0, it means there will be no overall volume change
as the volume of solids is lost from the system. The real
situation will likely be somewhere in between these two
extremes and it may also be a nonlinear function.
Equation 2.117 can also be written in a more appropriate
form but should have the same meaning as shown above:
Both the heap leach and municipal solid waste problems
have an important environmental component. It is antici-
pated that there will be increased public pressure to be
responsible stewards of the environment. Geotechnical engi-
neering will likely play a key role in performing advanced
numerical model simulations of complex systems.
