Composite geomembranes, combining a geomembrane layer with a geotextile or another material, offer enhanced protection, drainage, and stability features. They're widely appreciated for their dual functionality – providing both impermeability and reinforcement, making them ideal for more demanding applications where additional mechanical strength or filtration is required.
Applications of Composite Geomembranes:
- Agricultural Applications: Used in irrigation and water conservation projects, offering a combination of water retention and soil reinforcement.
- Civil Engineering: Applied in roadway and railway infrastructure for moisture barriers and soil stabilization.
- Environmental Remediation: Used in capping contaminated sites to prevent leachate migration and protect groundwater.
- Mining Operations: Employed in mining projects for heap leach pads and tailings containment, providing chemical resistance and durability.
- Water Containment: Essential in ponds, lakes, and reservoirs for leak prevention and stability, especially in areas with unstable soil.
- Waste Containment Systems: Utilized in landfills and waste treatment facilities for improved sealing and protection against contaminants.
