BIOLOGICAL AND CHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND AS INDICATORS OF ORGANIC POLLUTION OF LEACHATE AND PIEZOMETRIC WATER FROM SEMI CONTROLLED, NON SANITARY LANDFILL IN NOVI SAD, SERBIA

Landfill leachate is one of the most serious problems of municipal solid waste landfills. Leachate is generated as a result of the percolation of water and other liquid through any waste and the squeezing of the waste due to its weight. Since all natural waterways contain bacteria and nutrient, almo...

Summary:Landfill leachate is one of the most serious problems of municipal solid waste landfills. Leachate is generated as a result of the percolation of water and other liquid through any waste and the squeezing of the waste due to its weight. Since all natural waterways contain bacteria and nutrient, almost any waste compounds introduced into such waterways will initiate biochemical reactions. In August and September of 2008. Research was conducted to determine composition and quantity of waste that is disposed at semi controlled, non sanitary, municipal waste landfill in Novi Sad. The leachate samples and samples from piezometers were collected from collecting channel and 6 piezometers in municipal solid waste landfill in Novi Sad in January and May of 2010.
