Kaolin based protective barrier in municipal landfills against adverse chemo-mechanical loadings
Abstract In this work, we assess the self-sealing and swelling ability of the compacted granular bentonite (GB) under an inorganic salt environment and induced overburden stresses from the landfill waste. The laboratory permeation tests with high ionic strength salt solutions reveal that the GB fail...
