Abstract: Biogeotechnology is a branch of Geotechnical Engineering that deals with the application of biotransformation, biogrouting and mineral precipitation (MICP) to geotechnical engineering problems. Soil capping is a technology to curb the interaction between a waste body and the ground surface. A final cover system in landfill capping play a major role in intercepting rainwater infiltration and percolation of surface water into the subsurface waste dumped area. In order to minimize the water infiltration through different barrier layers such as single liner system, single composite liner system and double liner system in cover system are recommended. A single composite liner system comprises of two barrier (made up of different material), placed over one another to provide beneficial effect whereas the single and double liner system consists of same material to attain the effect. The present study deals with the action of sea weed in the form of powder (produced by the cell wall) in the layer of soil capping which intercept the rainwater intrusion in liner. The results obtained from the hydraulic conductivity of different treated soils indicate that the effect of single liner system is equivalent to single composite liner system. It has been observed that the addition of sea weed powder causes dissociation of hydroxyl groups attached to silicon in silica sheets with increase in optimum water content. Thus the addition of sea weed powder decreases the infiltration rate by clogging the soil layers.
