Geomembrane Drilling Pond: 53,000 m2 HDPE Lining in Dieng
Background: Challenges at Dieng’s High Altitude The Dieng area has mountainous terrain with extreme temperatures and fairly high rainfall. During the drilling preparation phase (usually for geothermal exploitation), the contractor needs a very large water supply and a safe place to contain fluids or drilling mud, which is where a geomembrane drilling pond comes in. […]
Geomembrane Benefits for Road Construction
What Is Geomembrane? Geomembrane is a type of geosynthetic in the form of a thin sheet made from high-grade polyethylene blended with carbon black, antioxidants, anti-ageing and anti-UV additives. The material resists a wide range of chemical liquids, waste and microorganisms, and has low permeability and excellent UV resistance. HDPE geomembrane is also very strong […]
Geotextile vs Geomembrane: Key Differences
Geotextile vs Geomembrane: Geotextile Geotextile and geomembrane are often used in construction projects. Many people think they are the same type of geosynthetic with the same function, but when comparing geotextile vs geomembrane, geotextile and geomembrane are made from different materials and have different functions. Geotextile is a permeable geosynthetic made from synthetic fibres that […]
Building a Geomembrane Biofloc Pond with HDPE
Biofloc is a farming technique for catfish, fish, shrimp and other farmers that uses probiotic bacteria to process the organic waste produced from digestion and leftover feed. A geomembrane biofloc pond helps make this technique very effective at increasing productivity and maintaining water conditions. Biofloc ponds usually use a circular steel frame lined with tarpaulin. […]
How to Calculate Geomembrane Quantity for a Pond
Geomembrane is a plastic liner, often called HDPE tarpaulin, commonly used to line aquaculture ponds, water storage ponds, artificial lakes, landfill projects, biogas covers and more. Before you calculate geomembrane quantity, note that it comes in several thicknesses: 0.3 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.75 mm, 1 mm, 1.5 mm and 2 mm. Let’s take a shrimp […]
Geomembrane Uses and Benefits in Construction
Geomembrane is a type of geosynthetic used as a waterproof liner, made from synthetic plastic-like materials. Geomembranes are generally produced from thin polymer sheets, but they can also be produced by impregnation. Here are the main geomembrane uses. HDPE geomembrane can also be used as a waterproof layer to separate solids and liquids, whether waste […]
