Are GCLs compatible with landfill leachate?
Many laboratory hydraulic conductivity tests have been performed on specimens of CETCO GCLs with leachate as the permeant. This testing has shown that hydraulic conductivity generally remains unchanged. TR-101A is a test report showing laboratory testing data of Bentomat permeated with landfill leachate. TR-254 summarizes laboratory testing results of Bentomat permeated with multivalent salt solutions representative of landfill leachate.
