Being part of the expansion plan of the same facility during a field operation spanning three years across four distinct phases required adapting to site dynamics while maintaining the same quality standard for each phase. Based on the base containment system established in Phase 1, new cells adjacent to existing cells were integrated in subsequent phases, with tie-in details executed during phase transitions…

The Yaramoko site in Burkina Faso's arid savanna belt required a distinct approach regarding the containment design of the waste storage facility. Since the distinct dry and rainy seasons throughout the year brought the thermal expansion/contraction behavior of the HDPE geomembrane to the forefront, the panel deployment pattern was established by taking into account diurnal temperature differences and thermal stress zones. After the subgrade preparation was completed…

The decisive factor in this work carried out for an international petroleum operator was the end-user quality specifications. Site acceptance criteria mandated compliance with international oil and gas industry standards at every stage, from geomembrane sheet thickness tolerance to the non-destructive testing rate on weld seams, and from welding operator certification to daily QA/QC reporting. At the terminal site on the Caspian coast, hydrocarbon-contacted waste and…

This application carried out on the northern axis of Izmir was one of the early examples of lining work performed for an industrial waste storage facility. Due to Cigli's location close to the coast, the high groundwater level and seasonal weather variability required keeping the time window between subgrade preparation and membrane laying tight. Carried out in coordination with the main contractor Sare Insaat…

Unlike a conventional liner deployment job, the Tepeova project was structured with an integrated delivery model where supply and installation were executed under a single roof. While the employer coordinated the site in the capacity of main contractor, the smooth progression of the geomembrane and drainage geocomposite supply chain and installation discipline without waiting for one another was decisive for maintaining the schedule. The waste generated in copper mining and…

Industrial-scale greenhouse complexes require multiple ponds with different functions, ranging from irrigation water reserves to fertilizer solution collection lines. The ponds designed in this project were positioned for the storage of water used in the greenhouse and for directing drainage water to recovery lines, therefore the containment system was designed to be resistant to both fresh water and nutrient solution contact…
