Summary: | An experimental project was conducted on samples of contaminated soil to investigate the effect of leachate on the soil chemistry of a landfill site. The investigation was done on soil obtained from landfill site at Batu 10, Jalan Bukit Kemuning, Kelang. The landfill was selected because it was the only available site nearby and a particular it was not provided with lining. Laboratory tests were conducted at the Sanitary and Public Health Laboratory Civil Engineering Department and the tests were of pH, conductivity and some of dissolved metals such as sulphate, chloride, iron, nitrate and manganese. The prime project objective was to investigate the effect of leachate on soil chemistry and its implications on the environment and human health. |
