Investigation of 1,4-dioxane originating from incineration residues produced by incineration of municipal solid waste

As a groundwater contaminant, 1,4-dioxane is of considerable concern because of its toxicity, refractory nature to degradation, and rapid migration within an aquifer. Although landfill leachate has been reported to contain significant levels of 1,4-dioxane, the origin of 1,4-dioxane in leachate has not been clarified until now. In this study, the origins of 1,4-dioxane in landfill leachate were investigated at 38 landfill sites and three incineration plants in Japan. Extremely high levels of 1,4-dioxane 89 and 340 microg l(-1), were detected in leachate from two of the landfill sites sampled. Assessments of leachate and measurement of 1,4-dioxane in incineration residues revealed the most likely source of 1,4-dioxane in the leachate to be the fly ash produced by municipal solid waste incinerators. Effective removal of 1,4-dioxane in leachate from fly ash was achieved using heating dechlorination systems. Rapid leaching of 1,4-dioxane observed from fly ash in a sequential batch extraction indicated that the incorporation of a waste washing process could also be effective for the removal of 1,4-dioxane in fly ash.     

某生活垃圾卫生填埋场渗滤液的梯度分离与表征

目前,渗滤液中污染物的粒度分布及其在渗滤液污染控制中的作用日益受到关注。通过系列微滤膜(1.2μm及0.45μm)对某生活垃圾卫生填埋场渗滤液各处理单元的渗滤液进行梯度分离,发现悬浮物对COD、浊度的影响较大;COD主要在胶体态和可溶解态间分配,不同渗滤液中的分配情况不同;磷主要与胶体、悬浮物以各种形式结合而存在;细胶粒和溶解态等小分子对TN的贡献大;不同粒度物质对pH的影响不明显;总残渣在可溶态组分中所占比例较大。膜微滤处理渗滤液可以有效的去除一部分物质,使COD、TP、TN、浊度、电导率都有不同程度的降低,pH逐渐升高,但对总N、残渣的去除效果不好。     

Effect of landfill leachate irrigation on red maple (Acer rubrum L.) and sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) seedling growth and on foliar nutrient concentrations

Greenhouse experiments were conducted to investigate the nature and severity of stresses imposed on northern hardwood tree species (red maple (Acer rubrum L.) and sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.)) by the application of municipal landfill leachate. Red maple seedlings received applications of untreated and pretreated (lime, activated carbon) leachate, to both leaves and soil, at irrigation rates consistent with evapotranspirational demands. Plant height measurements indicated no significant growth effects arising from leachate application over a 7-week period. Stem diameter, however, was positively affected by applications of both untreated and lime-treated leachate diluted to 75% with deionized water. Iron foliar concentrations were significantly higher in seedlings irrigated with untreated leachate applied to leaves and soil, but not in seedlings where leachate was applied to soil only. Nitrogen foliar concentrations were substantially higher in seedlings receiving undiluted and untreated leachate applied to the soil only. The Cu concentration of the red maple foliage decreased appreciably in plants receiving moderate applications of leachate. Foliar Ca concentrations decreased notably in seedlings irrigated with untreated leachate applied to the soil and with diluted, carbon-treated leachate. The Cu concentration of the red maple foliage decreased appreciably in plants receiving applications of undiluted and 50% water-diluted lime-treated leachate while Mn levels were consistently high across all treatments. Leachate application did not cause any discernable changes in foliar concentrations of P, K, Mg, B or Zn. In an ancillary experiment, sugar maple seedlings were subjected to saturation/ drainage treatment cycles with undiluted and untreated leachate. Severe visible symptoms of vegetative stress were apparent within 24 h and 100% seedling mortality occurred after five such waterlogging cycles. Fe assimilation was apparent in both leachate treatments relative to the 24 h water treatment. Despite the short-term nature of the experiments, the results indicate how quickly forest vegetation may respond to altered chemical environments. This underscores the need for correct installation and control of leachate irrigation systems.     

