To evaluate the feasibility of modified sludge used as landfill liner,the characteristics of sewage sludge modified by cement,coal gangue,clay and fiber were studied. Cracking,low temperature nitrogen adsorption,permeability and consolidated—undrained triaxial tests were performed to research the cracking factor,pore structure,hydraulic conductivity,and shear strength characteristic of modified sludge. The moisture content of modified sludge is from 22. 08% to 150. 48%,the cracking factor increases. With the increase of volume shrinkage rate,t...
