What is it about?
Micro-Peat (M-P) is one of organic soil which have a potential as low-cost adsorbent that partially replaced of activated carbon (AC) for removal of organic and inorganic contaminants from stabilized landfill leachate.

Why is it important?
Our finding define that combination of M-P and AC showed the greater effectiveness for organic and inorganic matters from leachate at a considerably lower cost.
Perspectives
The use of commercially AC in this study could therefore partially substituted be in place of expensive adsorbent such as micro-peat due to its availability, removal efficiency and low-cost. This would be of benefit not only to the manufacturing industry in terms of minimizing cost of organic and inorganic treatment, but also to improve profit and furthermore to minimize the impact on the environment.
