The high polluting potential and variable content of the landfill leachate makes it a significant source of environmental contamination. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) such as Fenton process, arises as leachate treatment. Application of response surface methodology (RSM) from previous literatures evaluates the synergistic effects of independent variables to optimize the Fenton process. This paper presents systematic review on articles published from 2005 to 2015 reported on optimum conditions of Fenton treatment landfill leachate treatment using RSM. Papers were selected from different database according to defined inclusion criteria and then, evaluated. The best conditions identified were: pH around 3, [H2O2]/[Fe2+] molar ratio from 2.38 to 24.00, [H2O2]/[CODraw leachate] mass ratio around 1 and reaction time from 30 min to 331.2 min. All models presented R2 > 0.75, indicating a good correlation between the experimental data and the values predicted by the models.

As an advanced oxidative processes, the Fenton process is receiving popularity as a wastewater treatment technique that can be used for hazardous landfill leachate. The treatment is simple, yet involves complex interactions between the affecting parameters including reaction time, H2O2/Fe2+ ratio, pH, and iron (II) ion concentration. Hence, the purpose of this present study was to analyze the factors affecting landfill leachate treatment as well as their interaction by means of response surface methodology (RSM) with central composite design. The independent variables were reaction time, H2O2/Fe2+ ratio, iron (II) ion concentration, and pH, and the dependent variable (response) was color-removal percentage. The optimum treatment conditions for pH, H2O2/Fe2+ ratio, Fe2+ concentration, and reaction time were 8.36, 3.32, 964.95 mg/L, and 50.15 min, respectively. The model predicted 100% color removal in optimum conditions, which was close to that obtained from the experiment (97.68%). In conclusion, the optimized Fenton process using the RSM approach promotes efficient landfill leachate treatment that is even higher than that already reported.
