Critical approach to anaerobic bioreactors landfill technology

5 CRITICAL APPROACH TO ANAEROBIC BIOREACTORS LANDFILL TECHNOLOGY [Pg.39]

Liquid recirculation in a landfill is linked to the risk of adverse effects associated with intensive gas production and fast settlement of the waste mass. The main potential disadvantages are  [Pg.39]

Risk of surface seepages. The low permeability of the material that is used as a daily or intermediate cover for the landfilled waste can cause lateral migration of the liquids. Soh Hettiaratchi (2009) showed that when silt loam was used as a cover, less than 1% of the leachate seeped through the cover layer, but when sand was used no lateral leachate migration was observed and 100% of the leachate seeped through the cover. [Pg.40]

Risk of chloride and ammonia nitrogen accumulation in landfills, which could inhibit methanogenesis. To eliminate the problem of ammonia s toxic effects, leachate should be pre-aerated before recirculation (Francois et al. 2007). [Pg.40]

Intensified odour nuisance. Compared to traditional landfills, bioreactor landfills produce more gases, such as HjS, which have an extremely putrid smell. [Pg.40]
