What Are the Potential Risks of Geomembrane Failure?
While geomembranes are designed to be robust and durable, they can fail due to mechanical damage, chemical degradation, or improper installation. Such failures can lead to the release of toxic substances into the environment. The consequences of geomembrane failure can range from groundwater contamination to the endangerment of nearby communities. Regular maintenance and monitoring are essential to ensure that geomembranes continue to perform effectively.
