SILT PROTECTOR: Effective Waste Management Solutions

Structure

A silt protector system comprises:

Turbidity Curtain: Constructed from a reinforced double-layer geotextile, capable of withstanding external impacts and performing well in various aquatic environments, including freshwater, seawater, and fluctuating temperatures.

Floats: Provide buoyancy to maintain the stability of the curtain in water against wave action. Typically made of foam, with diameters ranging from 250mm to 500mm, and covered with a fabric layer to minimize damage. The fabric is made of waterproof PVC material, usually in yellow or orange for easy visibility.

Chain: A heavy-duty steel chain suspended and connected to the curtain to stabilize it underwater, preventing lateral movement.
Anchoring System: Used to fix the curtain in place. Anchor blocks can be concrete blocks, sand-filled anchor bags, or steel anchors.

Function

The primary function of a Silt Protector is to prevent the dispersion of waste into the surrounding water environment, isolating pollutants and minimizing their impact. When contained, the flow velocity inside the barrier is lower than outside, promoting the sedimentation of silt and sand, and slowing down the internal flow.

Applications

Preventing the dispersion of waste into the environment during marine construction and dredging operations.
Protecting water discharge areas.
Mitigating oil spills at sea.
Protecting aquaculture areas near beaches, construction sites, and coastal industrial zones.
