Landfill liners and covers make critical use of these geosynthetics.

We can provide you with a critique of landfill liners if you are interested.

Of primary concern is the contact between soil and landfill liner, as this is usually considered to be a weak point in the system.

And if there are any problems that happen with the landfill liner system its very visible and very easy to repair.

The tension in a landfill liner rises significantly during an earthquake, and can lead to stretching or tearing of the material.

This is particularly a concern in the construction of covers or installation of landfill liners prior to waste filling.

The weight of waste is important in the analysis of landfill liner puncture and pipe crushing during an earthquake.

An examination of the effects of ageing on the performance of geosynthtic landfill liners.

A major application of this type of testing is to observe the behavior of landfill liners during ground shaking.

Key words: landfill liners, mine waste covers, soil-water characteristic curve, pore-size distribution.

Attenuation of organic micropollutants by geochemically designed high attenuation landfill liners.

That's why her students were recently writing fables about landfill liners talking to pieces of garbage, and about beavers recycling litter for their dams.

The use of hydraulic conductivity (k) of soil material as the sole basis for sanitary landfill liner design is reviewed.

Key words: drill mud waste, sorption, VOC, diffusion, landfill liner.

Conventional landfill liners employ a membrane made from high-density polyethylene sheets, which are welded together to form a continuous barrier.

This 'bubbling' effect can damage landfill liners that have been installed to help keep landfill contaminants from polluting local surface and ground water.

For example, you should consider the degradation of synthetic landfill liners in assessing the long-term flux of pollutants discharged from the landfill.

Landfills that were established before landfill liner technology was well established often leak their unprocessed leachate into underlying aquifers.

It overlays a sand aquifer, using a single engineered landfill liner to prevent leachate from entering the aquifer below.

It would be a municipal solid waste (MSW) facility on fractured bedrock using hydraulic containment and no landfill liner.

Hydraulic conductivity and diffusion monitoring of the Keele Valley Landfill liner, Maple, Ontario.

A landfill liner, or composite liner, is intended to be a low a permeable barrier, which is laid down under engineered landfill sites.

For a well-engineered compacted clay landfill liner, diffusive transport through the liner is the main mass transport mechanism from the landfill.

However, clay's low permeability means it cannot be used in flow-through PRBs, but have been proposed for use in slurry walls, landfill liners, and containment barriers.

In many applications, such as design of mine waste covers and landfill liners, the unsaturated permeability function, k(h), is often derived theoretically from the measured SWCC.
