The term for the liquid at the bottom of a landfill is "leachate". It consists of anything soluble in water or any solvents in the waste. Leachate is very nasty stuff and the goal of landfill design is ways to minimize the entry of water to reduce leachate generation. It is typically acidic and contains metals in solution, along with organics of all types.

Why is it that that concrete is stronger at bottom of column than on top?

when concrete is vibrated while pouring in to the form work, the cement slurry part tends to get drained through voids between aggregates and the richest part of cement slurry is detained at bottom portion of column. this causes a strong, dense, and void free concrete which ensures better compressive strength than the concrete on top portion of column.


What types of separation techniques are used when panning for gold?

One technique is flowing water over a gold collecting medium located in a sluice to induce a positive charge on the collecting medium. Then feed the gold laden material into the sluice with the following water to induce a negative surface charge on gold particles of the gold laden material and create a slurry. Setting the flow rate of the slurry into the sluice such that the gold particles are atraccted the the gold collecting medium. Then collect the gold. :-) One technique is flowing water over a gold collecting medium located in a sluice to induce a positive charge on the collecting medium.
