leachate monitoring

Leachate monitoring involves checking the liquid that drains from landfills or waste disposal sites, known as leachate. This liquid can contain harmful substances from decomposing waste. Monitoring is crucial to ensure that leachate does not contaminate nearby soil and water sources, which could pose health and environmental risks. Regular tests are conducted to track its composition, volume, and movement, enabling operators to manage and treat the leachate properly. By monitoring leachate, we protect ecosystems and public health while ensuring that waste management practices are safe and effective.
