Application of Geosynthetics in Waste Containment: Long-Term Performance of Geosynthetics in Engineering Barrier Systems explains the transport mechanism and influencing factors of pollutants in geosynthetics. The book offers readers a better understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of geosynthetics and provides a theoretical basis for the development of new geosynthetic materials. It begins by examining the types, current applications, and development trends of commonly used geosynthetic materials in the fields of waste containment and environmental protection. The fundamental characteristics of geosynthetic materials and their roles in environmental protection are also introduced.
Subsequently, it focuses on material durability and introduces new materials which are crucial considerations in environmental applications. Furthermore, the book provides detailed explanations of the application of geosynthetic materials in waste containment, drainage and filtration layers, cover systems, bottom liners, and vertical cut-off walls within engineering barriers.
