Characteristics of a Bentonite Slurry as a Sealant
Many of the technologies that relate to groundwater use bentonite slurries. The results of a laboratory investigation aimed at determining the characteristics of a bentonite slurry as a sealant are presented herein. Slurry indicator tests were used to determine the physical characteristics of the slurry, and performance tests, such as hydraulic conductivity and model tests, were conducted to ...

Analysis of Hydraulic Gradient Effects for Laboratory Hydraulic Conductivity Testing
A theoretical model is presented that characterizes the effect of hydraulic gradient on measured hydraulic conductivity in the laboratory. A closed-form equation is derived for the distribution of total head within a hydraulic conductivity test specimen as a function of specimen height, boundary stress conditions, compression index, and change of hydraulic conductivity index. From this ...

Determining Bentonite Content in Soil-Bentonite Mixtures Using Electrical Conductivity
A procedure based on electrical conductivity is described for measuring bentonite content in soil-bentonite mixtures having a wide range of bentonite contents. Standard equipment used for sedimentation analysis and an electrical conductivity meter are required. The procedure employs calibration curves relating electrical conductivity and bentonite concentration for soil-bentonite-water slurries. ...

Hydroman™ Submersible Dredge Pump
Hydroman™ Submersible Dredge Pumps are widely used in the industries for pumping out the sand, slurry, gravel, sludge materials out of the tanks or river. Hydroman Dredge Pumps are placed below the liquid level and therefore, It gets the name as submersible electric pumps. Owing to Hydroman’s accurate design, Hydroman pumps entirely clear the tanks and removes all the slurry liquid, waste water ...

Standard Chlorine of Delaware Remediation
By designing a 70-foot deep barrier wall, Black & Veatch was able to cut off contaminant source areas from a creek near New Castle, Delaware. The groundwater treatment system that Black & Veatch designed prevents site contamination from reaching the underlying drinking water aquifer. The Standard Chlorine of Delaware Site is a 65 acre area including an abandoned chlorobenzene ...

Excavation, Retrieval, and Off-Site Disposal
Introduction: Contaminated material is removed and transported to permitted off-site treatment and/or disposal facilities. Some pretreatment of the contaminated media usually is required in order to meet land disposal restrictions. Confined disposal facilities (CDFs) are engineered structure enclosed by dikes and designed to retain dredged materials. A CDF may have a large cell for material ...
