Ukusetshenziswa kwe-geomembrane kubunjiniyela be-hydraulic
I-geomembrane, njengezinto ezisebenza kahle ezingangeni amanzi, idlala indima ebalulekile kumaphrojekthi okonga amanzi. Ukusebenza kwayo okuhle kakhulu kokungangeni amanzi, izici zokwakha ezilula nezilula kanye nezindleko eziphansi kwenza i-geomembrane ibe yingxenye ebalulekile yamaphrojekthi okonga amanzi.
Okokuqala, ekwakhiweni kwamachibi okugcina amanzi, i-geomembrane ingadlala indima enhle kakhulu yokulwa nokuvuza kwamanzi. Ngenxa yokuthi amachibi okugcina amanzi avame ukwakhiwa ezigodini noma ezindaweni eziphansi, izimo ze-geological ziyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu, ngakho-ke kudingeka kuthathwe izinyathelo ezisebenzayo ukuze kugwenywe ukuvuza phakathi kwesisekelo sedamu kanye nedwala elizungezile. Ukusetshenziswa kwe-geomembrane kungaxazulula ngempumelelo le nkinga, futhi kungathuthukisa nokuphepha nokuzinza kwedamu lonke.
Okwesibili, kuyadingeka futhi ukusebenzisa i-geomembrane ukuqinisa umphumela wokungangeni kwamanzi ngesikhathi sokwakhiwa kwama-levee. I-dike isakhiwo esenziwe ngumuntu esinenjongo eyinhloko ukuvikela indawo engezansi komfula ezikhukhuleni. Kodwa-ke, enkambisweni yokwakha, kuzoba nezici eziningi ezingalindelekile eziholela ezinkingeni, ngalesi sikhathi, kuyadingeka ukusebenzisa i-geomembrane ukuze kulungiswe.
Okwesithathu, ekubusweni komfula neziteshi, i-geomembrane nayo inezinhlobo eziningi zezicelo. Imifula neziteshi ziyizingxenye ezibaluleke kakhulu zamaphrojekthi okulondolozwa kwamanzi, azikwazi nje kuphela ukulawula ukugeleza kwamanzi, ukuvikela ingqalasizinda yezolimo neyasemadolobheni, kodwa futhi zithuthukisa indawo ezungezile yesifunda sonke. Kodwa-ke, enkambisweni yokuphatha uzobhekana nezinkinga ezinzima, njengezihibe, ukudilika komhlaba njalo njalo. Ngalesi sikhathi ukusetshenziswa kwe-geomembrane kungaba yisisombululo esihle kulezi zinkinga.
