Abstract
The slow stabilization process of landfill had brought obstacles to urbanization. The paper investigated the efficacy and mechanism of micro-aeration intensity for landfill stabilization. The micro-aeration intensity of 0.05 L/(h·kg) resulted in a significant increase of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) in the hydrolysis stage, and the NH4+-N concentration was reduced by 22.1 %. At the end of landfill, VFAs were rapidly degraded and organic matter was reduced from 36 % to 16 %, which was 55.5 % more efficient than the control group. In addition, the community succession and structure of bacteria and archaea were analyzed. The micro-aeration intensity of 0.05 L/(h·kg) increased the abundance of hydrolyzing functional bacteria such as Pseudomonas and Bacillus, and allowed methanogenic bacteria such as Methanobacterium and Methanothrix to gradually establish oxygen tolerance in the microaerobic environment. The appropriate micro-aeration intensity can accelerate the stabilization process of landfill, which has environmental and economic benefits.