1H-NMR-based profiling of organic components in leachate from animal carcasses disposal site with time

Leachate, generated by the decomposition of animal carcasses, presents many environmental, sanitary, and food safety hazards. However, research on the characteristics of leachate is lacking. In this study, we performed biochemical profiling of leachate from two animal species (pig and cattle) in two soil types (sandy loam and sandy soil) using ¹H-NMR-based profiling, followed by multivariate data analysis. The leachate was collected from a well-controlled artificial burial site over a 31-week period. Principal components analysis (PCA) of the NMR data showed similar patterns between species and soil types. Organic components, including organic acids and phenols, predominated, and their levels increased with time. The methylamine level in leachate from pig carcasses 18 weeks following burial was significantly higher than that from cattle carcasses; leachate from cattle carcasses in sandy soil 1 week after burial contained unique components (specifically ethanol, formate, alanine, N-methylation, and taurine), in contrast with those from sandy loam soil. This study suggests that a NMR-based profiling approach is useful to characterize the organic components in leachate from animal carcasses over time.     

A comparative examination of MBR and SBR performance for the treatment of high-strength landfill leachate

The management of landfill leachate is challenging, with relatively limited work targeting high-strength leachate. In this study, the performance of the membrane bioreactor (MBR) and sequencing batch reactor (SBR) technologies are compared in treating high-strength landfill leachate. The MBR exhibited a superior performance with removal efficiencies exceeding 95% for BOD5, TN, and NH₃ and an improvement on SBR efficiencies ranging between 21 and 34%. The coupled experimental results contribute in filling a gap toward improving the management of high-strength landfill leachate and providing comparative guidelines or selection criteria and limitations for MBR and SBR applications.

ImplicationsWhile the sequencing batch reactor (SBR) technology offers some flexibility in terms of cycle time and sequence, its performance is constrained when considering landfill leachate associated with significant variations in quality and quantity. Combining membrane separation and biodegradation processes or the membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology improved removal efficiencies significantly. In the context of leachate management using the MBR technology, more efforts have targeted low-strength leachate with limited attempts at moderate to high strength leachate. In this study, the SBR and MBR technologies were tested under different operating conditions to compare and evaluate their feasibility for the management of high-strength leachate from a full-scale operating landfill. Such a comparison has not been reported for high-strength leachate.

Leachates from solid wastes: chemical and eco(geno)toxicological differences between leachates obtained from fresh and stabilized industrial organic sludge

The chemical and ecotoxicological characteristics of fresh and stabilized industrial organic sludge leachates were compared to obtain information regarding how the stabilization process can influence the ecotoxic potential of this industrial waste, which could be used for the amendment of degraded soil. Physicochemical analysis of the sludge leachates, as well as a battery of eco(geno)toxicity tests on bacteria, algae, daphnids, and higher plants (including Vicia faba genotoxicity test) and the determination of hydrolytic enzyme activity, was performed according to standard methods. The chemical comparison of the two types of leachate showed that the samples obtained from stabilized sludge had a lower organic content and higher metal content than leachates of the fresh sludge. The eco(geno)toxicological results obtained with aquatic organisms showed that the stabilized sludge leachate was more toxic than the fresh sludge leachate, both originating from the same industrial organic sludge sample. Nevertheless, phytotoxicity tests carried out with a reference peat soil irrigated with stabilized sludge leachate showed the same toxicity as the fresh sludge leachate. In the case of the industrial solid organic sludge studied, stabilization through a biodegradation process promoted a higher metal mobility/bioavailability/eco(geno)toxicity in the stabilized sludge leachate compared to the fresh sludge leachate.

