Abstract
This exploration paper researches the capability of further developing landfill liner materials by integrating varying percentages of bentonite into sand, marble dust, and fly ash mixtures. The study focuses on determining whether these mixtures are suitable for development of landfill liner by examining their permeability properties. Bentonite, a clay known for its high swelling and sealing properties, is added to sand, marble dust, and fly ash at different range from 0% to 40%. The permeability testing is conducted under various electrolyte concentration to simulate diverse environmental conditions that landfill liners may encounter. Three electrolytes, in particular CaCl2 (1N, 1.5N, 2N), NaOH (1, 1.5, 2N), and HCl (1N, 1.5N, 2N), are utilized to investigate the materials’ responses to varying pH levels and ionic strengths. The penetrability evaluations aim to provide experiences into the effectiveness of the mixtures in preventing the migration of pollutants/contaminates in landfill sites. The findings of this study are supposed to contribute valuable information to the field of geotechnical engineering, explicitly in the development of landfill liners. The result of this study will offer guidance to engineers and researchers to work on sustainable practises with the focus on waste utilization and cost effective approach on the development of landfill liner material.
