Influence of Ogallala groundwater and distilled water on the hydraulic conductivity of bentonite borehole plugs

A study investigating the effects of Ogallala groundwater on the hydraulic conductivity of bentonite borehole plugs has been conducted. Clay plugs constructed from bentonite tablets hydrated with unfiltered Ogallala groundwater exhibited reduced swelling and lower hydraulic conductivity than similar...
