Experimental study on leakage of geomembrane-GCL composite liner under the different defective aperture

Geomembrane-GCL composite liner(GGCL) was commonly used to isolate waste liquid from the evaporation pond to minimize potential groundwater contamination. Referring to the possible physical damage to the GGCL, the influences of defective aperture, hydration, and pressure head on the leakages of GGCL were investigated by experiments, and the leakages of GGCL were compared with Geomembrane liner(GL) under the same test conditions. It shows that the GGCL could significantly reduce the leakage, and the leakage of GGCL was less than ten percent of the leakage of GL. The leakage-pressure head relationship of GGCL is nonlinear, and the influence of the pressure head on the leakage decreases with the increasing of water head. The effect of hydration of GCL on the leakage is related to the physical damage of GGCL. The findings from the present study are helpful to the design of the barrier of the evaporation pond against leakage.