Monitoring leachate composition at a municipal landfill site in New Delhi, India

Most of the landfills in developing countries do not have any liner at the base, or a drainage layer or a proper top cover, which results in the potential problem of groundwater/surface water contamination due to the leachate. Hence, to decide whether the leachate is to be collected and treated, or may be allowed to discharge into the adjoining soil or public sewer or surface waterbody, it is essential to have an estimate of the amount of leachate and, more importantly, the composition and strength of the leachate and variation of leachate contaminants with time as the landfill site develops. In this paper, the experimental work carried out at one of the landfills in New Delhi, India, to ascertain the composition of leachate, and its effect on the groundwater in the existing situation is presented. The variation in the leachate composition with the age of deposition of solid waste has been studied. The study indicates that the leachate composition varies considerably with the age of deposition of the waste. It may be worthwhile to use different methods for the treatment of leachate from different parts of the landfill, if collected separately. It has also been concluded that since leachate contains high concentrations of organic and inorganic constituents, including heavy metals, liners must be used at the landfills. The presence of bore wells at landfill sites to draw groundwater threatens to contaminate the groundwater, and immediate remediation steps should be taken at all landfill sites that have groundwater bore wells.

Phytotoxicity data safeguard the performance of the recipient plants in leachate irrigation

Leachates from an operating and a closed landfill were examined for their phytotoxicity by seed germination/root elongation tests using seeds of Brassica chinensis and Lolium perenne. Their EC50s ranged from 3% to 46% v/v, which varied remarkably with the operating status of the landfills. Seedlings of twelve tree species were grown in pots, which were irrigated with landfill leachate at the EC50 levels, with tap water as control. No tree mortality or growth inhibition was observed after 90 days of leachate application. Chlorophyll fluorescence measurement also showed that plants receiving leachate did not suffer from a decline in photosynthetic efficiency. Litsea glutinosa and Hibiscus tiliaceus had remarkable growth, and other non-N-fixers were not inferior to the N-fixing Acacia auriculiformis. Leachate irrigation improved soil N content, though P deficiency is still a problem. The seed bioassay provided a conservative estimate of the phytotoxicity of landfill leachate. Plants irrigated can be protected from growth inhibition when the leachate irrigation plan is designed with reference to phytotoxicity data.     

PCDD/DF in leachates from Korean MSW landfills

We analyzed levels of PCDD/DF in leachate liquid and solid from five Korean municipal solid waste landfills to investigate the relationship between PCDD/DF and dissolved organic carbon and suspended solids in raw leachate. The concentrations of PCDD/DF ranged from 173.2 to 1329.4 pg/l and 4.1 to 46.22 pg-TEQ/l. The range of PCDD/DF was 123.2-1161.3 pg/l in leachate solid and 50.0-383.3 pg/l in leachate liquid. Our results indicated that PCDD/DF in solid play a major role in determining their concentration levels, and the distribution of isomers in solid was almost the same as in liquid leachate. In addition, highly chlorinated PCDD/DF, such as HpCDD/DF and OCDD/DF, accounted for more than 70% of all isomers. Levels of PCDD/DF in liquid were strongly correlated with dissolved organic carbon concentrations, which increase the leachability (R2 = 0.92 in Korean leachate) of PCDD/DF from contaminant sources. Despite this high linearity between dissolved organic carbon and dissolved PCDD/DF, we observed no strong relationship between dissolved organic carbon and solid phase PCDD/DF (R2 = 0.001). Dissolved organic carbon scarcely affects dissolved PCDD/DF to be combined with solids. As a result, it is not appropriate for incinerated ash to be dumped with municipal solid wastes, as they have a large potential to result in high levels of organic matter, and therefore PCDD/DF, in leachate.     

Application of headspace analysis and AOX-measurement to leachate from hazardous waste landfills

The applicability of headspace analysis for the quantitation of volatile organic compounds in leachates from hazardous waste landfills is investigated with respect to standard stability, leachate stability and reproducibility. Between the corresponding data sets, deviations at about 10 % are observed. Besides the analysis of the volatile leachate components, the sum parameters POX and AOX are determined for the leachate samples. From the POX-data, good agreements with the total organic chlorine determined by headspace analysis are received. For determination of AOX, two different methods are applied to the leachates and discussed with respect to the high concentrations of POX determined in all leachate samples.     

