal of this research was to simulate the complex che...

Landfill leachates are often treated on-site before disposal to municipal wastewater treatment plants, although variations in leachate composition and organic loading continue to have negative impacts on downstream treatment processes. Leachate samples were collected from four landfills both before and after on-site treatment to evaluate the extent of biological treatment. The samples vary in a...
