Use of Fenton reaction for the treatment of leachate from composting of different wastes.
Journal of Hazardous Materials 2006 November 3
The oxidation of leachate coming from the composting of two organic wastes (wastewater sludge and organic fraction of municipal solid wastes) using the Fenton's reagent was studied using different ratios [Fe(2+)]/[COD](0) and maintaining a ratio [H(2)O(2)]/[COD](0) equal to 1. The optimal conditions for Fenton reaction were found at a ratio [Fe(2+)]/[COD](0) equal to 0.1. Both leachates were significantly oxidized under these conditions in terms of COD removal (77 and 75% for leachate from wastewater sludge composting and leachate from organic fraction of municipal solid wastes, respectively) and BOD(5) removal (90 and 98% for leachate from wastewater sludge composting and leachate from organic fraction of municipal solid wastes, respectively). Fenton's reagent was found to oxidize preferably biodegradable organic matter of leachate. In consequence, a decrease in the biodegradability of leachates was observed after Fenton treatment for both leachates. Nevertheless, Fenton reaction proved to be a feasible technique for the oxidation of the leachate under study, and it can be considered a suitable treatment for this type of wastewaters.
