The role of geomembranes
Geomembrane is a material used in civil engineering and environmental protection. Its main role is as follows:
1, seepage control: geomembrane can effectively prevent moisture, chemicals, etc. from seeping into groundwater or surface water, and play the role of waterproof seepage control. This is important for underground engineering, water conservancy projects, etc., can protect the engineering structure from moisture erosion.
2, enhance the stability of the soil: geomembrane can be used as a reinforcing material for the soil, enhance the stability and bearing capacity of the soil, used for roadbed, slope, dam and other soil structures to strengthen, reduce the deformation of the soil settlement, improve the safety and stability of the project.
3, isolation: geomembrane can isolate the impurities and pollutants in different soil layers or different geological environments, preventing them from infiltrating each other and cross-pollution, and playing the role of environmental protection. This is important for landfills, chemical plants and other places of pollution prevention and control.
4. Protection: geomembrane can protect the ground and underground structures from the erosion and damage of the external environment, to extend the service life of the project. For example, it can be used for waterproof protection of roads, bridges, tunnels and other projects to reduce structural damage caused by water erosion.

Geomembrane Application
1. Mining
The application of geomembrane in mining involves seepage control, covering, groundwater control, enhancing soil stability, environmental protection and many other aspects, which plays an important role in safeguarding mine safety and reducing environmental pollution.
①Tailings storage seepage control: mining process will produce a large number of tailings, in order to prevent harmful substances in the tailings infiltration into groundwater or surface water, the need to build tailings storage. Geomembrane can be used as the impermeable layer of tailings storage, effectively preventing the infiltration of tailings and protecting the surrounding environment from pollution.
②, yard cover: open-pit mining ore needs to be stacked, geomembrane can be used as a yard cover, to prevent the stacked ore from contacting with the atmosphere, moisture, reduce chemical reactions and pollutants overflow.
③, leachate seepage control: some metal smelting, extraction process will produce leachate, leachate contains a variety of harmful substances, geomembrane can be used as a leachate pool seepage control layer, to prevent leachate seepage into the groundwater or surface water causing environmental pollution.
④. Groundwater level control: In the process of mining, it may be necessary to control the groundwater level to prevent groundwater from gushing into the mine or affecting the mining operation. Geomembrane can be used as groundwater isolation layer to effectively control the groundwater level.
⑤. Enhance the stability of soil: In some mining areas, due to mining activities, the soil may lose its stability and be prone to collapse or landslide. Geomembrane can be utilized as reinforcing material to enhance the stability of soil body and reduce the occurrence of geological disasters.
Environmental protection: mining will cause some damage to the surrounding environment, the application of geomembrane can reduce the impact of mining activities on the environment, to protect the integrity and stability of the natural ecosystem.
