2. Landfill liner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landfill_liner

   Tear resistance of a geomembrane becomes important when it is exposed to high winds or handling stress during installation. There are various ASTM methods for measuring tear resistance of geomembranes, with most common reports using ASTM D1004. Typical tear resistances show a value of 40 to 45 lb for 60-mil HDPE and 50 to 60 lb for 80-mil HDPE ...

3. Geosynthetics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geosynthetics

   Containment involves geomembranes, geosynthetic clay liners, or some geocomposites which function as liquid or gas barriers. Landfill liners and covers make critical use of these geosynthetics. All hydraulic applications (tunnels, dams, canals, surface impoundments, and floating covers) use these geosynthetics as well.

4. Geomembrane - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomembrane

   Geomembrane installation as part of the construction of a base liner system of a landfill [2] Geomembranes have been used in the following environmental, geotechnical, hydraulic, transportation, and private development applications: As liners for potable water; As liners for reserve water (e.g., safe shutdown of nuclear facilities)

5. Geosynthetic clay liner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geosynthetic_clay_liner

   Geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) are factory manufactured hydraulic barriers consisting of a layer of bentonite or other very low-permeability material supported by geotextiles and/or geomembranes, mechanically held together by needling, stitching, or chemical adhesives. Due to environmental laws, any seepage from landfills must be collected and ...

6. High-density polyethylene - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-density_polyethylene

   HDPE is known for its high strength-to-density ratio. [4] The density of HDPE ranges from 930 to 970 kg/m 3. [5] Although the density of HDPE is only marginally higher than that of low-density polyethylene, HDPE has little branching, giving it stronger intermolecular forces and tensile strength (38 MPa versus 21 MPa) than LDPE. [6]

7. Fabricated geomembranes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fabricated_Geomembranes

   Fabricated geomembranes can be used for a variety of applications including in alphabetical order: aquaculture, baffle curtains, canals, decorative ponds, deicing fluid ponds, drill pad liners for oil and gas development, exposed or floating covers, fertilizer containment, golf course ponds, hydrocarbon containment, landfill liners and covers, mine tailings ponds and heap leach pads ...
