Leachate pollution index (LPI) value can be used as a tool to assess the leachate pollution potential of landfill sites particularly at places where there is a high risk of leachate migration and pollution of groundwater and thus can help to take necessary decisions as deem fit. In this paper, leachate treatment efficiency was evaluated on the basis of LPI value of leachate before and after tre...

Landfill leachates are potential threats for environmental degradation. This study was conducted to determine the leachate quality, to identify the dominant pollutants and to evaluate the leachate pollution potential of an active and closed dumping ground of an uncontrolled municipal solid waste landfill site in Kolkata, India using leachate pollution index. The results of the physico-chemical ...

(Received: July 21, 2012; Accepted in Revised Form: July 5, 2013) Abstract: The principal concern of this study is to formulate the sub-pollution indices (sub-LPIs) and evaluate the individual and overall leachate pollutant index (LPI) of pilot scale landfill lysimeter at KUET campus, Bangladesh. To these endeavors, leachate samples from collection chamber of landfill lysimeter were sampling an...

This study characterizes the leachates quality of an active dumpsite in Warri, Delta State and also analyses its contamination or pollution potential. Leachate Pollution Index (LPI) a tool for quantifying pollution potential of leachates generated from dumpsites has been used to quantify the leachates contamination potential of the dumpsite. The LPI values for the different sample locations L1,...

With increased population, rapid industrialization and life style changes, the characteristics and the rates of solid waste generation have gone under drastic change in India. Generally, in India, management of solid waste landfill is of major concern with respect to the existing circumstances. The illegal dumping of municipal solid waste on the outskirts of cities is creating major environment...

in iraq, waste generation was increased after 2003 war events due to intensepopulation developmentand economic growth. the limitation of designable system for municipal solidwaste (msw) management led toserious problems regarding environment and human health. sanitary landfill in the south of kirkuk is the first kindof effective system for municipal solid waste management in iraq. in the first ...

The improper treatment of landfill leachates is one the major problems associated with waste landfilling and causes serious environmental pollution at sites their surroundings. To develop a suitable leachate system to minimize risk pollution, it important characterize seasonal temporal variations leachates. This study investigated quality Nam Son in Hanoi, Vietnam 2017–2019 characterized potent...

Abstract Leachate originating from municipal solid waste landfills poses a serious contamination threat to public health. The study performed bio-physicochemical characterization of leachate two in Oman, i.e., Multaqa landfill (MLL) and Barka (BLL) before after rainfall. Samples were characterized for 92 parameters. Additionally, the pollution index (LPI) was estimated assess expected levels po...
