AC adsorption is a physico-chemical process that has been reported as an effective method for removing high molecular weight refractory organic matter from landfill leachate [8]. A number of unique characteristics such as high adsorption capacity, microporous structure, extended surface area, high degree of surface reactivity [9], thermo-stability, low acid/base reactivity and ability for broad range pollutants removal makes AC as one of the best filtration media in the world [10]. However, the major limitations of AC utilization in leachate treatment process are owing to the high production cost and expensive carbonaceous material [11]. Thus, the use of non-conventional material such as
