Dumping of solid waste in the non-engineered landfill is very common in the developing
countries. Among the different disadvantages of this kind of landfilling, leachate is the major …

This review assesses the leachate quality from waste disposal sites in tropical climate zone.
Through this review, data from 228 leachate samples from 145 waste disposal sites from 18 …

Landfills are a potential threat to human health and the environment, especially from the
detrimental and toxic heavy metals. This study focuses on the assessment of heavy metals …

Landfill leachate is a significant environmental threat due to the complexity and variety of its
pollutants. There are various physical, chemical, and biological treatment methods proposed …

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) such as Fenton, electro-Fenton and photo-Fenton
have been applied effectively to remove refractory organics from landfill leachate. The …

Using published data, this study examined differences in pollutant levels in the leachate
between landfills and dumpsites in Africa, Asia and Latin America. It is the first to focus on …

The inevitable consequence of the operation of landfills is the emission of leachate, which is
considered to be one of the main polluters of the ground and water environment. The …

Leachate is produced from sanitary landfills containing various pollutants, including heavy
metals. This study aimed to determine the resistance of bacteria isolated from non-active …

More and more stringent requirements for pollution control and the implementation of the
new discharge standard for landfill leachate make the development and application of …

Dumping of solid waste in a non-engineered landfill site often leads to contamination of
ground water due to leachate percolation into ground water. The present paper assesses …
