Abstrakt: In physico-chemical treatment, the separation of suspended particles from the liquid phase is usually accomplished by coagulation, flocculation and sedimentation. Coagulation-flocculation processes have been widely used as alternative treatment to remove leachate pollutants such as BOD, COD, TSS, heavy metals, colour, and nitrogen compounds prior to other treatment methods. It is often coupled with treatment methods like biological process, chemical oxidation, adsorption or filtration to achieve desirable effluent quality. In spite of being economical, the dewatering and disposal of the precipitated sludge could be laborious and time-consuming. In this manuscript, brief discussions on coagulant and coagulants aid in landfill leachate treatment is discussed with respect to their mechanism.
