SILT CURTAIN
Permathene Ltd supplies to order for a variety of applications from temporary to permanent.
Manufactured in a strong impermeable membrane (PVC or polypropylene), or a combination of impermeable membrane, slit film or monofilament geotextile and marine grade flotation devices.
Standard manufacture is in sizes from 1m to 20m curtain depth and standard boom lengths from 3m to 15m (other sizes available upon request). The design can take into account the period of exposure from temporary to permanent.
Flotation is generally by closed cell polyethylene logs. These logs are marine grade, completely enclosed within sleeves by means of fusion welding to prevent any water from entering. All fittings made from metal are corrosion resistant galvanised steel, stainless steel, brass or aluminium.
Applications:
These include waste water treatment, stormwater retention ponds, sediment control, enclosement and separation, oil and spill containment systems, mining and agriculture.
Flexible removable Permathene baffles have many advantages, such as cost effectiveness, flexibility to allow the possibility of changing the baffle's position in the pond, as well as removal for maintenance, etc.
