Gas shales are one of the potential sinks considered for carbon dioxide sequestration. Therefore further research on the importance of sorption on the carbon dioxide sequestration potential is highly topical. Experimentally measured maximum sorption capacity of carbon dioxide was about ... Read More
Bentonite is a versatile material that is, among other things, envisaged in designs for radioactive waste repositories to protect the waste canisters against groundwater. The thermo-hydraulic-mechanically coupled process of bentonite saturation is commonly based on two-phase flow and a ... Read More
The Spectral Induced Polarization (SIP) is a promising electrical method, which can be used to predict the saturated hydraulic conductivity of consolidated and unconsolidated porous media. It is important to investigate how the SIP response is affected by the shape and distribution of ... Read More
The calibration of groundwater models is usually limited by the scarcity of direct hydraulic data. The estimation of heterogeneous distribution of hydraulic properties can be improved through a joint or coupled inversion in which the calibration dataset is complemented with geophysical ...

Controlling the odiferous landfill gas (LFG) [e.g., Hydrogen sulfide (H2S)] emission is an important environmental issue during operating a municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill. A combination of LFG collection system and landfill cover has been an adapted method to mitigate the issue ... Read More
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) landfills typically experience significant settlement associated with various multi-physical factors such as waste property, placement timing, total height, and environmental conditions such as temperature and saturation throughout the lifetime of the ... Read More
In a pumping test the drawdown of the water table in a piezometer is recorded, as response to pumping from a nearby well. Pumping tests belong into the common toolbox of hydro-geologists, used to obtain basic parameters for aquifer characterization. There are various approaches to ... Read More
Smouldering is flameless combustion which depends on an exothermic surface reaction occurring within a porous medium. It is harnessed by engineers to destroy organic liquid wastes in soil as the technology Self-sustaining Treatment for Active Remediation (STAR). During this remediation ... Read More
