Production of nanopore structure bio-adsorbent from wood waste through a self-sustained carbonization process for landfill leachate treatment

The discharge of leachate poses a serious risk to both surface water and groundwater from landfills. As rainwater and moisture seep through waste in landfills, it will release leachate which is high in concentration of organic matter and ammonium nitrogen. Adsorption process using activated carbon w...
