United States1designated liquid flows through it under either constant orfalling head conditions.4.1.1 The designated liquid might contain micro-organismsfrom which bio

16、logical growth can occur.4.2 Flow rate is measured over time, converted to eitherpermittivity or permeability, and reported according.4.2.1 Between readings, the test specimen can be allowed tobe in either nonsaturated or saturated conditions.4.2.2 Back flushing can be introduced from the directiono

17、pposite to the intended flow direction and evaluated accord-ingly.4.2.3 Biocide can be introduced with the back flushingliquid, or introduced within the test specimen, and evaluatedaccordingly.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is performance oriented for determin-ing if, and to what degree

18、, different liquids create biologicalactivity on geotextile filters thereby reducing their flow capa-bility. The use of the method is primarily oriented towardlandfill leachates but can be performed with any liquid comingfrom a particular site or synthesized from a predeterminedmixture of biological

19、 microorganisms.5.2 The test can be used to compare the flow capability ofdifferent types of geotextiles or soil/geotextile combinations.5.3 This test will usually take considerable time, forexample, up to 1000 h, for the biological activity to initiate,grow, and reach an equilibrium condition. The

20、curves resultingfrom the test are intended to indicate the in situ behavior of ageotextile or soil/geotextile filter.5.4 The test specimen can be incubated under non-saturateddrained conditions between readings, or kept saturated at alltimes. The first case allows for air penetration into the flowco

21、lumn and thus aerobic conditions. The second case can resultin the absence of air, thus it may simulate anaerobic conditions.5.5 The flow rate can be determined using either a constanthead test procedure or on the basis of a falling head testprocedure. In either case the flow column containing thege

22、otextile or soil/geotextile is the same, only the head controldevices change.NOTE 1It has been found that once biological clogging initiates,constant head tests often pass inadequate quantities of liquid to accuratelymeasure. It thus becomes necessary to use falling head tests which can bemeasured o

23、n the basis of time of movement of a relatively small quantityof liquid between two designated points on a clear plastic standpipe.5.6 If the establishment of an unacceptably high degree ofclogging is seen in the flow rate curves, the device allows forbackflushing with water or with water containing

24、 a biocide.5.7 The resulting flow rate curves are intended for use in thedesign of full scale geotextile or soil/geotextile filtrationsystems and possible remediation schemes in the case oflandfill lechate collection and removal systems.6. Apparatus6.1 The flow column and specimen mount, consists of

25、 a 100mm (4.0 in.) inside diameter containment ring for placement ofthe geotextile specimen along with upper and lower flow tubesto allow for uniform flow trajectories (see Fig. 1). The flowtubes are each sealed with end caps which have entry and exittubing connections (see Fig. 1). The upper tube c

26、an be madesufficiently long so as to provide for a soil column to be placedabove the geotextile. When this type of combined soil/geotextile cross section is used, however, it is difficult todistinguish which material is clogging, for example, the soil orthe geotextile. It does however simulate many

27、existing filtra-tion systems. In such cases, a separate test setup with thegeotextile by itself will be required as a control test and thedifference in behavior between the two tests will give anindication as to the contribution of soil clogging to the flowreduction.NOTE 2If piezoemetric heads in th

28、e material (soil or solid waste)located above the filter are desired, the upper flow column of thepermeameter can be modified to accommodate such measurements.Recommended are ports immediately above the filter (as close to it aspossible), and at14,12,34 and above the soil or solid waste in question.

29、Duplicate ports on each side of the permeameter at the above elevationsare considered good practice in measurements of this type. Otherconfigurations are at the option of the parties involved.The ports are connected by flexible tubing to a manometer board forreadings in a manner that is typical for

30、measurements of this type. See TestMethod D5101, the Gradient Ratio test, for additional details.6.2 Hydraulic head control devices, are required at both theinlet and outlet ends of the flow column. Fig. 2 shows thecomplete setup based on constant hydraulic head monitoringwhere concentric plastic cy

31、linders are used with the innercylinders being at the elevation from which head is measured.The elevation difference between the inner cylinder at the inletend and the inner cylinder at the outlet end is the total headacross the geotextile test specimen (or soil/geotextile testspecimen in the case o

32、f a combined test column). Note that theelevation of the outlet must be above the elevation of thegeotextile.FIG. 1 Flow Column to Contain Geotextile Test SpecimenD1987 07 (2016)26.3 A hydraulic head standpipe , above the flow column isrequired for falling hydraulic head monitoring. Fig. 3 showsthis

