Case study

3,200 m³/d Leachate and 640 m³/d Concentrate NF Treatment Project

This project has separate duties of 3,200 m³/d for landfill leachate and 640 m³/d for concentrate. Nanofiltration splitting and multistage concentrate treatment organize the permeate and concentrate streams for subsequent handling.

Project overview

This project has separate duties of 3,200 m³/d for landfill leachate and 640 m³/d for concentrate. Nanofiltration splitting and multistage concentrate treatment organize the permeate and concentrate streams for subsequent handling.

Plum supplied the complete process systems described for this project.

Process route

Ultrafiltration pretreatment and leachate NF, with two-stage NF treatment of concentrate

Process roles

The project uses a nanofiltration route rather than RO. The two capacities describe different process duties and are not added together as the system feed rate.
