This study aims to investigate how the dimensions of breaches in a landfill's clay liner (protective screen) influence the migration of leachate at the base of a municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill. Numerical modeling of pollutant transport was conducted in homogeneous porous media, with the liner represented as a loam layer modeled as a homogeneous porous medium. The breaches are simulated as horizontal discontinuities within the loam layer, with a fixed length of approximately 10 m and variable widths. These discontinuities are entirely filled with a technogenic (engineered) material in the model. The time-dependent advection–dispersion equations governing pollutant transport were solved numerically, as no analytical solution exists for this class of problems.

摘要

This study aims to investigate how the dimensions of breaches in a landfill's clay liner (protective screen) influence the migration of leachate at the base of a municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill. Numerical modeling of pollutant transport was conducted in homogeneous porous media, with the liner represented as a loam layer modeled as a homogeneous porous medium. The breaches are simulated as horizontal discontinuities within the loam layer, with a fixed length of approximately 10 m and variable widths. These discontinuities are entirely filled with a technogenic (engineered) material in the model. The time-dependent advection–dispersion equations governing pollutant transport were solved numerically, as no analytical solution exists for this class of problems.
