In this study, laboratory experiments were conducted to compare the efficacy of several H₂O₂‐based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs): UV–Fenton, UV–H₂O₂, and Fenton reagent, to treat landfill leachate with the objective of removing COD and improving the leachate’s overall biodegradability (evaluated in terms of BOD₅/COD ratio). The results indicated that, at optimized experimental conditions of 25 °C, pH 4.0, 4000 mg L⁻¹ H₂O₂, 30 mg L⁻¹ Fe(II) (for UV–Fenton and Fenton ) and 60 min reaction time, the UV–Fenton system showed the highest COD removal. The COD removal rate in the H₂O₂‐based AOPs was strongly dependent on the concentration of H₂O₂ and the pH value. Temperature had little effect on overall COD removal rate in the Fenton and Fenton‐like systems. All three systems would result in a significant increase in the ratio of BOD₅/COD, from 0.17 to about 0.60, at the applied H₂O₂ dosage of 4000 mg L⁻¹. The increase in biodegradability of the AOP leachate indicates that these AOPs would be beneficial for the subsequent biological treatment process. The UV–Fenton process was found to be the most effective approach of these H₂O₂‐based AOPs to enhance the biodegradability and eliminate the colour of the leachate.
