2. Geosynthetic clay liner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geosynthetic_clay_liner

   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 ...

3. Pond liner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pond_liner

   Pond liners are manufactured in rolls or accordion-folded on pallets. When deployed in the field their edges and ends are overlapped and seamed together. Methods are thermal fusion, solvents, adhesives and tapes. The edge of the pond liner is generally rolled over the top of the soil slope and secured in an anchor trench or it can be fixed to a ...

4. Geomembrane - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomembrane

   Geomembrane. A geomembrane is very low permeability synthetic membrane liner or barrier used with any geotechnical engineering related material so as to control fluid (liquid or gas) migration in a human-made project, structure, or system. Geomembranes are made from relatively thin continuous polymeric sheets, but they can also be made from the ...

5. Landfill liner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landfill_liner

   A landfill liner, or composite liner, is intended to be a low permeable barrier, which is laid down under engineered landfill sites. Until it deteriorates, the liner retards migration of leachate , and its toxic constituents, into underlying aquifers or nearby rivers from causing potentially irreversible contamination of the local waterway and ...

6. Leachate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leachate

   Leachate. A leachate is any liquid that, in the course of passing through matter, extracts soluble or suspended solids, or any other component of the material through which it has passed. Leachate is a widely used term in the environmental sciences where it has the specific meaning of a liquid that has dissolved or entrained environmentally ...

7. Geocomposite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geocomposite

   Such geocomposites are regularly used in intercepting and conveying leachate in landfill liner and cover systems and for conducting vapor or water beneath pond liners of various types. [3] These drainage geocomposites also make effective drains to intercept water in a capillary zone where frost heave or salt migration is a problem.
