Caracterización e implementación de un método fisicoquímico para el tratamiento del lixiviado proveniente del relleno sanitario el carrasco - Characterization and implementation of a physicochemical method for leachate treatment from the landfill carrasco

The Carrasco Landfill is located at the northeastern region of Colombia in the municipality of Bucaramanga, the leachate is generated by the degradation of the wastes from this city and its metropolitan areas leads to a heavily polluted stream “The Church” located a few meters this stuffing as well as underground water resources that surround the filling. It is imperative the creation of an immediate treatment of leachate using reactive and accessible technology to our region and that this problem represents a serious environmental impact.This paper presents a viable alternative because of its low cost and high efficiency to be a physico-chemical treatment for the leachate from the site of final disposal of solid waste results in the laboratory show that it is possible to mitigate the negative environmental impact of water percolated close to water.
