Abstract
Ozonation was evaluated as a treatment process for domestic landfill leachates. Bench-scale batch and continuous flow experiments depicted that the process is effective in color removal but considerably less effective in TOC and ammonia removal. The high buffer capacity of the leachate maintained relatively constant pH through the process. Biodegradability of the leachate as measured by BOD/COD also improved.Keywords
