Aspects influence leachate characteristics on leachate treatment plants in Temesi Landfill Gianyar Regency, Bali Province, Indonesia

摘要

This paper revealed aspects that influenced leachate characteristics in leachate treatment plants located in Temesi landfill. Four aspects observed refers to Law Number 3/2013 Ministry of Public Works: landfill operation; rainfalls; treatment plant designs; operation and maintenance. Data collected by observation and field survey to identify leachate characteristics. Leachates were collected by grab sampling from inlet through outlet of the treatment plants, to be laboratory analysed to meet the standards set by Ministry of Environmental and Forestry Number 59/2016 and compared to the standards. Leachate discharge calculated using Thornthwaite method to be compared to criteria designed. The result shown that leachate discharge is 0.45 L/sec exceeding the designed discharge 0.42 L/sec. Laboratory test result from leachate sampling shown that the BOD, COD and TSS value exceeding the regulation standard in range of > 2000 mg/L. Findings revealed that the depth of maturation ponds is 2.9 meters exceeded the designed criteria. It is found that the landfill operated with open dumping system and the treatment lagoons has never been regularly drained and recirculate. Those practices increase the leachate volume and degenerate the treatment functions. It can be concluded that the 4 aspects mentioned significantly influenced the leachate characteristics.
