Field studies on the soil loss reduction effectiveness of three biodegradable geotextiles
Journal of Agricultural Engineering, 2018 Biodegradable geotextiles have the potential to significantly reduce soil loss and ensure slope stability in areas at risk. Here, we focus on three biodegradable textiles (namely, jute net, jute mat, and wool mat), and study their response in terms of ...

Cost–benefit analysis of landfill emergency securing: Two applications in Southern Italy
Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, Volume 97, Issue 1, Page 183-205, March 2026.Abstract The systematic use of landfills as a method of waste disposal is leaving a heavy legacy in terms of environmental pollution, especially in the case of illegal or non‐compliant disposal sites. When no environmental precaution is adopted, harmful substances' release imposes relevant health risk to the surrounding population.

Wet and dry effect on the hydraulic conductivity of polymer treated GCL prototype [PDF]
, 2016 Geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) are widely used to isolate pollutants because of their low hydraulic conductivity to water. However, the performance of clay barriers may be impaired by prolonged exposure to electrolytic liquids which may lead to the ...
