| Summary: | The contents of this report are a study of the approach taken in the advanced oxidation of municipal landfill leachate using the Fenton process. This process is used for the effective reduction in concentration of organic contaminants in municipal landfill leachate. The study will be looking at the aspects of the advanced oxidation process, indicating the significances of each of the components towards the treatment of the municipal landfill leachate. The efficiencies for this process are measured by the reduction of COD and five day BOD. The study will however focus on the removal effect of the Fenton process on xenobiotic organic compounds. The xenobiotic organic compounds referred to in this study are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These xenobiotic substances are known to be found in leachate in trace levels. The study will be looking into how different chemical reactions contribute to essentially treating the municipal landfill leachate. |
