In landfills, after several days or even years of garbage decomposition, accompanied by precipitation, surface water, and groundwater infiltration, brown black garbage leachate is produced, commonly known as "garbage soup".
The 2008 version of the standard for leachate from garbage can be called the "strictest in the world". Not only is it stricter than similar standards in most developed countries, but it is also stricter than other industries such as chemical and pharmaceutical industries in China. From first tier cities to small county towns, landfill sites and even regulatory authorities are tackling the challenge of how to meet emission standards under very strict national standards?
The environmental protection water circle has selected 24 cases of garbage leachate treatment projects for everyone. The detailed explanation is as follows:
