Settlement evaluation in sanitary landfills is a complex process, due to the waste heterogeneity, time-varying properties and influencing factors and mechanisms, such as mechanical compression due to the load application and creep, and physical-chemical and biological processes caused by the wastes decomposition. Many empirical models of analysis and lo...
View ArticleThe use of soil-bentonite mixtures for sanitary landfill liners with the purpose of retaining pollutants is becoming very common. This work shows the results of hydraulic conductivity and shear strength tests performed with soil-bentonite mixtures with bentonite contents of 3%, 5% and 7%. Additionally, shear strength test results carried out with a mixt...
View ArticleThe ash of rice rind is a pozzolanic material that reacts with the calcium hydroxide (Ca (OH)2) forming bonding composites, when finely worn out and in water presence. Considering this behavior, the objective of the present work was to evaluate the potential use of this residue in the enrichment of the content of pozzolanic materials of a tropical soil ...
