Laboratory test and numerical simulation of composite geomembrane leakage in plain reservoir
Open Geosciences, 2021 Plain reservoir plays an important role in alleviating water shortage in plain areas which are generally crowded with large populations. As an effective and cheap anti-seepage measure, geomembrane is widely applied in plain reservoirs.

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract The Giant Mine (1948–1999) generated 16 Mt of Au‐bearing mill tailings (2800 mg kg−1) originating from a mixture of flotation tailings (84.8 wt%), calcine residues (14.4 wt.%), and arsenic trioxide roaster waste (0.8 wt.%). A water treatment system for high As mine dewatering effluent has operated since the end of mine operations, with the ...

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, September/October 2025.Abstract Capillary barrier is an engineered structure composed of a fine‐grained layer overlying a coarse‐grained layer. However, traditional two‐layer configurations of fine and coarse grains exhibit suboptimal water storage performance in semi‐humid to humid regions.

Diffusion through Pulverized Stone Compared to Other Mineral Barrier Materials [PDF]
, 2004 Construction of a waste disposal site requires an effective barrier that separates waste from a sub-base and minimizes the migration of contaminants from the site to an aquifer. Barrier layers most often used are natural clayey deposits or compacted clay

Analysing Deep Percolation Dynamics: A Lysimeter‐Based Study in a Cold Environment
Hydrological Processes, Volume 39, Issue 4, April 2025.We used four drainage lysimeters inside three experimental soil covers to study deep percolation dynamics in cold and warm seasons, uncovering shorter but more intense events during cold, influenced by rain‐on‐snow and soil freezing. ABSTRACT Understanding deep percolation dynamics is crucial for effective groundwater management.
