Power mining
YR products have important applications in the power and mining fields:
Application in the power field
– Substation foundation construction
Geogrids can be used for substation foundation treatment. Substation equipment is heavy and requires high stability of the foundation. For example, when building a substation on a soft soil foundation, laying geogrids can enhance the bearing capacity of the foundation, reduce the uneven settlement of the equipment foundation, and ensure the normal operation of the substation equipment.
– Transmission line tower foundation reinforcement:
In the construction of transmission line tower foundations, especially in mountainous areas or loose soil areas, geotextiles and geogrids can reinforce the soil around the tower foundation. They can prevent the tower base from tilting due to soil loss or loosening, and improve the safety and reliability of transmission lines.
– Power plant ash storage yard anti-seepage
Geomembrane plays a key anti-seepage role in power plant ash storage yards. Fly ash from power plants contains a variety of harmful substances, which will pollute the soil and groundwater if they leak into the ground. As a liner for ash storage yards, geomembranes can effectively prevent the leakage of fly ash leachate and protect the environment.
Application in the mining field
– Mine road construction:
Geotechnical materials are widely used in mine roads. Geogrids can enhance the stability of the road base and reduce road damage caused by vehicle driving. At the same time, geotextiles can be used as an isolation layer for roads to prevent the base material from mixing with the soft soil layer, improve the service life of the road, and ensure smooth mine transportation.
– Tailings pond construction and management:
In tailings ponds, geomembranes are essential anti-seepage materials. Tailings may contain harmful substances such as heavy metals. Geomembranes can prevent the leakage of tailings leachate and protect the surrounding environment. In addition, geotextiles and geogrids can be used to reinforce the dam body of the tailings pond, enhance the anti-slip ability and stability of the dam body, and prevent the occurrence of tailings pond dam failure accidents.
– Mine slope protection:
Geotechnical materials are crucial to mine slope protection. Geogrids used in combination with anchors can enhance the anti-slip ability of slopes and prevent slope collapse. Geotextiles can be covered on the surface of the slope to prevent soil erosion and promote vegetation growth, which is conducive to the restoration of the ecological environment of mines.
