Treatment of Leachate by Aged-Refuse Reactor in Natural Ventilation during Autumn and Winter

Abstract:

The effect of temperature on two stage aged-refuse-based reactor which treats leachate in natural ventilation was investigated in autumn and winter. Results indicate that the average concentrations of COD in treated effluent increase from 726 mg/L in autumn to 2000 mg/L in winter in the first stage reactor while they are 246 mg/L and 1010 mg/L respectively in the second stage reactor. The average concentrations of NH3-N in treated effluent increase from 123.7 mg/L in autumn to 620 mg/L in winter in the first stage reactor while they are 123.7 mg/L and 620 mg/L respectively in the second stage reactor. Accordingly, the average removal rates of COD decrease from 81.7% of autumn to 73% of winter in the first stage reactor and decrease from 64.7% to 52% in the second stage reactor, and finally, the total COD removal rate in this system drops from 92.7% in autumn to 85.8% in winter. So we can conclude that the effect of temperature on the first stage aged refuse reactor is better than that on the second stage aged refuse reactor.
