Electrical Leak Location Arc Tester to Revolutionize Liner Quality
New equipment has been developed that behaves like a spark tester, but doesn’t have to be performed on conductive-backed geomembrane.  It has the same requirements as the water puddle and water lance methods in terms of a conductive layer underlying the geomembrane, including soil.  It is not a spark tester, which is used exclusively on conductive-backed geomembrane; yet, it creates an electrical spark.  The terminology invented to differentiate this new technology from its ...
Tailings Cover Hydrology for the Central Manitoba Mine Site – Undergraduate Thesis for the University of British Columbia
The hydrology of a proposed cover system, under varying drainage layer conditions, for a mine site rehabilitation project located in Southeastern Manitoba was analyzed with the SoilVision Systems Ltd., SVFlux software. The proposed 1 m thick engineered soil cover included a 0.2 m thick highly permeable basal granular drainage layer, which was replaced with a man-made synthetic drainage system (DRAINTUBE).Four different levels of potential clogging of the man-made drainage layer were analyzed, equivalent ...
ANDalyze Case Study - Uranium in Ground Water
Good Water Company (Testing Service) Groundwater samples were submitted by well owners from different regions ofNew Mexico(around Espanola region) in a water clinic sponsored by the Good Water Company.  Problem/Task The groundwater in this region is contaminated with natural uranium, often above the EPA maximum contaminant level of 30 ppb uranium.  ANDalyze Solution These samples were tested on-site with the ANDalyze Uranium100 sensor and compared to ICP data obtained at theUniversityofIllinois. Note that all these samples were preserved in acid and neutralized before testing with the ANDalyze sensor. Dilution was performed when sample concentration exceeded detection range.. Read more
