This study investigated some sources and elimination mechanisms of phenylmethylsiloxanes in landfill leachates. During a 20-day leaching experiment for electronic wastes collected from one Chinese landfill, significant release (4.9 ng/L to 1.3 μg/L) of cis-/trans-2,4,6-triphenyl-2,4,6-trimethylcyclotrisiloxanes (cis-P3 and trans-P3) and cis-/trans-2,4,6,8-tetraphenyl-2,4,6,8-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxanes (cis-P4 and trans-P4a,b,c) in simulated leachates was found. From January 2017 to December 2018, P3 and P4 isomers were detected in raw leachates from active cells [
