The factors that may affect short-term leakage through composite liners are examined. It is shown that the leakage through composite liners is only a very small fraction of that expected for either...

Short- and long-term leakage through composite liners. The 7th Arthur Casagrande Lecture1 1This lecture was presented at the 14th Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, Toronto, Ont., October 2011, and a pre-print appeared in the conference proceedings.

Experiments were conducted to evaluate the hydraulic conductivity of geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) containing granular sodium bentonite that were permeated with coal combustion product (C...

Hydraulic Conductivity of Geosynthetic Clay Liners with Sodium Bentonite to Coal Combustion Product Leachates

Hydraulic performance of geosynthetic clay liners to sulfuric acid solutions

Geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) are frequently used in lieu of, or as an augmentation to, compacted clay liners as secondary hydraulic barriers in municipal solid waste containment facilities. GCLs are lately being assessed for use in industrial and mining applications, not only for the temporary storage of process waters and permanent disposal of tailings, but also beneath heap leach pads, where their performance will be subjected to loads, hydraulic heads and leachate chemistries outside the normal conditions found in conventional municipal solid waste landfills for which they were designed. This paper considers recent limited research assessing the compatibility of GCLs to leachates having extreme chemistry. Extreme chemistry is here defined as strongly alkaline (pH > 12), strongly acidic (pH 1 M). Based on the limited research available, GCLs cannot be expected to perform for the long-term when in contact with strongly acidic leachates; however there exists some indic...

Overview of performance compatibility issues of GCLs with respect to leachates of extreme chemistry

The sensitivity of sodium bentonite (Na-B) to adverse chemical interactions has spurred development of enhanced bentonites (EBs) for geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) that provide superior properties...

Enhanced bentonites for containment of inorganic waste leachates by GCLs

This study investigates the performance of bentonite components of geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) when exposed to aggressive leachates using the fluid loss test and provides a possible quick metho...
