Abstract

The influence of local HYDROGEOLOGY on NATURAL ATTENUATION of contaminants from LANDFILL LEACHATEs in shallow aquifer underlying the active Olusosun LANDFILL base in Lagos was investigated. In addition, the level of groundwater contamination in the vicinity of the LANDFILL and of LEACHATE MIGRATION pattern in groundwater down gradient of the LANDFILL base was equally assessed. LANDFILL LEACHATE and groundwater samples were collected and analyzed and characterized. Physico-chemical analyses of sampled water followed standard analytical methods. Analytical results showed a measurable impact of LEACHATE outflows on groundwater quality. Elevated levels of anions: nitrate, chloride and sulphate in the groundwater body and heavy metals: Cr3, Cd and Cu, were detected at measurable levels in groundwater down gradient of the LANDFILL location without any particular attenuation pattern. The MIGRATION pattern and dispersion of LEACHATEs down gradient, 750 m away from the LANDFILL location are irregular and difficult to predict as depicted by levels of contaminants present in groundwater. The study highlighted the importance of soil stratigraphy beneath the LANDFILL base as an important factor in the NATURAL ATTENUATION of LEACHATE constituents in the groundwater body.
