AGRU
Polymer-
Enhanced
GeoClay®
AGRU America’s polymer-enhanced GeoClay® is a reinforced needle-
punched geosynthetic clay liner with a polymer enhancement to
the bentonite component. This specialized product is designed to
withstand even the most aggressive leachates thanks to both the
low-permeable bentonite and the absorptive, high chemical resistant
polymer. AGRU polymer-enhanced GeoClay are designed for
moderate to steep slopes and moderate- to high-load applications,
where increased internal shear strength is required.
Applications
AGRU GeoClay serves as a component in the primary or secondary
layer in composite landfill cells and closures, mining leach pads,
tailing impoundments, and reclamations as well as a component in
composite liners for ponds and lagoons.
Technical Overview
• A
GRU GeoClay is available in roll widths of 15.5’ and
is hydraulically superior to several feet of 1×10 -7 cm/
sec compacted clay. AGRU GeoClay liner has high
internal and interface shear strength for slope stability.
• O
ne truckload covers over 90% of an acre. AGRU
GeoClay is installed more efficiently than traditional
compacted clay layers.
• G
eoClay is made of natural sodium bentonite, which
has self-healing and self-sealing properties.
• S odium bentonite is compatible with typical municipal
solid waste leachates and typical mining leachates.
• C
ompatibility can be established with other waste
streams via site-specific testing which is recommended.
• I
mproved project cost-effectiveness from reduced
CQA time and testing costs of AGRU GeoClay.
