Abstract:
Abstract Geosynthetic clay liners are widely used as hydraulic barrier due to their low hydraulic conductivity but bentonite in the liners loses its effectiveness due to significant thermal fluxes by both diurnal and seasonal heating and cooling cycles. Modified sodium carboxy methyl cellulose-based bentonite clay (HYPER clay) has shown better hydraulic performance in both situations. A possible reason for this improved performance of HYPER clay based geosynthetic clay liner is the improvement in the suction under changing thermal conditions. Thus, the relationship between soil suction and moi

Bentonite is commonly used in geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) as well as compacted clay liner (CCL) for containment facilities such as sanitary landfills due to its low permeability. Bentonite experiences significant shrinkage on drying, leading to the formation of desiccation cracks and increasing the likelihood of contaminant leachate from the landfill. Adding granular materials such as fine sand to bentonite canreduce shrinkage and hence shrinkage cracks.

Geosynthetic Clay Liners (GCLs) have been widely adopted in barrier systems for waste containment facilities. GCLs must be adequately hydrated at all times to maintain their low hydraulic conductivity. However, in several applications the GCL is subjected to high temperatures and its bentonite is therefore at risk of dehydration and desiccation. This is the case in landfills, brine ponds, solar ponds and tailing ponds. Higher desiccation risks have been found in artificial ponds exposed directly to solar radiation.

Recent field studies have shown that leaving a composite liner exposed can also lead to down-slope erosion of bentonite from the GCL due to the down-slope movement of moisture.

Abstract:
Cover and bottom liners at waste disposal sites are usually composed of a compacted clay layer (CCL) or a geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) overlain by a geomembrane. Employing local materials in the compacted layer should be attempted, since transportation costs and environmental impacts associated to borrow pit exploitation may be significantly reduced. Saprolitic silty soils of acidic rocks, which occur extensively in tropical regions, may present adequate geotechnical properties when compacted and confined, but their compacted permeability is generally at least tenfold higher than the limit value of 10−9m/s usually required for liners. Furthermore, characterization of this construction material is particularly difficult due to the occurrence of thick layers with great spatial heterogeneity relative to mechanical and hydraulic properties. This paper shows the results of an investigation on the technical feasibility of using a silty saprolitic soil of the metropolitan region of São Paulo for liner construction by means of bentonite addition and compaction at modified energy. Initially, optimum bentonite content was determined considering the mixture permeability. Compressibility, shear strength and expansibility were also determined for the natural soil and the soil-bentonite mixture. A test liner was built in a waste disposal site to consider practical construction aspects. Bentonite addition reduces soil permeability and ensures conformity to specification limits, without significantly modifying other geotechnical properties. The swelling potential of the natural soil and the mixture is a negative aspect that has to be properly addressed.

Abstract:
Engineering specifications for a compacted clay liner are based mainly on a permeability coefficient less than 10−7cm/s. Sand-bentonite mixtures are often used as a barrier material when there is a lack of naturally occurring clayey soils at a site. The addition of small amounts of bentonite (5-15%) improves the performance of a granular material providing a low permeability and an enhanced mechanical stability. In addition, bentonites, obtained in dry, powdered forms, are much easier to blend with onsite sandy soils and to be compacted than wet, sticky clods of clay. Thus, this paper investigates the permeability coefficient of the sand bentonite mixtures. The factors affecting it such as the bentonite content and the impact of real municipal solid waste leachate on the liner permeability are investigated. Volume change after inundation is also investigated taking into consideration the effect of the bentonite content and the type of the permeating fluid. The composite liner consisting from geomembrane (HDPE) sheets as a primary liner and sand bentonite mixture as a secondary liner is tested. The effect of imperfections of the HDPE sheets on the overall permeability of the composite liner is emphasized to clarify importance of the secondary liner in the prevention of the groundwater table contamination.

Abstract:
The chemical compatibility and the barrier performance of geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) were examined in this paper. The use of GCLs as hydraulic barriers in liner and cover systems for waste containment facilities is on the rise. GCLs consist of a thin layer of bentonite sandwiched between two geotextiles or glued to a geomembrane. Their extremely low hydraulic conductivity to water is attributed to the bentonite in the GCLs, which is composed primarily of a smectite mineral. However, there have been concerns as to the chemical compatibility of GCLs, since bentonite is very sensitive to chemical effects and this can lead to an increase in hydraulic conductivity. The present study focuses on (1) the difference in performance between powdered and granular types of bentonite, (2) the influence of real waste leachates on the hydraulic conductivity of GCLs, (3) the effect of the overburden pressure on the hydraulic conductivity of GCLs, and (4) the chemical compatibility of modified bentonite and its long-term performance.

Abstract:
Geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) are commonly used in geocomposite waste barrier systems as replacement for compacted clay liners. In recent years a number of problems associated with GCLs have been identified including panel shrinkage, desiccation cracking, chemical incompatibility, cation exchange and lack of hydration in geomembrane/GCL composite liner systems. The most important factor affecting the performance of a GCL is cation exchange in the bentonite. Leachate compatibility testing of the GCL is therefore necessary, initially by swell index testing, followed by hydraulic conductivity testing if the swell index test indicates promising results. The results of leachate GCL compatibility testing performed for four waste disposal facilities are presented and their influence on the respective barrier designs. It is concluded that there is a future for the use of GCLs in waste barrier systems provided that the compatibility of the GCL is confirmed through testing
