HDPE Dam Liners Used in Mongolian Agricultural Reservoir Project

HDPE dam liners, also known as geomembranes dam liners, are the flexible geomembrane liner materials which are heavily treated with special stabilizers providing enhanced UV, heat, and chemical resistance. The HDPE dam liner is an effective waterproof geosynthetic material product for anti seepage lining projects. HDPE geomembrane dam liners can also be used in large-scale applications requiring UV and ozone resistance and chemical resistance. The 1.5mm dam liner is a cost-effective option for reservoir projects, and it can also be widely used in aquaculture, solid waste treatment, mining, landfill and biogas digester projects. Our high-quality geomembrane dam liner is divided into smooth geomembrane, textured geomembrane, composite geomembrane, etc. All our HDPE dam liners has passed ISO9001, ISO14001, TUV, Soncap, SASO, BV and other certifications, and passed the testing of SGS, Intertek, etc., HDPE dam liner is widely used in mining, aquaculture farm projects, wastewater treatment, landfill and salt ponds.

2 Why Chose HDPE Dam Liners Mongolian Agricultural Reservoir Project

As we all know, Mongolia is a landlocked country surrounded by China and Russia. The straight-line distance from the sea is close to 1,000 km. Due to the relatively dry climate in the interior, it belongs to the continental temperate steppe climate. The average annual rainfall is only about 200 mm. Even rivers and lakes are few and far between. In systems that rely on rainwater harvesting, the safety and availability of water depends entirely on how much water people can store. Because the onset of rainfall is unpredictable, it is important for farmers to collect as much water as possible during these short rainy seasons and store it for a rainy day. Moderate water storage can greatly improve yields in rainfed agriculture by relieving short dry periods. There are many ponds on the farm, so an irrigation pond liner at the bottom helps a lot. In order to solve this dilemma, the Mongolian people began to build many small reservoirs to maintain agricultural irrigation and ensure sufficient water resources.

In the past 30 years, irrigated agricultural engineering has been an important part of agricultural production. There are huge problems with traditional flood irrigation. The traditional soil-cement stacking method used in projects such as Mongolian reservoir has been replaced by the emerging HDPE geomembrane. Today, geomembrane linings are widely used in reservoirs. HDPE dam liner can effectively prevent soil from being polluted, salinized and poisoned. HDPE geomembrane has good physical and chemical resistance, so it is widely used in reservoir applications. We use geomembrane to isolate underground heavy metals from soil to prevent the interaction between heavy metals and soil; second, the new reservoir method is simple to install, saves costs and reduces maintenance costs.  The current reservoir engineering project has already required the use of geomembrane in the bidding document.

Choosing HDPE dam liners for an agricultural reservoir project in Mongolia offers significant advantages. These liners provide exceptional impermeability, minimizing water seepage and ensuring maximum water retention for irrigation and farming purposes, even in arid regions. HDPE dam liners are highly durable, resistant to punctures, tears, and UV radiation, ensuring long-lasting protection for the reservoir. The customer’s request for 1.5mm geomembrane meeting the GM13 standard showcases their commitment to quality and compliance. Such standards likely specify the necessary thickness and strength for optimal performance. Installation of HDPE dam liners is relatively straightforward, saving time and labor costs. Additionally, they are cost-effective compared to alternative options. By choosing HDPE dam liners meeting the GM13 standard, the customer ensures a successful agricultural reservoir project with efficient water management, supporting agricultural activities in Mongolia.

3 Solution of Dam Liners for Agricultural Reservoir Project in Mongolian

We promise to provide customers with GM13 standard geomembrane, which can effectively isolate soil pollution. Based on our experience, we showed our geomembrane case in agricultural reservoir project to Mongolian customers. And in the further discussion, we know that the Mongolian customer’s agricultural irrigation project needs to purchase the geomembrane together with the geotextile. In order to convince customers of the quality of our products, we mailed geotextile and 1.5mm geomembrane samples and SGS test certificate to customers. The customer received the sample one week later and was very satisfied with the quality of our geomembrane samples. In order to further deepen the understanding of the geomembrane manufacturer, a Mongolian customer told us that he needed a video factory audit. In the afternoon of the same day, we introduced the whole process from raw materials to production to loading to customers in detail in the form of live video. We browsed our production equipment, quality inspection, etc. together with customers. Customers appreciate this method of production. Customers recognized the professionalism of geomembrane dam liners after seeing our production process and tensile test.

After we confirmed all the details about the order with the customer, the customer paid us 30% prepayment. Considering that the customer urgently needs these geomembranes to do the project, we arranged the production as soon as possible, worked overtime to ensure the quality and quantity, and completed the production within three days. The customer received the geomembrane, and under the guidance of our engineers, it was completed. All installations have since maintained a mutually beneficial and win-win partnership with customers.

5 Benifits of HDPE Liners for Agricultural Reservoir Project

The use of HDPE dam liners in Mongolian agricultural reservoir projects provides several benefits:

1. Long-Term Durability: HDPE geomembrane dam liners are highly durable and resistant to stress cracking. The careful selection of resins, such as hexene or octene copolymers, ensures their long-term performance. Tests for stress cracking resistance and tensile strength demonstrate their durability, even in structured materials.

2. Effective Waterproofing: Geomembranes, especially 1.5mm thick ones, effectively prevent leakage and pollution of heavy metals into the soil. By providing a reliable waterproof barrier, the geomembrane reduces the risk of contamination and minimizes the need for maintenance, leading to cost savings.

3. Excellent Product Performance: HDPE dam liners exhibit outstanding characteristics, including excellent chemical corrosion resistance, stress cracking resistance, low permeability, UV resistance, and stability in low temperatures. These properties ensure that the geomembrane can withstand environmental challenges and maintain its performance over time.

The use of HDPE dam liners in Mongolian agricultural reservoir projects not only ensures long-term durability but also provides effective waterproofing to prevent pollution and reduce maintenance costs. The excellent product performance of HDPE geomembranes further enhances their suitability for such applications.
