Physico-chemical removal of colour and iron from anaerobic landfill leachate by zeolite and limestone-Batch experiments
Leachate generated from one of the old landfills in Malaysia was characterized. Colour, and iron was found in significant amount. The ability of limestone, zeolite and their mixtures as filter media to attenuate colour and total iron from anaerobic leachate was investigated in this study. Influence...
