Abstract  
The municipal landfill is considered to be a potential source of different environmental contaminants derived from  
consumer goods, including perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs). Twenty-four leachate, surface water samples and twenty-  
four sediment samples collected at Tay Mo landfill (Hanoi, Vietnam) and surrounding areas were analysed for sixteen  
PFCs. Total concentrations of PFCs in leachate and surface water ranged from 103 to 328 ng/L (mean: 161 ng/L) at Tay  
Mo landfill, 19.1-22.4 ng/L (mean: 20.7 ng/L) in ponds nearby the landfill, 5.19-6.96 ng/L (mean: 5.96 ng/L) in Nhue  
River around the landfill, 5.57-12.7 ng/L (mean: 9.00 ng/L) in the upstream and 3.81-11.5 ng/L (mean: 7.14 ng/L) in the  
downstream. The total concentrations of PFCs in landfill sediment which ranged from 3.52 to 6.70 ng/g (mean: 5 ng/g)  
was 3-4 times higher than those in sediment taken from Nhue River and the ponds around the landfill. The dominating  
detected compounds were short-chain perfluorinated alkyl substances like PFOA, PFHxA, PFHpA in water, and PFOS,  
PFBS in sediment.

Leachates, surface water and sediment samples  
were collected at the following locations: (i) At the  
landfill: 04 points (TM1, TM2, TM3, TM4) -  
drainage from the landfill; (ii) ponds next to landfill:  
02 points (TM5, TM6); (iii) Nhue River around the  
landfill (NS01, NS02, NS03, NS04); (iv) the  
upstream of Nhue River (NU01, NU02, NU03,  
NU04); (v) the downstream of Nhue River (ND01 to  
ND10). Sampling locations are shown in figure 1.  
Total collected samples were 24 water samples and  
24 sediment samples.  
2. MATERIALS AND METHODS  
2.1. Studied area and sampling location  
The Tay Mo landfill with an area of 4.9 ha which  
located about 10 km west of the center of Hanoi was  
operated from 1997 to 2000 and received about  
1,400 tons of waste per day.[9] In the 1990s, the  
primary treatment and disposal method for the city's  
domestic waste was landfills. At those landfills,  
leachate was hardly treated or only treated by old

PFCAs and PFASs were analyzed on LC-MS/MS samples between Tay Mo closed landfill (in this  
8040 (Shimadzu, Japan). The chromatographic study) and Nam Son active landfill (363 ng/L in the  
separation was achieved with a Poroshell 120 EC- study of J. W. Kim[8]). By contrast, the total  
concentrations of PFCs in the sediment at TM1 were  
lower than other points. At present, information on  
the occurrence of PFCs in sediment samples in  
landfills has been limited in Vietnam. N. H. Lam  
reported that concentrations of the target PFCs in  
sediments obtained from the discharge drain at a  
landfill in HCMC ranged from 1.31 to 1.75 ng/g  
d.w,[4] only equal to one-third of these levels found  
in this study.  
In leachate, perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids  
(PFCAs) were found at higher concentrations than  
perfluoroalkyl sulfonates (PFCASs) (p < 0.05) due  
to the better solubility in water of the former. Short-  
chain PFCAs (C5-C8) were detected at much higher  
frequencies than long-chain PFCAs (p < 0.05), and  
long-chain PFAAs with more than 11 carbon atoms  
were hardly found. Among sixteen PFCs, PFOA,  
PFHxA, and PFHpA were the most common  
compounds, with the contribution to total PFCs in  
the leachate of 31.7 %, 28.2 % and 16.3 %,  
respectively. PFOA which had concentrations in the  
range of 28.9 and 110 ng/L in wastewater at Tay Mo  
landfill were significantly higher than other PFCs, it  
is notable that this compound was always detected in  
surface water in Vietnam.[4,12] The most significant  
predominance of PFOA in leachate in this work is  
consistent with other studies in the world.[6] Of the  
C18 analytical column (150 mm 2.1 mm 2.7  
µm) with the mobile phase A containing 2 mM  
ammonium acetate and methanol (9:1, v/v) and  
methanol as solvent B. Solvent gradient program  
was set up as following steps. The mobile phase was  
initially 30 % B and 70 % A for 2 min and then  
changed to 95 % B and 5 % A in 16 min and held  
for 4 min. At the end of the analysis, the mobile  
phase was changed to the initial composition (30 %  
B) for 3 min; flow rate was 0.3 mL/min. The PFCs  
were quantified and qualified using tandem mass  
spectrometry where the precursor ions were  
fragmented into product ions. The target compounds  
were ionized by the Electrospray Ionization (ESI)  
o
technique with DL temperature of 250 C and the  
nitrogen and dry air at the flow rate of 3 and 15  
L/min, respectively. The calibration curve for each  
congener was constructed at concentrations of 0.1;  
0.5; 2.0; 5.0; 10; 20 ppb. The correlation coefficient  
of the calibration curve (R2) was over 0.997.  
QA/QC: The mixture of surrogate standards was  
added to each sample prior to sample pre-treatment  
for the purpose of determining the recovery efficiency  
of PFCs in each run. A blank- and a matrix-spiked  
samples were always analysed performed in the same  
batch. The recovery efficiency of PFCs in water

higher than the PFOS concentrations in municipal

In fact, data on PFCs in sediments in the landfill

landfill runoff in HCMC,[4] than those reported in  
the landfills in Norway. In comparison with data in

the lower total concentration of PFCs.

Tay Mo landfill, Hanoi has been closed for nearly 20  
years, but the previous technical conditions for  
landfills have not been adequately implemented,  
even now there are still areas where open-air piled  
waste has not been completely decomposed. The  
total concentrations of PFCs observed in leachate is  
several hundred ng/L and many times higher than  
those in the surrounding surface water in Nhue River  
where mainly received PFCs from untreated  
municipal wastewater sources (at sub - several ng/L  
levels). The results of this study showed that  
leachate collected from Tay Mo landfill affected the  
level of PFCs in surface water of closed water  
bodies like nearby ponds and lakes. As for large  
surrounding flows such as Nhue River, this effect  
can be neglected because the leachate has a  
negligible volume compared to the river flow.
