Floating Cover

A floating cover is a protective barrier designed to rest on the surface of liquids, such as water or wastewater. Typically made from durable materials like geomembranes or reinforced plastics, floating covers serve several purposes, including preventing evaporation, reducing odors, controlling temperature, and minimizing contamination. They are commonly used in various industries, including wastewater treatment, agriculture, and environmental remediation, to conserve resources, improve water quality, and maintain regulatory compliance.

What is a Floating Cover?

A floating cover is a flexible, impermeable membrane designed to float on the surface of a liquid. It creates a barrier between the liquid and the external environment, preventing contamination, evaporation, and emissions. These covers are typically made from materials such as reinforced polyethylene (RPE), reinforced polypropylene (RPP), or geomembrane liners, chosen for their durability, UV resistance, and chemical resistance.

How Do Floating Covers Work?

Floating covers work by floating atop the liquid, adapting to fluctuations in liquid levels while maintaining a secure seal around the edges. They are anchored at the perimeter to prevent movement and can include features like gas collection systems, rainwater drainage, and insulation layers. This adaptability and versatility make floating covers ideal for a wide range of liquid storage applications.

What Are the Benefits of Using Floating Covers?

Floating covers offer numerous benefits, including environmental protection by preventing the release of harmful gases and odors, reducing evaporation, and minimizing the risk of contamination. They also lead to significant cost savings by conserving stored liquids and improving operational efficiency by maintaining optimal conditions for various applications.

In Which Applications Are Floating Covers Used?

Floating covers are used in a variety of applications, such as wastewater treatment facilities, potable water storage, and industrial liquid storage. In wastewater treatment, they control odors and reduce evaporation. In potable water storage, they prevent contamination and algae growth. In industrial settings, they help manage contamination and control odors.
