Estimation of Maximum Liquid Depth in Layered Drainage Blankets over Landfill Barriers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Based on an extended form of the Dupuit assumption, this technical note proposes a computational solution for calculating the maximum liquid depth
Foam Flow Model of Municipal Solid Waste and Its Application in Landfill Gas Pressure Prediction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Foam, as a group of disconnected gas bubbles wrapped with liquid film, also exists in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills. In this study, a foam flow model in MSW is established, in which the population balance equation ...
Secondary Compression of Municipal Solid Wastes and a Compression Model for Predicting Settlement of Municipal Solid Waste Landfills
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The estimation of the capacity and settlement of landfills is critical to successful site operation and future development of a landfill. This paper reports the results of a study on biodegradation behavior and the compression ...
Comparison of Adsorption Behaviors of Kaolin from Column and Batch Tests: Concept of Dual Porosity
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Batch equilibrium tests with various soil-liquid ratios (S/L=1∶2.5, 1∶5, 1∶10, and 1∶20) and column tests with a flow interruption and rest period were performed to evaluate the adsorption behavior of kaolin. Identical ...
Air Injection Tests via Single Wells and Multiple Wells in a Municipal Solid Waste Landfill
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Aeration is an effective in situ remediation technique to accelerate the stabilization process and reduce the odor’s concentration of municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills. The distribution of oxygen in a landfill is crucial ...
