Treatment of leachate in aerated lagoons. Lab-scale study. VA 3/85
Abstract
In this study aerated lagoons were simulated in 5 litre Erlenmeyer flasks. The experiments showed that phosphorus nutrient supplement- ation is required for efficient treatment of leachate from a young sanitary landfill. Excellent treatment efficiency can be achieved at low temperatures (0-4 °C) provided that solids retention time is maintained near 40 days and phosphorus supplementation is practised.
