Abstract: This study describes a new method to perform the kinetic study of toxic pollutants decomposition by ozone in landfill leachate using a novel numerical adaptive method based on the classical least square method. The leachate was obtained from the Mexico City waste sanitary landfill (Bordo Poniente) and was treated by ozonation after a coagulation treatment with Fe2(SO4)3. For the partial identification of the initial organic matter composition, intermediates and final products of ozonation, the extraction of the initial and ozonated leachate with benzene, chloroform : methanol (2 : 1) and hexane was carried out, and then the extracts were analysed with a gas chromatography.
