Comparative Study on Performances of Clay - Bentonite and Bentonite - Quarry Dust Mixture as Landfill Liner
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 3
Abstract
Landfills are the man- made places on land, where the wastes collected are dumped. In today’s world landfills are a serious environmental pollution factor because of the emission of toxic gases and groundwater contamination. Major component of a landfill is its liner and to avoid such environmental health hazards, liner material should possess certain standard properties. Hence in this study, an attempt has been made to consider two kinds of mixes, namely, the clay-bentonite mix and the bentonite-quarry dust mix. The properties such as permeability and compressive strength of the mixes were determined.
