Geosynthetic Lining



Geosynthetic LiningGeosynthetic Lining

Geosynthetic lining systems consist of either geomembrane or a combination of other geosynthetics like geosynthetic
clay liner, which will arrest / prevent seepage & prevent contamination of aquifers.


Applications:

A. Hydraulic structures

  • Canals
  • Power channels
  • Ponds
  • Industrial reservoirs

B. Landfill / waste containment structures

  • Hazardous waste landfills
  • High volume waste disposal facilities (ashdykes, red mud pond, gypsum disposal sites)
  • Municipal solid waste landfills
  • Landfill capping


C. Industrial linings

  • Effluent pond/ waste water ponds
  • Waste pits
  • Sludge disposal pits
  • Oil tank pads

Advantages:

  • Geomembrane eliminates the water loss through seepage.
  • Geomembrane is highly flexible to withstand stresses due to any differential settlements, thermal stresses, high hydraulic pressures, etc.
  • Improves canal hydraulics, equity and reliability of water distribution
  • In canals, it reduces water logging and salining of the adjoining land.
  • Geosynthetics like geosynthetic clay liner can replace the clay materials.
  • Geocomposite net acts as suitable replacement for sand / gravel as drainage medium.
  • Geosynthetic liner system arrests the seepage of contaminated / hazardous leachate from the waste facilities.
  • Installation of geosynthetic lining is simple and easy.
