Typical maintenance requirements for geomembranes in mining containment systems involve regular inspections, repairs, and preventive measures to ensure their continued effectiveness. Inspections are conducted to identify any signs of damage, degradation, or wear, such as punctures, tears, or UV degradation, which could compromise the geomembrane's integrity.
Repairs are then carried out to address any issues detected during inspections, using compatible materials and techniques to restore the geomembrane's impermeability. Preventive measures, such as covering geomembranes with protective materials or shading structures to minimize UV exposure, are implemented to extend their lifespan and enhance their performance.
