Preliminary results of a fill and draw flushing test in a pilot cell
Fill and draw is a contaminant flushing technique that involves saturating in situ waste from the bottom up with water and then, normally following a pause, draining the landfill to recover soluble and diffusive contaminants. To help understand the physical and chemical mechanisms that occur during flushing, 800 m3 of rhodamine WT and bromide tracers were injected into a purpose built landfill test cell over a period of 17 days. After a 3 day pause, the test cell was then pumped, from the base, for 79 days to recover the tracer. The tracer breakthrough data and the analysis of contaminants recovered from the waste during pumping will be used to determine contaminant transport processes of the waste

Abstract
Fill and draw is a contaminant flushing technique that involves saturating in situ waste from the bottom up with water and then, normally following a pause, draining the landfill to recover soluble and diffusive contaminants. To help understand the physical and chemical mechanisms that occur during flushing, 800 m3 of rhodamine WT and bromide tracers were injected into a purpose built landfill test cell over a period of 17 days. After a 3 day pause, the test cell was then pumped, from the base, for 79 days to recover the tracer. The tracer breakthrough data and the analysis of contaminants recovered from the waste during pumping will be used to determine contaminant transport processes of the waste
