Land Application of Municipal Landfill Leachate: Fate of Ions and Ammonia Volatilization

Abstract: Landfill leachates are pollutants rich in ammoniacal N, Na, and K, but land application potentially offers an alternative for recycling these leachate nutrients. We applied landfill leachate corresponding to 0, 110, 220, 330, and 440 kg ha of total N, divided in three applications (July, August, and October 2008), onto the surface of an acidic (pH 5.5-6.0) clay (79% clay) Ultisol and monitored NH volatilization just after applications and microbiological (0-10 cm) and chemical attributes (0-60-cm soil depth) i… Show more

“…Nevertheless, even after treatment, the leachate may not fit the parameters required by environmental agencies for release in water streams (Renou et al, 2008). In this context, soil applications have become a promising way to recycle landfill leachates (Santos et al, 2013).…”

“…Thus, the effects on plants are mainly attributable to available nutrients, which can be assessed directly by measuring their concentrations in plants (Tewolde et al, 2005). However, few studies have been done on land application of landfill leachates (e.g., Wilson et al, 2007; Santos et al, 2013), and few studies have assessed how nutrients in leachate can contribute to plant nutrition and production.…”

“…A large number of studies have been conducted in the past several decades on how landfills may impact on the environment, such as through gas emission, olfactory nuisance, and global greenhouse effects (e.g., Molins et al 2008;Chanton et al 2009;Lou and Nair 2009;Bogner et al 2011), landfill leachate generation (Lee et al 2002;MacDonald et al 2008;Renou et al 2008;Santos et al 2013), pollution control and health risk assessment (Chrysikou et al 2008;Mari et al 2009), and landfill phytoremediation and bioremediation (Bennett et al 2003;Kim and Owens 2010;Justin et al 2010;Davari et al 2015). Other studies have focused on optimal siting of waste treatment facilities (Aragonés-Beltrán et al 2010;Tavares et al 2011) and on landfill site selection (Ekmekcioglu et al 2010;Gorsevski et al 2012;Eskandari et al 2013).…”
