Abstract:
Through analyzing and detecting the leaching pollutant (COD) in two bioreactors, anaerobic phased solid digester system and leachate direct-recirculating landfill, the changing rule of municipal solid waste and the characteristics of methanogenesis were studied. The results showed that anaerobic phased solid digester system accelerated the process of degrading municipal solid waste and stabilizing landfill site. The relationship between the leaching pollutant (COD) and refuse age was logarithmic linear correlation. More than 80% of biogas in volume occured in the methanogenisis bioreactor, the methane content in which was 55%-69%. The preferable volumetric COD loading rate of the methanogenisis bioreactor was 6.5-7.5 g/(L x d).
