Design of an automated tension infiltrometer for unsaturated hydraulic conductivity measurement [PDF]
A tension infiltrometer for field use, where both water level changes measurement and tension settings could be automated, was built in-house. Differential pressure transducers were used to automate the water level measurement in the reservoir.

In situ mixing of organic matter decreases hydraulic conductivity of denitrification walls in sand aquifers [PDF]
In a previous study, a denitrification wall was constructed in a sand aquifer using sawdust as the carbon substrate. Ground water bypassed around this sawdust wall due to reduced hydraulic conductivity.

Effect of solid waste landfill leachate contaminants on hydraulic conductivity of landfill liners
Landfilling is one of the most widely used methods to reduce the impact on the environment and human health by ensuring the management of solid wastes. For the process in question to be called landfill, the landfill leachate must be controlled and liner ...
