Popis: The composition of leachates is very variable and rich in toxic compounds, which requires treatment before discharge into the natural environment in order to avoid their impact on the environment and/or human health and to comply with the requirements of regulatory discharge standards in the natural environment. Among the parameters indicating pollution by leachates, we have COD, BOD5, conductivity, pH, the presence of ammonium ions, nitrite, nitrate, chloride, orthophosphate, etc. This study presents the results of synthetic leachate orthophosphate adsorption tests on bentonite clays. For the determination of the orthophosphate concentration in the synthetic leachate, before and after adsorption, we applied the method of Ultra-Violet adsorption spectroscopy. The adsorption capacity of bentonite, the amount needed and the removal efficiency were determined. The orthophosphate adsorption yield on bentonite reaches up to 32.6 % for 5 g/L of bentonite stirred for 4 hours and exceeds 39,19 % after 24 hours of stirring.
