Inorganic contaminants, while transported through the bentonite layer, are chemically adsorbed onto the particle surfaces and exhibit a delay in solute breakthrough in hydraulic barriers. Transport of inorganic leachate contaminants through bentonite occurs by advection, diffusi…

The overall goal of this research is concerned with understanding the effects of bentonite on the external corrosion of bare mild steel well casing. Na-bentonite is mainly used in enormous amounts in drilling processes, so it used as the main electrochemical environment surround…

Deep geological disposal is a method of managing high level, long-­‐lived nuclear waste. It is a concept that many countries are exploring for the possibility of managing nuclear waste generated from power production. For deep geological disposal to be viable then areas where pr…

A Saudi bentonite natural clay was investigated as an adsorbent for the Basic Blue 3 dye from wastewater. A batch adsorber was used to determine the pore diffusivity and the equilibrium isotherms, and a fixed bed adsorber was used to determine experimental breakthrough curves fo…
