Geosynthetics in Mining: Heap Leach Pads, Tailings Facilities and Containment Systems

Geosynthetics in Mining: Heap Leach Pads, Tailings Facilities and Containment Systems

The mining industry is one of the largest consumers of geosynthetic materials in the world. The containment of process solutions, the management of tailings waste and the prevention of acid mine drainage to the environment all place demanding hydraulic and chemical requirements on containment systems that geosynthetics are uniquely well-placed to meet. From the copper and gold mines of South America and Africa to the ...

Rain water spray absorbing matting for vehicles

Rain water spray absorbing matting for vehicles

Another use of synthetics 3 dimensional mats. ExSpray is a rain water spray absorbing matting at the inside of mud flaps of trucks and busses. The open structure of the matting "catches" 80% of the rain drops, before spraying out adjacent to the truck. Consequently the rain water spraying effect of the tires is minimized significantly. This results in good view for the cars driving ...

OVAMAT in spawning tanks

OVAMAT in spawning tanks

Geosynthetics also helps in fishing industry, in fisheries. OVAMAT - The economical way to increase the egg holding capacity of spawning tanks OVAMAT introduces a random 3D mono filament structure throughout the bottom 180mm of the spawning tank creating a significant area of additional space within the existing facilities thus increasing its egg holding capacity. When laid in the bottom of the spawning tank OVAMAT ...

Spacers for infusion as flow medium

Spacers for infusion as flow medium

The fiberglass manufacturing industries like boat, yacht manufacturing, rotorblades of wind turbines the resin flows between the reinforcing layers. To keep glass fibre layers separated and provide an open channel for foams and resins to flow easily and quickly through molded parts a flow media is used as spacer. Very thin but still 3-D structure mats, spacers can be used as an infusion mesh or ...
