Abstract

The installation of seepage control systems using liners made of impermeable materials has been used obligatory at final waste landfill. Sheets made of synthetic rubber and similar materials have conventionally been used for this purpose, but a problem has been presented recent years such as the leakage of contaminated water through perforations and defective joints of the sheets. In this study, the authors have reported the performance of self repairing geomembrane, which is developed as a cutoff material for waste landfill. They report in this paper, the self-repairing performance of this geomembrane, which has been exposed for 2 or 4 years and that of the newly developed geomembrane that is easier to construct than present geomembrane.
