Abstract

There is a need for more efficient treatment methods for purification of leachate from municipal landfills. The leachate can contain toxic compounds that can be harmful to organisms in the surroundings. There have recently been several reports of dead fishes in lakes situated close to landfills. In a joint project named "LAQUA" between Sweden and Lithuania efforts will be taken to find suitable technology for treatment of leachate water from municipal landfills.
