Included activities starts

The activity starts with receiving wastewater at the gate of the treatment facility. Collection and transportation of wastewater to the treatment plant are not included.

Included activities ends

The activity ends with the treatment of wastewater and the specific discharge of waste into the environment. It includes expenditures for wastewater treatment at waste treatment plants and related infrastructure of the facility. Emissions from any sludge digestion, biogas generation, and utilization (noting specific wastewater components) are also included.

Description

This dataset represents the treatment process of leachate generated from incineration activities. It is applicable to Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi, Shandong, Jilin, Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Shaanxi, and Henan provinces. The treatment technologies primarily represent aerobic biological treatment, activated sludge process, A-O, A2-O, oxidation ditch, MBR, SBR, and biofilm processes.

Process Description

Leachate from incineration refers to a type of high-strength organic wastewater generated during the incineration process of waste. This leachate mainly originates from the following sources: the inherent moisture in the waste; liquids produced by the decomposition of waste through microbial activity during storage and fermentation; and rainwater introduced during waste collection and transportation.
