List of featured suppliers of GEOCOMPOSITES Drainage Landfill Cap Drainage on Building Products Index
Geocomposites are materials that consist of two or more different geosynthetic materials combined in a single product. They are commonly used in civil engineering projects for earthworks, erosion control, and drainage systems. One specific application of geocomposites is in the construction of landfill sites, where a drainage landfill cap drainage system is needed to effectively manage and control leachate - the liquid that flows through the waste at the landfill. The geocomposite acts as a drainage layer above the soil cover to facilitate the transfer of leachate to a collection system, preventing contamination of groundwater and surface water.
