Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering > Vol. 135 N° 5 (Mai 2009) . - pp. 664–672 Titre : Hydraulic conductivity and compressibility of soil-bentonite backfill amended with activated carbon Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Michael A. Malusis, Auteur ; Edward J. Barben, Auteur ; Jeffrey C. Evans, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 664–672 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Activated carbon Bentonite Compression Cutoff walls Hydraulic conductivity Résumé : Flexible-wall permeability tests and rigid-wall consolidation/permeability tests were performed to evaluate the hydraulic conductivity and compressibility of a model soil-bentonite (SB) backfill amended with granular activated carbon (GAC) or powdered activated carbon (PAC). The tests were performed as part of an assessment of enhanced SB backfill with improved attenuation capacity for greater longevity of barrier containment performance. Backfill specimens containing fine sand, 5.8% sodium bentonite, and GAC or PAC (0, 2, 5, and 10% by dry weight) were prepared to target slumps of 125±12.5mm . Hydraulic conductivity (k) and compressibility of backfill test specimens were measured in consolidometers as a function of effective stress, σ′ (24⩽σ′⩽1,532kPa) , whereas flexible-wall k was measured for backfill specimens consolidated to σ′=34.5kPa . The results indicate that addition of GAC has little impact on the hydraulic and consolidation properties of the backfill, whereas addition of PAC causes a decrease in k and consolidation coefficient (cv) and a slight increase in compression index (Cc) . Differences in behavior between GAC-amended backfills and PAC-amended backfills are attributed primarily to differences in GAC and PAC particle size.
