The utilization of industrial byproducts in landfill liners has shown increasing interest and
continuous awareness in meeting their regulatory standards (ie 1× 10− 7 cm/s, as per the …

Among the many proposals for estimating the compaction characteristics of fine-grained
soils for different compaction energy levels (CELs), energy conversion (EC) models are …

Laboratory tests were conducted on a reddish-brown lateritic soil treated with up to 12%
bagasse ash to assess its suitability in waste containment barriers applications. Soil …

In current geoenvironmental practice, design engineers usually require that soil liners in
waste landfills be compacted within a specified range of water content and dry unit weight …

Leachate emanating from landfills contains ammonia which may cause serious health
effects on living things. An effectively designed clay barrier should not allow the contaminant …

Compacted sandy soils with addition of bentonite have been used in a variety of
