• Geomembranes

Landfills frequently use geosynthetic geomembranes as their lining since they are frequently made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE).

• Geotextiles

For purposes of separation, filtration, and drainage in landfill systems, geosynthetic geotextiles, typically comprised of woven or nonwoven polypropylene or polyester fibers, are used.

• Liner Systems

As a barrier, they stop contaminants and landfill leachate from escaping.

• Gas Management

As a consequence of the breakdown of organic waste, these systems trap and regulate the release of landfill gases, usually methane.

• Erosion Control

On landfill slopes and cover systems, geosynthetics—including erosion control blankets and mats—are utilized to stop soil erosion and shield against surface runoff. 

• Cap Systems

The building of final cover systems for landfills makes use of geosynthetics. They support the growth of plants, act as a barrier against infiltration, and lower the landfill’s need for ongoing management.

• Reinforcement

In the construction of landfills, weak or unstable soil layers can be reinforced using geosynthetics like geogrids and geotextiles. They increase the soil’s stability and capability for bearing weight, enabling the development of taller and more effective landfill cells.

• Monitoring and Detection

To track landfill behavior, gauge pressures, and find leaks, geosynthetics can be connected with monitoring systems.
