DRAINTUBE FT/PE - Water and gas drainage for caps

Marquage CE

Use

At the end of their operation, landfill cells must be closed and covered with topsoil. To prevent the ingress of rainwater in waste, a water barrier must be installed in the cover using DRAINTUBE® FT/PE.

This solution is used on cell caps to drain rainwater and provide the cap with a water barrier in a single product. It consists of a DRAINTUBE® FT combined with a geomembrane which may have a textured underside to increase cover stability.

Connection to the collector via the Quick Connect system

The Quick Connect system directly connects the mini-drains from the DRAINTUBE® FT/PE to the main collector drain. In the event of gas drainage, it generates negative pressure in the entire system.

 

Benefits

  • Rapid drainage of seeping rainwater
  • Water barrier in the cover thanks to the overlapping of the geomembrane
  • Cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution, does not require any granular material
  • Stability of slopes and domes for revegetation
  • Preservation of the mechanical characteristics of the containment layer
