| Abstract: | This article describes some laboratory tests performed on each kind of sludge located in an industrial wastes landfill. Measured physical properties are: field capacity, hydraulic permeability, saturation water content, effective porosity and particle-size distribution. The laboratory apparatus is described; the obtained results are analyzed to point out the possible correlations among the examined parameters. The aim of this work is to provide a data bank for industrial wastes landfills useful to perform some applications such as the evaluation of the produced leachate quantity for landfills whose wastes are similar to the ones here considered. |
