  • Comparison of Physicochemical Methods to Remove Arsenic from Landfill Leachate and Gas Condensate
    Comparison of Physicochemical Methods to Remove Arsenic from Landfill Leachate and Gas Condensate Surbhi Malik A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Civil Engineering University of Washington 2020 Committee: Gregory Korshin Michael Dodd Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Civil and Environmental Engineering © Copyright 2020 Surbhi Malik University of Washington Abstract Comparison of Physicochemical Methods to Remove Arsenic from Landfill Leachate and Gas Condensate Surbhi Malik Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Gregory Korshin Civil and Environmental Engineering Arsenic is an important contaminant widely found in municipal solid waste (MSW). It has been accumulating in landfills and its concentrations in the landfill leachate have been observed to increase in several sites, notably at the Cedar Hills Regional Landfill Facility (CHRLF) located in the State of Washington. The chemistry and mobility of arsenic are unusual since it involves an array of solutes, gaseous arsines, and solids whose formation is greatly affected by landfill conditions that are dependent on MSW composition, hydrology, and other site-specific factors. The reducing conditions in a landfill result in intense microbial activity that generates landfill gas (LFG), LFG condensates, and leachate all of which can contain arsenic. The biological activity also results in the formation of methylated and sulfur-containing arsenic complexes that tend to be resistant to the conventional methods of removal. This thesis evaluated the effectiveness of conventional and emerging technology particularly micro-electrolysis (ME) in the removal of arsenic from landfill leachate and LFG condensate. ME uses a combination of adsorption and zero-valent iron (ZVI) driven reduction that results in the immobilization of arsenic.
