  • What is the chemical composition of landfill leachate?
  • The chemical composition of the leachate depends mainly on the type of waste stored in the landfill, but also on the degree of water infiltration, the degree of residual hydration, technology used on the landfill and the degree of waste degradation (Christensen et al. 2001; Torretta et al. 2017; Yao 2017 ).
  • What compounds are common to all three landfills?
  • Among the compounds common to all three landfills were plasticizers (phthalates, benzenesulfonamides), phosphate esters, substituted phenols, chlorinated phenols, phenolic antioxidants and siloxanes as well as the compounds formed during the degradation of organic wastes (dihydro-dioxin, pyrazines and several sulphur-containing odorous volatiles).
  • How are leachates from Göteborg landfills characterised?
  • Leachates from three municipal landfills in the Göteborg area of western Sweden were characterised in terms of their content of individual organic compounds. Two of the investigated landfills were still in use during the time of this study. The third landfill was closed down in the mid-seventies.
  • Are dioxanes found in leachates?
  • Dioxanes and dioxolans found in the leachates have not been previously reported. Compounds originated from previously disposed oil contaminated wastes dominate the leachate from an old closed landfill.