Degradation of organophosphoric esters in leachate from a sea-based solid waste disposal site

Degradation of organophosphoric esters (OPEs) in leachate from a sea-based solid waste disposal site was investigated by laboratory experiment. Aryl-phosphates, tricresyl phosphate and triphenyl phosphate, in leachate rapidly decreased to less than the detection limit within 20 days under aerobic condition, suggesting high biodegradability. These phosphates also decreased in sterilized leachate, which suggested a contribution to degradation by reactions (adsorption and chemical degradation) with chemicals in the leachate. Concerning alkyl-phosphates, tributyl phosphate decreased rapidly after one week, which is considered to have been caused by biodegradation. Tris-2-ethylhexyl phosphate and tris-2-butoxyethyl phosphate decreased slowly in all samples but that of sterilized distilled water. This however, suggested contribution of biodegradation because the velocity of decrease in the leachate was higher than in control samples. Among chloro alkylphosphates, decrease of tris-2-chloroethyl phosphate and tris-dichloropropyl phosphate were observed though it was not obvious whether by biodegradation or not. Decrease of tris-2-chloropropyl phosphate (TCPP) was not observed for 80 days suggesting that TCPP remains in the leachate over a long period of time. Except for aryl-phosphates decrease of OPEs was not observed under anaerobic condition. It was considered that the composition ratio and the behavior of OPEs in leachate in the field reflects the biological and chemical degradation as well as the chemical properties of OPEs.     

Effects of feed solutions on refuse hydrolysis and landfill leachate characteristics

Tap water, aerobically pre-treated leachate, and anaerobically pre-treated leachate, were each fed into the top of a series of three simulated landfills columns, filled with municipal solid waste collected in Shanghai, China. Changes in leachate, including pH, total organic carbon (TOC), and volatile fatty acids (VFAs), and the produced biogas were monitored over time. The tap-water-fed columns had a low hydrolysis rate that yielded an acidic environment (pH 4.8-5.4) in the leachate that inhibited methanogenesis reaction in the refuse. When aerobically pre-treated leachate was fed into the columns, the hydrolysis rate of total organic carbon fluctuated between 200 and 400 mg d-1 and methanogenesis in the refuse column was only partly activated. The hydrolysis rate of refuse fed with anaerobically pre-treated leachate was the highest among the three solutions. The high alkaline levels of the anaerobically pre-treated leachate and its methanogenic bacteria led to an early activation of methanogenesis in the refuse columns. The VFAs contributed approximately 40-60% of TOC in tap-water-fed columns, 60-80% of TOC in the columns fed aerobically pre-treated leachate, and up to 70-90% of TOC in columns fed with anaerobically pre-treated leachate. The feed solution had considerably affected leachate characteristics, and then the build-up of the methanogenesis in the refuse column and the composition of fermentation products in the leachate. The success of a bioreactor landfill depends on whether the recycled leachate could yield a favorable methanogenic environment in the top refuse layer, or whether an appropriate pre-treatment is adopted to modify the leachate characteristics.     

Evolution of clog formation with time in columns permeated with synthetic landfill leachate

Laboratory column tests conducted to gain insight regarding the biological and chemical clogging mechanisms in a porous medium are presented. To seed the porous medium with landfill bacteria, a mixture of Keele Valley Landfill and synthetic leachate permeated through the column under anaerobic conditions for the first 9 days of operation. After this, 100% synthetic leachate was used. The synthetic leachate approximated Keele Valley Landfill leachate in chemical composition but contained negligible suspended solids and bacteria compared with real leachate. The removal of volatile fatty acids (VFAs), primarily acetate, in leachate as it passed through the medium was highly correlated with the precipitation of calcium carbonate (CaCO(3(s))) from solution. The columns experienced a decrease in drainable porosity from an initial value of about 0.38 to less than 0.1 after steady state chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal, resulting in a five-order magnitude decrease in hydraulic conductivity. The decrease in drainable porosity prior to steady state COD removal was primarily due to the growth of a biofilm on the medium surface. After steady state COD removal, calcium precipitation was at least equally responsible for the decrease in drainable porosity as biofilm growth. Clog composition analyses showed that CaCO(3(s)) was the dominant clog constituent and that 99% of the carbonate in the clog material was bound to calcium.
