Geomembrane And Utilization In Construction Work

Geomembrane is a geosynthetic material used for construction work that serves as a water barrier, made ​​of HDPE (Hight Density Polyethylene) or LDPE (Low Density polyethylen). Geomembrane is made of waterproof material, resistant to corrosion, oil, acid and high heat, and is often used for construction work as a protective ground to prevent landslides.Geomembrane sheet-shaped material made ​​from HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) which has a very high level of impermeability and serves as a very homogeneous layer waterproof (impermeable liner), in addition to having high impermeability Another advantage of this material is highly resistant to UV and chemicals dangerous, makes a good impermeable layer in order to avoid contamination of ground water from the sewage pond accommodated , which is sometimes not only dirty water, but also contains hazardous waste. There are several types of geomembrane thickness in the election depends on the state of the field is possible or not and also the type and levels of chemicals or waste to be disposed of. In the construction (installation), geomembrane requires dialing a special tool. Geomembrane welding machine specifically requires the Extrusion and Hot Wedge WelderUse of geomembrane usually used for the following projects :

• Clean water ponds
• Basic coating landfills ( Landfill )
• artificial reservoirs
• Channel / canal
• Waste water treatment ( waste water treatment )
• Sanitary landfill lining and capping
• reservoir
• Coal Ash Disposal
• Pond lining, ornamental pond on the golf course , etc.

Benefits of Using Geomembrane :

• A very high level of impermeability and also quality control homogeneous
• Resistance to ultraviolet and harmful chemicals .
• Very effective and economical price
• The construction is very fast and easy
• Flexible structure so as to reduce the differential settlement
• Elongation has a large
• Pemasanga can be formed according to the form of an

This material is usually used as a substitute for concrete coatings , geomembrane resistant to acid , gasoline and high heat so the discussion may be useful to add your knowledge
