Abstract

Leachate water from sanitary landfills represents one of the most complex global environmental
problems. This paper examines the possibility of using aluminosilicate material, pyrophyllite, from
the Parsovići deposit, as an adsorbent. It was researched the influence of two granulations of
pyrophyllite (0-53 μm and 0-100 μm) on the degree of adsorption of heavy metals (Fe, Ni, Mn) from
leachate water from the municipal landfill "Desetine", Tuzla. The adsorption experiment was
performed using the Batch method, depending on the contact time between the adsorbent and the
adsorbate, the mixing speed, and the mass of the adsorbent, pyrophyllite, through two treatments.
The results indicate a higher efficiency of the finer fraction of pyrophyllite, and in the competition
of the three examined metals, iron is completely removed in the first treatment with both
granulations and then nickel with finer granulation and manganese with coarser. After the first
treatment, the unpleasant smell was removed, which is certainly a consequence of the removal of
ammonia compounds as the most abundant compounds in leachate water. In these pioneering
researches, pyrophyllite proved to be effective, and at the same time, it is
