Laboratory permeability and single ring infiltration tests for the testing of waterproofing barriers of landfill tanks.
Abstract: Hydraulic conductivity is a fundamental hydrogeological parameter for the testing of waterproofing barriers of landfill tanks. These barriers are aimed at guaranteeing the isolation of the waste and preventing the infiltration of the percolate in the subsoil.Geotechnical features of mineral barriers must be preliminarily established through geotechnical laboratory tests in order to verify their suitability for their application.The main mineral barriers correspond to the bottom waterproofing of the landfill tanks …
