Reduction of COD and ammoniacal nitrogen from landfill leachate using granular activated carbon and green mussel adsorbent

Amir Detho et al.

Summary: The study focused on treating leachate from landfills using a combination of activated carbon and green mussel, achieving a good degradation effect and identifying optimal treatment conditions. The results showed that this mixed media can be an effective method for treating leachate wastewater, potentially serving as an economical and sustainable adsorbent.

Comparison study of COD and ammoniacal nitrogen adsorption on activated coconut shell carbon, green mussel (Perna viridis), zeolite and composite material in stabilized landfill leachate treatment

Amir Detho et al.

Summary: The study investigated the adsorption capacity of activated coconut shell carbon, green mussel, zeolite and newly composite mass on COD and ammoniacal nitrogen in leachate wastewater treatment. The results showed that the composite adsorbents exhibited higher removal efficiency for both COD and ammoniacal nitrogen compared to other materials. Langmuir model was slightly better fitted for organic constituents while Freundlich model was more suitable for ammoniacal nitrogen.

COD and ammoniacal nitrogen reduction from stabilized landfill leachate using carbon mineral composite adsorbent

Amir Detho et al.

Summary: The research successfully utilized low-cost adsorbents like green mussel waste, granular activated carbon, and zeolite to treat leachate, achieving significant reductions in COD and ammonia nitrogen concentrations. Through batch experiments and optimization, the best ratio of hydrophobic and hydrophilic media was determined to be 7:3, showing an effective reduction in pollutants. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms were found to be best fitted for COD and ammonia nitrogen reduction, with high adsorption capacities.
