With thickened tailings, tailings and liquid are combined with a flocculant to create a mix that is thicker than the traditional mix of water and tailings called "slurry". Because the tailings contain less water and are thicker, a smaller disposal area is needed for surface disposal than with a traditional tailings slurry. Also, thickened tailings solidify to a walkable state within a few days. 1, record 2, English, - thickened%20tailing

L'une des solutions de rechange en cours de développement est la filière des «résidus épaissis» [...]. Selon cette technologie, on ajoute un floculant au mélange résidus-liquide pour le rendre plus épais que le mélange traditionnel d'eau et de résidus appelé «boue». Comme les résidus contiennent alors moins d'eau et forment une masse plus consistante, l'espace nécessaire à leur élimination en surface est moins grand qu'avec les boues traditionnelles. De plus, les résidus épaissis se solidifient suffisamment en quelques jours pour supporter le poids d'un marcheur. 1, record 2, French, - r%C3%A9sidu%20%C3%A9paissi

Solvent seams use a brushed liquid solvent between the two geomembrane sheets to be joined, followed by pressure to make complete contact. These seams are used primarily on thermoplastic materials. Bodied solvent seams are similar except that 8 to 12% of the parent lining material is dissolved in the solvent and then the seam is made. Pressure is necessary and the use of heat guns or radiant heaters aids the process. A solvent adhesive uses an adherent left after dissipation of the solvent. The adhesive thus becomes an additional element in the system. 1, record 5, English, - bodied%20solvent%20seam
