Leachate Treatment Plants
Leachate treatment plants are facilities that clean water contaminated by liquids that seep through waste in landfills. This liquid, called leachate, contains harmful substances and needs to be treated before being released into the environment. The treatment process typically involves filtering out solids, removing pollutants through biological, chemical, and physical methods, and ensuring the water meets safety standards. Properly treating leachate prevents pollution of soil and waterways, protecting ecosystems and public health. These plants are essential for managing landfill waste responsibly and reducing environmental impact.
