I am going to use some mineral adsorbents such as zeolite, anthracite, talc and pumice in a Cubic cylinder to improve leachate quality.
Do you have any ideas about the leachate flow rate through the adsorbents and the height of the adsorbents in the prototype?

The characteristics of the leachate has be know as well as the attributes of the minerals to be used for its removal. The various attenuation mechanism in the course of the leachate migration should also be considered. Movement of the leachate within the lattice of the minerals is also Paramount.

Dear Professor Amadi Akobundu Nwanosike,
Many thanks for the information. I am going to set the inlet discharge (Q) ar 1 lit per hour to pass through the adsorbents. Do you think it is good or should I consider a different inlet charge?
Thanks again,
Ehsan
