This book explores cutting-edge methods for sustainable leachate treatment, including advanced processes for organic and inorganic leachate, technologies for water recovery, and strategies for resource recovery and reuse while addressing the critical threats imposed by emerging contaminants. It meticulously addresses the persistent challenges associated with managing organic and inorganic leachate, characterized by its inconsistent generation rate and variable properties. This book evaluates and communicates the most advanced model for predicting generation rates and establishes benchmark characteristic data essential for designing effective treatment technologies. This book includes a thorough techno-commercial feasibility analysis of various existing and emerging physicochemical and biological treatment methods, providing a robust foundation for informed decision-making.
Further, it explores untapped resource recovery and circular economy opportunities for leachate, highlighting necessary legislative amendments in global by-laws to facilitate the waste-to-wealth concept. This book's significant attractors include an impartial focus on leachate treatment from hazardous industrial waste landfill facilities, examination of upcoming treatment technologies to mitigate emerging threats, and identification of the most effective treatment combinations for optimal economic outcomes. Due to its innovative insights, this book is an invaluable resource for environmental, chemical, and civil engineers specializing in waste management.
