DRAINTUBE (Multilinear Drainage Geocomposites) for Environmental Applications

Synopsis:

Multilinear drainage geocomposites are a drainage dedicated family of geosynthetics. Capable of draining as well gas and water, those technical materials are used in landfill for various applications at every stage of the operation of the site. For the construction of a new cell, they are used for groundwater collection below the liner, or into the cell for leachate collection. Within the waste, they are used as finger drains in replacement of horizontal trenches for gas or leachate extraction. They are also used for temporary cover as part of the gas venting system below the temporary liner, or for final covers as gas collection system below the liner or surface water drainage system on top of the liner. We also find conductive DRAINTUBE between 2 liners in ponds to increase the efficiency of leak location surveys on non-conductive primary liner.
