A Two‐Dimensional Analytical Model for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Transport in Layered Landfill Composite Cover System With Gas Collection System
Layered cover structures are widely used as landfill environmental barriers to reduce the escape of odor gases. An innovative two‐dimensional analytical model is developed to examine volatile organic compounds (VOCs) migration via a four‐layered soil cover made up of a gas recovery layer, compacted clay liner (CCL) layer, geomembrane (GMB), and protective layer. The effects of source concentration distribution, LFG collection system, saturation degree, contaminant degradation rate, and GMB on cover system performance were evaluated. For a significantly more tightly clustered source concentration, 1D models tend to produce more conservative results in contrast to the 2D models based on the analysis of nonuniform contamination source distribution. Results show that increasing saturation degree (Sr) and degradation rate lead to lower steady‐state surface flux. VOCs migration in the cover system is more sensitive to Sr variation in the CCL and gas recovery layer than that in the protective layer. The 2D results suggest that decreasing the half‐life of the contaminant to 0.01 years when Sr1 = Sr2 = Sr4 = 0.5 can improve the cover system performance. An intact GMB layer and the gas collection flow rate of over 6 m3/s are required for the cover system to achieve a 70% LFG collection efficiency and satisfy the surface flux tolerance value. The proposed analytical model can be used for the preliminary design of the landfill cover system and verification of the complex numerical model.
期刊介绍:
The journal welcomes manuscripts that substantially contribute to the understanding of the complex mechanical behaviour of geomaterials (soils, rocks, concrete, ice, snow, and powders), through innovative experimental techniques, and/or through the development of novel numerical or hybrid experimental/numerical modelling concepts in geomechanics. Topics of interest include instabilities and localization, interface and surface phenomena, fracture and failure, multi-physics and other time-dependent phenomena, micromechanics and multi-scale methods, and inverse analysis and stochastic methods. Papers related to energy and environmental issues are particularly welcome. The illustration of the proposed methods and techniques to engineering problems is encouraged. However, manuscripts dealing with applications of existing methods, or proposing incremental improvements to existing methods – in particular marginal extensions of existing analytical solutions or numerical methods – will not be considered for review.
