Your Turn 9.23 Scientific Practices Landfill Liners
Landfill liners include natural clay and human-made plastics. For example, thick sheets of high-density polyethylene may be employed. Even the best HDPE liners, however, can crack and degrade.
- a. From Table 9.1. which types of chemicals soften HDPE?
- b. Name five substances sent to the landfill that could degrade a HDPE liner over time.
