The effect of high voltage pulsed discharge (HVPD) combined with TiO on the degradation of refractory organic compounds in actual biotreated landfill leachate was investigated. The optimal chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency could achieve to 58.9% using HVPD+TiO within 30min at 40kV, 400Hz, and the conductivity of 4.05mscm in gas-liquid pulsed discharge. The aromatic compounds decreased by 33.6% compared with HVPD alone according to the UV absorbance at 254nm. Moreover, the fluorescence intensity of humic and fulvic substances was greatly decreased. Active species such as OH radical and HO were enhanced in the presence of TiO, resulting in more high molecular weight organic matter into small molecules or mineralized. In addition, possible degradation pathways was proposed based on acetophenone, which is effective for the degradation of organic matter in biotreated landfill leachate as long as the active species increased.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill leachate have emerged as a critical research focus because of their substantial environmental and health risks. However, the fate and transformation of PFAS across different treatment processes, particularly within specific techniques such as biotreatment, remains understudied in current research. This study systematically investigated the occurrence, fate, and removal of PFAS in a full-scale MSW landfill leachate treatment system in Shanghai, China.

Landfill leachate and concentrates from nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) processes pose potential environmental threats. This study investigates the seasonal variations in the physicochemical properties and acute toxicity of landfill leachate and concentrates from Shenyang, Liaoning, China. The hydrophilic matter (HyI) constituted the major component of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in landfill leachate (68.

The effluent produced from treating landfill leachate via biological methods still contains a large amount of refractory organic matter and needs to be further treated. In this study, we used a microwave-enhanced zero-valent iron/peroxydisulfate (MW/Fe/PDS) system for the further treatment of biotreated landfill leachate effluent (BTLE). We investigated the efficiency and mechanism of removing refractory organic matter from BTLE.

In this study, a hydroxylamine (HA)-enhanced magnetic spinel catalyst CuFeO-activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) system (CuFeO/PMS/HA) was constructed to degrade Sulfamethoxazole (SMX). Results from experiments and theoretical calculations indicated that active species generation mechanism involved the direct activation of PMS by HA, the redox cycles acceleration on the surface of CuFeO by HA, and the synergistic action of the low valence Fe and Cu species in CuFeO for PMS activation. The efficacy of other organic pollutants removal was further validated in bio-treated landfill leachate through removal performance and toxicity assessment.

Landfill leachate treatment plants (LLTPs) harbor a vast reservoir of uncultured microbes, yet limited studies have systematically unraveled their functional potentials within LLTPs. Combining 36 metagenomic and 18 metatranscriptomic datasets from a full-scale LLTP, we unveiled a double-edged sword role of unknown species in leachate biotreatment and environmental implication. We identified 655 species-level genome bins (SGBs) spanning 47 bacterial and 3 archaeal phyla, with 75.