33、 type of test configuration in which a clear plastic standpipeis placed above the flow column. Liquid movement is moni-tored for the time of flight between two marks on the standpipe.Note that the elevation of the outlet must be above theelevation of the geotextile.6.4 The overall test system, dimen

34、sions are sufficientlysmall so that either of the above mentioned units can be usedat a field site if desirable. They can either be kept stationary inthe laboratory or in the field, or they can be transported fromthe laboratory to the field site when required.6.5 The permeating liquid, is generally

35、site specific andoften comprises landfill leachate. Other liquids for whichbiological clogging is of concern can also be evaluated. Theliquid can be synthesized on an as-required basis.NOTE 3A synthesized liquid which has been used in determining theresistance of plastics to bacteria is Pseudomonas

Sampling7.1 Lot SampleDivide the product into lots and take thelot sample as directed in Practice D4354.7.2 Laboratory SampleFor the laboratory sample, take aswatch extending the

37、 full width of the geotextile of sufficientlength along the selvage from each sample roll so that therequirements of the following section can be met. Take asample that will exclude material from the outer wrap and innerwrap around the core unless the sample is taken at theproduction site, then inne

38、r and outer wrap material may beused.7.3 Test SpecimensFrom the laboratory sample select thenumber of specimens as per the number of flow columns to beevaluated. Space the specimens along a diagonal on the unit ofthe laboratory sample. Take no specimens nearer the selvage oredge of the laboratory sa

39、mple than 10 % of the width of thelaboratory sample. The minimum specimen diameter should be100 mm (4.0 in.) so that full fixity can be achieved around theinside of the flow column.8. Conditioning8.1 There is no conditioning of the geotextile test specimen,per se, since this test method is a hydraul

40、ic one and theconditions of the permeating fluid will be the controlling factor.See also Practice D1776.8.2 The relative humidity should be 100 % except duringtimes of air drying between nonsaturated test readings. Forsaturated conditions the relative humidity should always be100 %.8.3 The temperatu

41、re of the test over its entire duration isimportant. It is desirable to track temperature continuously. Ifnot possible, frequent readings at regular intervals are required.9. Procedure9.1 Procedure AConstant Head Test:9.1.1 Select and properly prepare the geotextile test speci-men. Trim the specimen

42、 to the exact and full diameter of theinside of the flow column.9.1.2 Fix the geotextile test specimen to the inside of thecontainment ring. If a water insoluble glue is used be sure thatany excess does not extend into the flow area of the geotextile.9.1.3 Caulk the upper surface of the geotextile t

43、o the insideof the containment ring using a silicon based caulk and allowit to completely cure. The caulk must be carefully placed so asnot to restrict flow through the geotextile.9.1.4 Insert the upper and lower tubes into the containmentring and create a seal. If polyvinyl chloride (PVC) tubing an

44、dfittings are being used, first a cleaner and then a solvent wipeis used to make the bond.4Available from American Type Culture Collection, 12301 Parklawn Drive,Rockville, MD 20852.5Available from Mycological Services, P.O.

46、lower end cap on the device and make itsseal.9.1.7 If soil is to be placed over the geotextile, place it atthis time. Place the soil at its targeted moisture content anddensity taking care not to dislodge or damage the geotextilebeneath.9.1.8 Place the upper end cap on the device and make apermanent

47、 seal.9.1.9 Connect flexible plastic tubing from the flow columnstop and bottom to the head control devices. At this point thesystem should appear as shown in the photograph of Fig. 2.9.1.10 Adjust the total head lost to 50 mm (2.0 in.) andinitiate flow via the introduction of the permeating fluid t

48、o thesystem. When using leachate, proper safety and health precau-tions must be maintained depending upon the nature of theleachate itself.NOTE 4It is suggested to use 50 mm (2 in.) total head difference sincethis is the prescribed value used in the permittivity test of Test MethodD4491. Other value

49、s of head or hydraulic gradient, as mutually decidedupon by the parties involved, could also be used.9.1.11 Convert the liquid collected from the discharge tubeto flow rate (liters/min or gal/min) and repeat the measurementthree times. Report the average of this value.9.1.12 Increase the total head lost if desired. Heads of 100mm (4.0 in.), 200 mm (8.0 in.), and 300 mm (12.0 in.) mightbe considered. These relatively high values of total head maybe required if the geotextile begins to clog.9.1.13 After readings are completed, disconnect the headcontrol devi
