Sequential coagulation and Fe0-O3/H2O2 process for removing recalcitrant organics from semi-aerobic aged refuse biofilter leachate: Treatment efficiency and degradation mechanism

Landfill leachate effluent obtained after semi-aerobic aged refuse biofilter (SAARB) treatment still contains various recalcitrant organics. In this study, a sequential coagulation and Fe0-O3/H2O2 process was developed for treating SAARB leachate. The effects in terms of degradation of recalcitrant organics and the related mechanisms due to the coagulation and Fe0-O3/H2O2 processes were systematically explored and discussed. The results...
