Predictions of contaminant transport in landfill composite liners are essential to assess the
risk of groundwater pollution. The amount of soil organic carbon is strongly depth …

Barriers consisting of a composite geomembrane (GMB) and compacted clay liner (CCL) are
the most widely used systems for the landfill bottom liner. It is anticipated that for the case of …

This paper presents an analytical study of organic contaminants transport in a cut-off wall
and aquifer dual-domain system, considering the effects of the inlet boundary conditions and …

A composite liner system consisting of a geomembrane layer (GMBL), a compacted clay
layer (CCL) and an attenuation layer (AL) is widely used in the modern landfills. The field …

In this article, a one-dimensional non-isothermal diffusion model for organic pollutant in an
unsaturated composite liner (comprising a geomembrane and an unsaturated compacted …

Many studies have developed analytical models for describing the subsurface heat transfer
to estimate the infiltration rate, that is, the vertical groundwater flux (VGF). These studies …

Previous studies indicate that liner defects can significantly accelerate contaminant
migration in landfill, shortening the migration time by orders of magnitude. Although the …

Contaminated groundwater migrates in reverse direction under capillary force in vadose
zone, and the attenuation process of pollutant adsorption and microbial degradation …

Leachate head in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills can be very high (eg,> 10 m) in
some Chinese landfills and can continuously change during the service life of the landfill …

The capillary fringe (CF) is a well-known zone of tension saturation immediately above the
water table and has significant influence on solute transport in soil profile, yet the CF has not …
