A method of processing landfill leachate by use of a membrane separation process is disclosed. Specifically, the following steps are taken to process landfill leachate: collecting landfill leachate in a receptacle suitable to hold said landfill leachate; treating said landfill leachate with one or mo re water soluble polymers, wherein said water soluble polymers are selected from the group consisting of: amphoteric polymers; cationic polymers; zwitte rionic polymers; and a combination thereof; optionally mixing said water sol uble polymers with said landfill leachate; passing said treated landfill lea chate through a membrane, wherein said membrane is an ultrafiltration membra ne or a microfiltration membrane; and optionally back-flushing said membrane to remove solids from the membrane surface.
