How It Works
Geo Tube Environmental Dewatering
1st, a large reduction in volume of the slurry material is achieved as water is removed from the waste.
2nd, the contaminated sediment is changed from liquid to solid that can be earily handled and disposed of in waste storage facilities.
Filling
Sludge is pumped into geotextile tube. In most cases, coagulant and flocculant are added to the sludge, which makes the collapse of sludge structure also traps heavy metals and organic contaminants, produces relatively large amounts of free water. Our unique geotextile fabric that capture bonded particles.
Dewatering
The effluent drains from geotextile tube through the small pores in our specially woven geotextile. This results in effective dewatering and dramatically volume reduction of the sludge. The volume reduction allows for repeated filling of the geo tube. Clear effluent can be collected and recirculated through flow system.
Consolidation
After dewatering, the solids remain in the geo tube and continue to densify due to eliminate remianing free water and solids pore water vapor escapes through the geotextile fabric. When full, the geo tube can be deposited at a landfill, remain on site, or the solids can be removed and land applied when appropriate.
Geo Tube Marine Structural
Geo tube works in marine structural similar as works in environmental dewatering. The only difference is marine structure geotextile tube always filling with sand or sand like slurry, it is no need chemical treatment and no consolidation stage or consolidation stage is very fast.
