3.5.1 RESULTS OF PHYSICAL CHARACTERISATION OF WASTE

Leachate Sampling:
Leachate is the liquid generated from the waste due to moisture content of the organic
waste, infiltration from precipitation, surface water flow etc.

Areas near landfills have a greater possibility of groundwater contamination because
of the potential pollution source of leachate originating from the nearby dumping site.
Such contamination of groundwater results in a substantial risk to local groundwater
resource user and to the natural environment

Characteristics of this leachate are also required for the consideration of monitoring
the existing and post-biomining fates into environment. Procedure of the sampling is
explained below:

a. The leachate samples were collected from the site as per direction of engineer in
charge.
b. Minimum 2 no. of samples were collected from different location as per the site
condition.
