Abstract

The damage of wellpoint and/or clogging of geotextile occurring during the period of landfill construction and its management may cause poor performance of landfill leachate collection system. This paper describes the permittivity characteristics of newly designed geotextile and its application to the landfill leachate collection system, which is to minimize the damage of drainage system caused by the settlement due to landfill construction. The actual landfill leachate collected from in-situ was used for leaching tests. Test results show that the permeability values of reinforced geotextile are in the range between 1×10-1 and 1×10-4.
