Abstract

Background: Open dumps cause leachate pollution so that the complex composition of leachate including organic and anotorganic chemical content gets more attention for processing. Coffee grounds and silica sand have the potential to become filter media in reducing Fe pollutants in leachate at final disposal sites (TPA) because of their efficiency in removing heavy metals.
