Lysimeter Study Approach
• Simulate landfill disposal of CCA
• 6 PVC Columns
• 22 feet high, 1-Foot diameter
• Natural Precipitation or DI water infiltrates through a cap and creates leachate

Disposal Scenarios
• CCA Monofill
• Construction and Demolition (C&D) Landfill
• Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Landfill

Lysimeters
• Lysimeter 1 – Untreated wood
• Lysimeter 2 – CCA: 50% old, 50% new
• Lysimeter 3 – Typical C&D mix
• Lysimeter 4 – C&D w/CCA
• Lyimeter 5 – MSW w/untreated wood
• Lysimeter 6 – MSW w/CCA

Monitoring
• Lysimeters began operation on August 28 (Wood, C&D) and September 27, 2001 (MSW)
• Weekly temperature taken inside the lysimeters at 3 different depths (5, 10, 19 feet from the top of waste)
• Record volume and characterize gas produced– Test gas with Landtec Gem 500 (methane,
CO2)

Leachate Collection
• Collect leachate twice monthly and analyze for general water quality parameters and As, Cu, and Cr

Preliminary Results
• Weekly Temp monitoring fluctuates with ambient temps
• Weekly gas monitoring – methane detected up to 60% in MSW lysimeters
• Leachate generated from all lysimeters
• Metals found in Lysimeters w/CCA– Lys 2 - 9/28/2001– Lys 4 - 6/25/2002– Lys 6 - 7/17/2002

Operation
• Lysimeters will continue operation through spring and summer– DI water added as needed– Temp and Gas readings taken weekly– Leachate collection twice monthly and
continued analysis for general water quality parameters and As, Cu, Cr
