Trends And Gaps On New Emerging Pollutants (Neps) In Landfill Leachate Over The Past 10 Years (2010-2020)

| description | New Emerging pollutants (NEPs) are substances that have recently occurred
widely in the environment and recognised as a possible environmental or public health
risk. In the new era, even with the new evolving technologies, NEPs still exists, which
merit appropriate control. However, there is no sufficient information to assess the risk
of NEPs. Landfilling is the most conventional method in disposing of municipal solid
waste for the past many years. One of its major drawbacks is the production of highly
contaminated leachate. Hence various types of alarming pollutants have evolved through
leachate over the years. This study was set to conduct a quantitative approach in
reviewing and analysing various past and present studies related to NEPs in landfill
leachate. This research will involved a combination of Critical literature review (CLR)
and Systematic literature review (SLR) based research, concluding results on NEPs from
various studies. It was found from the review that NEPs in leachate consist of different
compositions, a wide range of concentrations, and could be treated by various means.
The leachate treatment for NEPs is mostly adapted from existing wastewater treatment
technology. There is a growing trend in the discharge of NEPs in landfill leachate over
the past 10 years. However, there are still gaps in the treatment technology as most of
the current systems are not meant for advanced parameters such as NEPs. These results
had provided future perspectives on the management of NEPs in landfill leachate as
supported by various inputs from scholars in the field. |
