摘要
In order to explore the source characteristics as well as the temporal and spatial variations in odor pollution in municipal waste landfills, gas samples were collected from a landfill in an eastern coastal area of China throughout winter and summer. The total concentration of malodorous substances reached 60 000 μg•m-3 . There were more types of odor pollutants detected in summer than in winter, the average concentration was 30-300 times higher than that in winter, and the concentration of sulfur compounds increased by 4. 7-136.7 times in summer. Oxygenated compounds had the highest concentration, and the total concentration of sulfur compounds accounted for less than 10% of malodorous substances. However, sulfur compounds contributed more than 90% to the theoretical odor concentration. Sulfur compounds such as methyl mercaptan and propane mercaptan were the key odorants in the landfill. After the landfill unit was covered, the concentration of odorous substances and the theoretical odor concentration on the surface of the landfill showed an increasing trend with time, indicating that the covering had a certain odor barrier effect; however, the landfill unit still had a large odor release potential. The similarity analysis showed that the odorous gas accumulated in the unit with temporary cover and without an exhaust system could be released to the environment through the overlapping gap of the membrane and the location of membrane rupture, resulting in more serious odor pollution around the landfill at night than that during the day. © 2022 Science Press.
