Pattern of Characteristics of Leachate Generation from Municipal Solid Waste Landfill by Lysimeter Experiment
Kasam, Sarto, Siti Syamsiah, and Agus Prasetya
Abstract—Management of municipal solid waste in Indonesia
is majority disposed to landfill. The are some problem on landfill
in Yogyakarta namely are scavenger, cattle cow and leachate
generation. The characteristics of landfill leachate generation
will occur dynamically depending on the various factors
including: precipitation (rainfall), evapotranspiration, water
content of waste, density, field capacity, waste composition, age
of waste in the landfill. This research aims to identify the
characteristics of leachate generation from landfills by
simulation of landfill. It was conducted by two lysimeter with
2.4 m high and 0.7 m diameter. The refuse were used as samples
taken from the Piyungan landfill, Bantul regency, Special
Province of Yogyakarta. Characteristic of Leachate is expressed
by BOD, COD, TDS parameters. The results showed that the
characteristics decay of the leachate generation from landfill
with recirculated faster than without recirculated. The
mathematical equations of exponential form to describe the
characteristics pattern of leachate with BOD, COD and TDS
parameters. Peak concentration for BOD = 7118.8 mg/L and
7411 mg/L, COD = 11232 mg/L and 1184 mg/L, TDS = 3920.9
mg/L and 4443.1 mg/L lysimeter-1 and lysimeter-2 respectively.
Validation was performed using statistical criteria of goodness
of fit Chi-Square with a confidence level of 0.1 shown still meet
Chi-Square standards.
