Critical Review and Summary of Leachate and Gas Production from Landfills

摘要

A Cooperative Agreement between the Municipal Environmental Research Laboratory and the Georgia Institute of Technology was established in 1983 to provide an evaluation of the state-of-the-art in municipal waste, landfill leachate and gas management. Summaries of full-scale and experimental-scale data on leachate and gas characteristics, control methods, and the performance of a number of biological and physical-chemical treatment alternatives have been developed and are presented together with recommendations for process implementation and future research.
