Abstract:

Electrodialysis and Fenton reagent method were combined to decrease the concentration of NH4+-N and CODCr in landfill leachates by means of coupling membrane triple chamber cell. NH4+-N in landfill leachates was enriched in catholyte by electrodialysis, then removed by  chemical precipitation. In the meantime, Fe2+ was generated at the Fe anode.  H2O2 was dropped into the anolyte to produce Fenton reagent, which could degrade organic compounds and decrease the concentration of CODCr. The experimental results show that the removal rate of NH4+-N in simulated wastewater was up to 80% , and the concentrations of NH4+-N and CODCr in the landfill leachates were decreased from 1982 mg/L and 2248mg/L to 200mg/L and 127mg/L,respectively.

 

Key words: landfill leachates, electrodialysis, Fenton reagent
