Case Study: Geomembrane Application in Landfill Liners – Yurun Geosynthetics Verified Solution

Introduction

As environmental regulations become increasingly stringent, geomembranes have emerged as the critical component in modern impermeable engineering. This case study examines the performance of HDPE geomembrane (1.5mm smooth surface) in a [Province] Municipal Landfill Project, demonstrating replicable technical solutions for the industry.  

  1. Project Background

Key Data:

Local EPA 202X reports classified this landfill’s leachate pollution risk as Level III

Required high-performance geomembrane meeting ASTM GM13 standards

Selected product: Yurun’s HDPE Geomembrane with verified specifications:

Tensile Strength: ≥25kN/m

Puncture Resistance: ≥500N

Permeability Coefficient: ≤1×10⁻¹³ cm/s

  1. Critical Installation Technologies

Geomembrane Construction Best Practices:

  1. Subgrade Preparation

Deployed **600g/m² nonwoven geotextile** as protective layer

Ensured zero damage to the impermeable geomembrane liner

 

2.Welding Process

Dual-track hot wedge welding** at 280±10℃

All seams passed **air channel testing** (0.2MPa/5min pressure hold)

3.Anchoring System

Stainless steel batten bars + chemical anchors

So lved cracking issues from conventional concrete anchoring

  1. Quality Verification Data

|Test Parameter|Standard Requirement|Actual Result|

|Peel Strength (Welds)|≥15N/mm|18.3N/mm|

|Hydrostatic Resistance|≥0.6MPa| 0.82MPa|

|UV Aging Strength Retention|≥80%|89.7%|

  1. Project Achievements

Leachate collection efficiency:99.6% (Exceeding GB16889-2008 standards)  

40% faster installation** vs traditional clay liners

Client testimonial: “Though reinforced geomembrane cost was higher upfront, it reduced long-term maintenance expenses by 60%.”

5 Industry Recommendations

Preferred applications for textured geomembrane:

Slope protection (>1:3 gradient)  

Tailings ponds requiring geomembrane-geotextile composites

 

 

Conclusion

Yurun Geosynthetics – ranked among China’s Top 10 Geomembrane Manufacturers – has delivered 200+ customized containment solutions worldwide.
