We modelled lithium transport through an undisturbed solid waste sample and a pilot-scale
experimental landfill by use of the same probabilistic Lagrangian approach. The waste
sample contained 3.5 m3 of old, well-degraded waste, and the experimental landfill 545 m3
of fresh municipal waste. In the waste sample, four tracer tests were performed under either
constant water head or sprinkling input boundary conditions, and either steady state or
transient flow. All experimental breakthrough curves (BTCs) exhibit greater spreading than …
