Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 環境工程研究所 === 82 === Physical-chemical processes, including chemical coagulation, granular activated carbon (GAC) adsorption and electrochemical oxidation, were used to investigate the feasibility for the treatment of refractory landfill leachate. The raw landfill leachate contained high strength of COD and ammonium with the concentrations of 2700 mg/l and 1800 mg/l, respectively. Besides, the BOD/COD ratio was only 0.1, and the transparency was only 2.5 cm. Among these three processes,chemical coagulation could remove about 60% COD under the conditions of pH 6 anddosage of 3000 mg/l ferric chloride. The GAC adsorption phenomena of the landfill leachate carried out for 24 hours at pH 7 and 25℃ could be described adequately by the Freundich isotherm, and the adsorptive capacity was only 30 mg-COD/g-GAC at the equilibrium concentration of 500 mg/l COD. Electrochemical oxidation process exhibited good efficacy for the treatment of landfill leachate, and both COD and ammonium removal efficiencies were increased with the increase of operating current density and addition of chloride. After 3 hour electrolysis with the addition of 3000 mg/l chloride, COD and ammonium could be removed 59% and 92%, respectively. From gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analysis results, it discovered that theabove three processes could remove specific group of organic matters in landfill leachate. Chemical coagulation could mainly remove the organicmatters with molecular weight(MW) higher than 15000, while GAC adsorption was effective for the removal of organicmatters with low molecular weight (MW<5000). Electrochemical oxidation could removeboth high and low MW organic matters, but the destruction of high MW organic matters was much facile. Using chemical coagulation c/o electrochemical oxidation as the pre-treatment before GAC adsorption, the adsorptive capacity of landfill leachate was improved due to the increase of low MW matters fraction in
