Study on the antiseepage mechanism of the PBFC slurry for landfill site

Abstract

In order to develop a kind of slurry with low permeability which has some adsorption and retardation to the pollutants in leachate to be used in antiseepage engineering of leachate for landfill site, experiments based on orthogonal method were performed. The optimal PBFC slurry was selected: bentonite 18–26%, cement 16–24%, fly ash 18–20%, TOJ800-10 water reducing agent 0.01–0.03%, polyvinyl alcohol 0.2–0.8%, sodium carbonate 0.8–1.5% and water 680–780/1000 mL seriflus. The material has good groutability and a concretion stone ratio which is greater than 99.6%. The coefficient of permeability of 28-day concretion body is 0.53 × 10[Formula: see text]–1.86 × 10[Formula: see text] cm/s and the compressive strength is 0.64–1.04 MPa. The slurry has good adsorption and retardation properties. The block rate of NH 4 -N and phosphorus reached 98.28%, and the block rate of CODCr and BOD 5 reached 85.67%. The block rate of Hg, Pb and other heavy metal ions reached 99.8%. The PBFC slurry improved the retardation capability of the pollutants of the leachate at the landfill site by its infiltration sedimentation and adsorption fixation.
