Progression of Elevated Temperatures in Municipal Solid Waste Landfills
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Elevated temperatures in municipal solid waste landfills can pose health, environmental, and safety risks because they can generate excessive gases, liquids, pressures, and heat that can damage landfill infrastructure. ...
Service Life of HDPE Geomembranes Subjected to Elevated Temperatures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Subtitle D landfills may experience elevated temperatures for a variety of reasons such as hydration of combustion ash, waste biodegradation with and without leachate recirculation, aluminum production waste and combustion ...
Classification and Reactivity of Secondary Aluminum Production Waste
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Aluminum production wastes (APW) are produced during the recycling of aluminum scrap and dross. They are frequently disposed in dry form at Subtitle D nonhazardous waste landfills, where they may react adversely with ...
Relief Well Evaluation: Three-Dimensional Modeling and Blanket Theory
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study compares the differences in calculated relief well performance at the Profit Island vicinity levee (PIVL) near Baton Rouge, Louisiana, between the three-dimensional (3D) USGS MODFLOW-USG groundwater model and ...
Unsaturated and Transient Seepage Analysis of San Luis Dam
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Multiobjective Optimization of Relief Well Operations to Improve Levee Safety
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The factor of safety (FS) of levees and floodwalls with relief wells to underseepage is predicated on the blanket thickness and relief well performance. In urban environments with limited right of way, relief wells are an ...
