    Abstract
    Sodium-bentonite (Na-bentonite) is a highly active clay commonly used as a barrier or a component of a barrier for chemical containment applications (e.g., landfills, waste impoundments, vertical cutoff walls) due to the ability of Na-bentonite to limit solute (contaminant) transport resulting from high swell and low hydraulic conductivity. However, Na-bentonite also may exhibit semipermeable membrane behavior or solute restriction, which can result in enhanced performance of the barrier by reducing liquid and contaminant flux. Experimental studies to date have focused on the correlation between ...
