Our floating covers, geotextiles and geomembranes
FLOATING POND COVER PRODUCTS
AWTT floating pond cover systems are world leading systems for water, wastewater, and other cover applications. In clean and drinking water reservoirs floating covers protect the water from evaporation, algae, contamination and the loss of water treatment chemicals (such as chlorine). In waste water applications floating covers prevent odors, dissuade wildlife from accessing the pond, insulate and prevent the buildup of algae.
A floating pond cover often consists of a flexible geomembrane fixed atop a liners which provides the shade and windproofing of the pond. The liquid is then introduced between the two membranes, so that the cover floats on the surface of the liquid. AWTT floating covers are different and present several advantages compared to typical geomembranes covers. Our floating covers are composed of thousands of single, similar and symmetrical elements that automatically form a barrier on top of small and very large liquid bodies. Small openings in between those elements allow for water to flow into the reservoir. Contrary to geomembrane, rainwater will not build up on top of the cover and pumps are not required.
The level of the surface will vary depending on filling height of the covered liquid. Similarly to geomembrane, remaining elements which are located on the edge of the containment basin will float in and out of the liquid to ensure uniform coverage.
Advantages of a modular floating cover system
- NLower cost and lower maintenance than traditional geomembrane floating cover
- NResist high winds over 75 MPH*
- NPrefabricated with heavy duty, UV stable material to reduce costs
- NRainwater flow to the pond underneath, without the use of pumps or other complicated devices
- NA cost-effective solution for evaporation control and algae
- NAllow for moving and dipping equipment to be installed
FLOATING COVER APPLICATIONS
TRADITIONAL MODULAR FLOATING COVERS
FRAC PIT FLOATING COVERS
INSULATED FLOATING COVERS
ABOVE GROUND STORAGE TANKS COVERS
Our Above Ground Storage Tank (AST) covers are engineered for optimal stability in high winds combined with the most durable reinforced shell material to ensure longevity and re usability across multiple tanks. They are fully compatible with any tank shape and allow for piping and AST system appurtenances that protrude into the tank’s interior perimeter as contained water levels rise and fall. Unlike solid cover, there are no risk or sagging on field configuration required. We also offer a lightweight insulated covers, also fully compatible with any type configuration, and is 100% reusable over numerous installations (unlike membrane covers).
CLARIFIER FLOATING COVERS
AWTT offers different type of modular floating cover that economically block sunlight, prevent algae, stop evaporation, provide insulation and can be configured to help resist strong winds. The buoyancy of bllasted floating cover system eliminates the need for ancillary floats required by typical cover membrane types, saving installation time and money. No rods, no reels, no special hardware in general is required to secure those cover. There is also no maintenance necessary over the life of our floating cover systems.
