The hydraulic conductivities in the bentonite-sand mixtures with high density were measured, and the effects of sand content and dry density on the hydraulic conductivity were investigated. The hydraulic conductivities of the bentonite-sand mixtures with a dry density of 1.6 Mg/㎥ and 1.8 Mg/㎥ are less than 10$^{-11}$ m/s when the sand content is not higher than 70 wt%. However at the sand content of 90 wt%, the hydraulic conductivity increases rapidly At the same dry density, the logarithm of hydraulic conductivity increases linearly with increasing sand content. The hydraulic conductivity of the bentonite-sand mixture can be explained by the concept of effective clay dry density, and using this concept, the hydraulic conductivities for the mixtures with various sand contents and dry densities can be estimated.

고준위폐기물 처분장의 완충재 및 뒷채움재 후보물질로 고려되고 있는 경주벤토나이트를 대상으로 압축 벤토나이트 및 벤토나이트-모래 혼합물의 열전도도가 측정되었다. 압축벤토나이트는 건조밀도가 $1.2\;Mg/m^3$에서 $1.8\;Mg/m^3$범위에 대해, 압축 벤토나이트-모래 혼합물은 건조밀도가 $1.6\;Mg/m^3$에서 $1.8\;Mg/m^3$ 사이이고, 모래의 함량이 중량비로 10 wt%에서 30 wt%인 범위의 혼합물에 대해 측정하였다. 측정시료의 수분 함량은 중량비로 10 wt%에서 20 wt% 까지 변화시켰다. 압축 벤토나이트 및 벤토나이트-모래 혼합물의 열전도도는 수분함량이 일정할 때, 건조밀도가 증가할수록, 모래 함량이 많을수록 증가하였으며, 건조밀도가 일정한 경우에는 수분 함량과 모래 함량이 증가할수록 증가하였다. 각 건조밀도에서의 수분함량의 증가에 따른 열전도도 변화를 나타낼 수 있는 실험적 관계식들이 제시되었다. 이 관계식들은 10% 오차 범위에서 압축벤토나이트 및 벤토나이트-모래 혼합물의 열전도도 값을 예측할 수 있다.

Compacted layers of sand-bentonite mixtures have been proposed and used in a variety of geotechnical projects as engineered barriers for the enhancement of impervious landfill liners, cores of zoned earth dams and radioactive waste repository systems. This paper presents a study on the valorization of local materiel such as dune sand from Laghouat region and mine bentonite intended for the realization of liner base layers in the conception of insulation barriers for hazardous waste centers. In the practice we try to get an economical mixture that satisfies the hydraulic and mechanical properties specified by regulation rules. The effect of the bentonite additions on the mixture is reflected by its capability of clogging the matrix pores upon swelling. In order to get an adequate dune sand-bentonite mixture, an investigation on hydraulic and mechanical behaviours is carried out in this study for different mixtures. Using oedometer test, the adequate bentonite addition to the mixture, which satisfies the conditions on permeability, is found to be around 12% to 15%. These results are also confirmed by direct measurement using triaxial cell.

When mixed with lime, sand-bentonite mixture is characterized by considerable hydraulic properties similar to natural pozzolans and may therefore be increased in the strength of sand-bentonite mixture. The present study reports that results obtained in a series of laboratory tests carried out using particular mixing ratio of lime-sand-bentonite with the aim of investigating physical characteristics, permeability and strength. The results were compared and analyzed according to hydration time and lime content. Test results showed that increasing of strength and decreasing of permeability by proper lime content. Curing for longer periods increased unconfined compressive strength of mixture. Based on results of the falling head permeability test, mixtures of lime content 3%, 6% and 9% were satisfied in using as liner after 8-day curing periods.

This paper concerns the measurement of thermal conductivity of grouting materials for ground loop heat exchanger. A thermal conductivity meter, QTM-500 based on modified transient hot wire method was used to measure the thermal conductivity of neat bentonite and mixtures of bentonite and various additives. Relative to the total mixture mass, as the percent additive was increased the mixture thermal conductivity increased. For the bentonite-silica sand mixtures, the higher density of the sand particles resulted in much higher mixture thermal conductivity.

Abstract A series of permeability tests was performed on the mixtures with specific mixing rates of sand and bentonite using modified rigid-wall permeameter. Sand-bentonite mixtures were permeated by organics, ethanol and TCE. Permeability of bentonite with several mixing rates had a tendency to decrease up to initial one pore volume and permeability was thereafter converged to a constant value. When sand-bentonite mixtures was permeated by water, permeability was decreased at the beginning but it was thereafter converged to a constant. Among several mixing rates, permeability was greatly decreased at 15% of mixing rate. When sand-bentonite mixtures with 15% mixing rate was permeated by ethanol, permeability was about 10 times larger value than permeability of water. Peameability was shown greater values when permeated by TCE (TrichloroEthylene) followed by ethanol. Suitable mixing rate of sand-bentonite for a liner of waste landfills was detected.

The thermal and mechanical properties of compacted bentonite and bentonite-sand mixture were collected from the literatures and compiled. The thermal conductivity of bentonite is found to increase almost linearly with increasing dry density and water content of the bentonite. The specific heat can also be expressed as a function of water ontent, and the coefficient of thermal expansion is almost independent on the dry density. The logarithm of unconfined compressive strength and Young’s modulus of elasticity increase linearly with increasing dry density, and in the case of constant dry density, it can be fitted to a second order polynomial of water content. Also the unconfined compressive strength and Young’s modulus of elasticity of the bentonite-sand mixture decreases with increasing sand content. The Poisson’s ratio remains constant at the dry density higher than 1.6 Mg/m$_3$, and the shear strength increases with increasing dry density.

Relative to the total mixture mass, as the percent additive was increased the mixture thermal conductivity increased. For the bentonite-silica sand mixtures, the higher density of the sand particles resulted in much higher mixture thermal conductivity. The quartzite and silica sands produced the largest increases in mixture thermal conductivity, while common masonry and limestone sands produced lower thermal conductivity increases.

이 연구에서는 화학액으로서 해안가에서 쉽게 영향 받는 염분을 사용하였다. 염분 용액으로 포화된 모래 벤토나이트 혼합토를 사용하여 압밀 비배수 삼축압축 시험을 실시하였다. 변형과 강도정수를 삼축압축시험을 통하여 구속응력과 염수의 농도 변화에 따라 구하였다. 실험 결과 영수로 포화된 흙과 벤토나이트의 점착력은 염수의 농도가 증가함에 따라 증가하며 내부마찰각은 변화가 없고 탄성계수는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.
