Erosion Control for Industrial and Environmental Sites

Synthetex manufactures concrete mattresses that provide superior protection for geomembranes, channel embankments, and cooling ponds in industrial sites and plants.

Perhaps the most wide-ranging market we serve, the industrial, environmental, and containment industry spans a wide array of use cases, projects, and needs. We at Synthetex know no standard solution will meet the requirements of your project, which is why our HYDROTEX® fabric-formed concrete mattresses and grout bags are 100% custom-made depending on the project.

The best part? HYDROTEX® is permanent. After installation, it requires minimal maintenance and upkeep, diminishing long-term costs.

Erosion Control Solutions for Coal-Fired Power Plants

When designing and operating a thermal power plant, the by-products and their effects have to be heavily considered.

Waste heat energy, which remains due to the finite efficiency of the power cycle, is released directly into the atmosphere, directly to river or lake water, or indirectly into the atmosphere using a cooling tower with river or lake water used as a cooling medium. Synthetex’s HYDROTEX® Fabric Formed Concrete mattresses are often used as erosion protection for the side slopes of water cooling channels and retention basins.

Fly ash, or flue-ash, is a residue generated typically in coal combustion that makes up the fine particles that rise with flue gases. Ash that does not rise is called bottom ash.

Fly ash is generally stored at coal power plants or placed in landfills. HYDROTEX® Fabric Formed Concrete mattresses are often used as erosion protection for the side slopes of fly ash containment and settling ponds.

About 43% is recycled as pozzolan. Fly ash is often used as a pozzolan and partial replacement for Portland cement in the production of fine aggregate concrete. Pozzolans ensure the setting of concrete and provide concrete with more protection from wet conditions and chemical attack. The fine aggregate concrete utilized for filling of HYDROTEX® fabric forms typically replaces up to 35% of the cement content with fly ash.

Nuclear Power Plants

As with the conventional generation of power, waste heat energy remains due to the finite efficiency of the power cycle.

It is then released into the environment or into cooling towers and channels. HYDROTEX® fabric-formed concrete is the best erosion protection product for these channels.

Power plant reactor fuel rods spend approximately three operational cycles (typically six years total) inside the reactor, typically until the point where about 3% of their uranium has been fissioned.

At that point, they are moved to a spent fuel pool where the short-lived isotopes generated by fission can decay away. After approximately five years in a spent fuel pool, the spent fuel is then radioactively and thermally cool enough to handle, at which point it can either be moved to dry storage casks or reprocessed. HYDROTEX® is an apt solution for the protection of spent fuel pools.

Why choose HYDROTEX® for your industrial, environmental, and containment project?

Whether you need concrete channel lining, pipeline cover protection, or erosion protection for a retention pond, we are here to help.

HYDROTEX® fabric-formed concrete mattresses are the top solution for industrial engineers, environmental engineers, and containment professionals seeking to diminish the environmental footprint of their plant or manufacturing site.

Are you working on a project site that requires one or multiple of these solutions? Our engineers are here to help. We have over three decades of experience manufacturing geosynthetics for industrial, environmental, and containment projects and can find the perfect solution for you.

We will recommend experienced installers and contractors to ensure installation progresses smoothly.
