Geo Liners for Decorative Ponds

Geo liners for decorative ponds help to enhance the beauty and value of your property. Whether the pond will be for aesthetics, attracting wildlife, fishing, or lacing up your skates in the winter; there are many factors to consider when designing and building your dream pond.   Area and Depth Depending on the climate and intended use of your constructed pond, depth may be more of a factor than most people realize. If the pond will be constructed in a climate with four seasons and is intended to maintain fish stock; certain areas, depths, and slopes are suggested to allow aquatic life to thrive. For a vibrant fish population or cool swimming hole, a minimum pond area of 1/2 to 1 acre is recommended, with as much as the pond as possible reaching a depth of 15 feet and side slopes at 1:3 for fish habitat and 1:4 for swimming access. This combination of depth and relatively steep side slopes help reduce aquatic plant growth. An irregular shoreline is also helpful for fishery habitat. If

Geosynthetics Storage – It Matters!

Some geosynthetics are manufactured to withstand long term exposure to the elements, extreme temperatures, and puncture resistance. With this is mind, proper on-site material storage prior to installation is still critical. This small step can help ensure your liner materials are useable, damage free and able to live up to expectations when it comes time for installation. Element Elimination Degradation of geosynthetics can come from a variety of natural factors. Some products, such as PVC Geomembrane  and geotextile, are excellent for use in buried applications and are not formulated for extended UV exposure. Over time, sunny conditions can degrade the quality of the product; potentially impacting their long-term performance. Moisture is also a consideration for geosynthetics such as  Geosynthetic Clay Liner  (GCL). It is essential that rolls of GCL and similar materials be kept dry prior to installation, as premature hydration may result in unusable product. Another consideration is

Freshwater Aquaculture and Geomembrane Liners

Recent concerns and regulations regarding wild harvesting and marine populations have pushed aquaculture to the forefront of the field of providing fish and aquatic life to meet growing demand. The idea of raising and rearing fish, shellfish and other aquatic organisms in a controlled environment appeals to many because of the amount of oversight that may exist in such a space. However, aquaculture operators who wish to undertake or expand their foothold should ensure that their plans include environmental considerations and the proper use of   geomembrane liners .   Aquaculture Aquaculture is defined as the propagation, rearing and harvesting of organisms in all types of water environments. This includes algae, fish and shellfish, such as shrimp. The increased market demand for seafood, coupled with technological developments, has created a growing interest in aquaculture. Aquaculture products can be used for food or other commercial products, to replenish wild populations, or to rebu

Geomembrane Liners for Hydroelectric Power Plants

In a world where "going green" is the cool thing to do, harnessing water power in the form of hydroelectricity is the largest source of clean, renewable energy available today. Hydroelectric power is reported to account for 52% of renewable energy generation in the U.S. and 7% of total electricity generation, and failure to achieve reliable and consistent water flow could leave millions of people stranded. The various types of hydroelectric plants in use today each have their own unique geomembrane uses to assist in the protection and delivery of water within their systems, helping to more efficiently provide green energy to the public.   Impoundment The most common form of hydropower generation is the impoundment behind a dam. The reservoir created by the dam is the key to this system. This harnessed water flows through a turbine and connects to a generator, which in turn generates electricity and connects to the consumer. Containing as much water as possible and directing i
