Treatment of Membrane Concentrated “Young” Landfill Leachate by Coagulation Sedimentation

Abstract

A self-made coagulant was applied in the treatment of some membrane concentrated reject of the “young” landfill leachate. The optimum operation diameters were determined by orthogonal and single factor experiments. Under the optimum conditions, the values of COD and ammonia nitrogen of water sample after treatment were 88 mg/L and 10.8 mg/L, respectively, which reached the standard in Pollution Control Standard of Domestic Refuse Landfill GB 16889-2008. Therefore, coagulation method can be applied in the treatment of membrane concentrated “young” landfill leachate to achieve standard discharge.
