Öğe Evaluating the performance of an electro-membrane bioreactor in treatment of young leachate(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2020) Akkaya, Gulizar Kurtoglu; Bilgili, Mehmet SinanLeachate generated from landfill, typically contains high amounts of different pollutions. Its composition may vary according to the origin and age of landfill. In this study, the performance of a laboratory-scale submerged electro-membrane bioreactor (SMEBR), an integrated process consisting of an electro-coagulation unit and a conventional submerged membrane bioreactor (SMBR) for treating young leachate was evaluated. SMEBR and SMBR as control reactor were operated simultaneously to compare. In SMEBR, perforated aluminum (Al) electrodes were used. SMEBR was operated under electrokinetic conditions at a current density of 24 mA/cm(2) for 50 days: at 180 s/day for 25 days (Stage I) and 360 s/day for 25 days (Stage II). Chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N), color and metal removal performances were evaluated for both reactors. Also, the membrane fouling was examined by monitoring the change in transmembrane pressure over time. The concentration of dissolved oxygen (DO) was determined using the oxygen uptake rate in a period covering SMEBR operating conditions. Based on the results obtained, positive effects of electrical field SMEBR were clearly observed at Stage II. At the Stage II, the removal efficiency of COD was 6-15% higher in SMEBR compared to SMBR. The average NH3-N removal efficiencies in SMEBR and SMBR were 86 and 78%, respectively. Following the introduction of electrical current to SMEBR, DO concentrations were measured about 0.8 mg/L lower than SMBR; however, nitrification was not affected adversely. Additionally, chemical properties of SMEBR and SMBR membranes surfaces were characterized by using the Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy.Öğe Investigation of Leachate Characteristics in Field-Scale Landfill Test Cells(Springer International Publishing Ag, 2019) Top, Selin; Akkaya, Gulizar Kurtoglu; Demir, Ahmet; Yildiz, Senol; Balahorli, Vahit; Bilgili, Mehmet SinanThis paper evaluates leachate recirculation and the impact of aeration on waste decomposition rate by means of leachate quality and quantity in field-scale landfill test cells. Four landfill test cells with the dimensions of 20 m x 40 m x 5 m were constructed in Komurcuoda Sanitary Landfill, Istanbul, Turkey. Solid wastes representing Istanbul Asian side waste characteristics were landfilled in the test cells and the test cells were operated simulating anaerobic landfilling (AN-1), leachate-recirculated anaerobic landfilling (AN-2), semi-aerobic landfilling (A-1) and aerobic landfilling (A-2) methods. Alternative landfilling methods for accelerating solid waste stabilization in landfills were investigated by means of leachate quantity and quality. The study indicated that aeration (forced or natural) and leachate recirculation accelerate the biodegradation rate of the waste. High biodegradation rates of MSW eventually provide a reduction in the contaminant life span of the landfill and decrease the cost of long-term monitoring. Results show an important and rapid development in leachate quality with a reduction in the treatment costs in aerobic landfill sites. Many important advantages can thus be achieved especially in the aerobic or semi-aerobic landfill sites noting that leachate recirculation seems to be an effective solution to reduce the stabilization time and provide in situ treatment of leachate when the aerobic landfilling cannot be applicable.
