Geosynthetics are widely used in waste containment facilities, as these facilities have used
literally all types of geosynthetics in all identified functions (eg, filtration, reinforcement, etc.) …

Pyrolysis of polypropylene (PP) and high density polyethylene (HDPE) into fuel like products
was investigated over temperature range of 250–400° C. The product yields as a function of …

This lecture describes the latest findings with respect to the long-term performance of
modern municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill barrier systems. Field data relating to the …

The protection of groundwater and surface water from contamination by the escape of
contaminant from waste disposal is now an important consideration in many countries of the …

Abstract Design-and construction-related factors that affect leakage through geomembranes,
used either alone or in a composite liner, are examined. The development, detection, and …

A complete characterization detailing the intricate and complex response of geomaterials
remains a challenging task that can only be realized on a partial basis via a careful drilling …

The latest findings regarding the long-term performance and service life of HDPE
geomembrane (GM) samples exposed to air, water and leachate are presented based on …

The implications of the tensile stress/strain developed in high density polyethylene (HDPE)
geomembranes (GMB) is explored in the context of a reduction in stress crack resistance …

Data are reported from oven aging in air for more than 13 years (!) and from water immersion
tests for 6 years at 80° C on various high-density polyethylene geomembranes (GM) used in …
