Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparison Between Biological Treatment and Chemical Precipitation for Nitrogen Removal from Old Landfill LeachateLong Tengrui, Anas F. Al-Harbawi, He Qiang, Zhai JunThe study reports the results of a laboratory scale investigation aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of mature municipal landfill leachate treatment by a biological stage (used SBBR as a biological treatment) and Chemical precipitation (Used MAP precipitation (magnesium ammonium phosphate)) to study the nitrogen removal capabilities for treatment of sanitary landfill leachate containing high ammonia concentration, and the comparison between … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTreatment of Landfill Leachate using Limestone/Sandstone Filters Under Aerobic Batch ConditionsAbdel E. Ghaly, M.A. Kamal, N.S. Mahmoud, R. CoteThe suitability of a passive technology, consisting of filters composed of a mixture of limestone and sandstone rocks, for the treatment of landfill leachates containing 6.6 mg Lˉ1 iron and 1.8 mg Lˉ1 manganese were investigated. The limestone and the limestone/sandstone filters successfully removed iron from the prepared solutions. The filters removed on average a minimum of 97.60% of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,070 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUptake and Translocation of Iron by Native Tree Species In A Constructed Wetland Treating Landfill LeachatesA. Snow, A. E. Ghaly, R. Cote, A.M. SnowA surface flow wetland was constructed in the Burnside Industrial Park, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, to treat stormwater runoff from the surrounding watersheds which are comprised primarily of commercial properties and two former landfills. The objectives of this study were: (a) to compare the uptake of iron by red maple, white birch and red spruce trees growing under flooded soil conditions … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 6,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUptake and Translocation of Manganese by Native Tree Species in a Constructed Wetland Treating Landfill LeachatesA. Snow, A.E. GhalyA surface flow constructed wetland was used to treat stormwater runoff from surrounding watersheds which are comprised primarily of commercial properties and two former landfills. The uptake of manganese by red maple, white birch and red spruce trees growing under flooded soil conditions in the constructed wetland was compared to that of the same trees growing under well drained soil … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,507 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHeavy Metal Contents in Beef Cattle Grazing in Landfill of Makassar City, IndonesiaAmbo Ako, Renny Fatmyah Utamy, Syamsuddin Nompo et al.The study analyzed heavy metal contents found in the beef cattle grazing in Landfill of Makassar City, Indonesia. The experiments samples were obtained from two different periods of grazing. One period was 2- and the other was 5-year-grazing with a total of 15 cattle, grazing in the landfill. Blood, feces, meat and liver were sampled to measure lead and cadmium … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2019 · 8,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSolid Waste Disposal and its Impact on Surrounding Environment of Matuail landfill Site, Dhaka, BangladeshMd. Faruque Hossain, Esrat Jahan, Zakia Parveen et al.An investigation was conducted to assess the impact of solid waste disposal on surrounding environment of Matuail landfill site of Dhaka city. Three different locations such as current dumping, abandoned and its surrounded agricultural areas of Matuail landfill were selected for soil and plant samples, leachate from active dumping and fish samples from treated leachate pond. The Cu, Zn and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 16 Nov 2018 · 12,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNitrifying, Denitrifying and Heterotrophic Biomass Present in Moving Bed-ReactorAndreliza Carolina Del Grossi Oliveira, Camila Zoe Correa, Kátia Valéria Marques Cardoso Prates, Deize Dias LopesThis study was carried out to evaluate the main bacterial communities related to the removal of nitrogen in a moving bed-reactor treating landfill leachate, relating the physico-chemical parameters with the existence of these organisms in the mixed liquor (non-attached microorganisms) and Support Material (SM). The system was operated in two phases: Phase I (without effluent recirculation) and II (with recirculation, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2017 · 7,633 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCOUPLED NITROGEN AND OXYGEN ISOTOPE STUDY OF NITRATE AT A RURAL UNLINED LANDFILL IN WESTERN VICTORIA, AUSTRALIAJohn W. Moreau, Andrew M. MinardUnderstanding of site-scale physical and chemical heterogeneities will inform remediation strategies for unlined rural landfills worldwide. The aim of this study was to characterize potential sources of nitrogen contamination to groundwater at an unlined landfill in rural western Victoria, Australia. Results revealed simultaneously high concentrations of both nitrate and ammonia within several wells, indicative of heterogeneous redox potentials within the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 30 Jun 2014 · 7,610 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImpact of Earthquake Demolition Debris on the Quality of GroundwaterM. S. Benmenni, K. BenrachediProblem statement: Debris from construction or demolition/deconstruction processes have no significant impact on the environment as they are res-usable and inert. This has been also long admitted for solid waste generated by the demolition of damaged cities following violent earthquakes. Approach: This study is a contribution to the assessment of actual impact on the quality of groundwater of buried demolition … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,242 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsManganese Uptake By Facultative and Obligate Wetland Plants Under Laboratory ConditionsA. E. Ghaly, A. Snow, M. KamalThe effect of initial concentrations of manganese on the overall removal efficiency of Mn by wool grass, soft rush, broad leaved cattail and soft stem bulrush plants was investigated under laboratory conditions. The translocation of Mn in the roots, stems, leaves and flowers of each plant species was determined and the fraction of Mn removed by precipitation was calculated.
