Research overview

Bench-scale testing compares a named drainage geocomposite with gravel in a horizontal landfill-drainage model. Gravel carried a higher maximum flow, while the geocomposite drained sufficiently in that setup and showed faster initial suction; results remain product-, geometry- and test-specific.
