Geotextile tubes for sand confinement in hydraulic structures and sludge dehydration in mining
The GEOTEXTILE TUBES HYDROTUBE are geocontainers of tubular shape, with perimeters up to 15 m for capacities up to 12 m.3 per linear meter, which are manufactured on request according to the project conditions and are filled by hydraulic means, with a fluid mixture of sand and water or sludge. Geotextile Hydrotube for dewatering and erosion control
Hydrotube geotextile tubes: sludge and tailings dewatering processes.
Hydrotube geotextile tubes: river structures for lateral erosion control filled with sands.
Hydrotube geotextile pipe for dewatering and erosion control
GEOTEXTILE TUBES HYDROTUBE FOR HYDRAULIC STRUCTURES
They are made with GEOTEXTILE HIGH TENACITY POLYESTER FABRIC, HYDROTEXThey have high tensile, puncture and tear resistance, which tolerate handling during installation and the conditions of the structure in service. They are provided with filling and relief ports, whose location is defined according to the type of filling material. From the hydraulic point of view, they offer an adequate balance between opening size, permittivity and percentage of open area, confining the filling sand while allowing water to exit, achieving a dense final structure. Their main use is in the conformation of fluvial and maritime structures for control, channeling, protection and rehabilitation, among others.
GEOTEXTILE TUBES HYDROTUBE FOR SLURRY DEWATERING IN MINING
The GEOTEXTILE TUBES HYDROTUBE for dewatering are manufactured with the exclusive references of geotextiles HYDROTEX and HYDROMAXThe mechanical competence of these products, in addition to their mechanical competence, is also taken advantage of their adequate balance between aperture size, permittivity and percentage of open area, achieving ideal filtration and microfiltration conditions that guarantee their efficiency in sectors such as mining for tailings control and management.
As the water is drained, the solids densify and consolidate over time to achieve minimum moisture contents. Selection criteria among the references include, among others, the required dewatering capacity, operating speed, effluent water quality, reusability, available space and maintenance requirements.
