Silt Curtains
What is a Silt Curtain?
WavePlus Silt Curtains are specialized floating barriers designed to contain and control sediment dispersal in water during construction, dredging, or environmental remediation. Made from high-strength geotextile fabric with flotation devices, they effectively minimize water pollution by preventing suspended sediments from spreading into sensitive aquatic ecosystems.
Key Applications of WavePlus Silt Curtains
Sediment Containment During Dredging
effectively contain suspended sediments during dredging operations, preventing turbidity and protecting water quality in sensitive aquatic environments.
Construction Site Sediment Control
Used around construction sites, reduce sediment runoff and keep disturbed soils contained to minimize environmental impact during earthworks.
Contaminated Sediment Remediation
Silt Curtains assist in isolating contaminated sediments to prevent spreading, facilitating safer and more effective remediation projects in marine and freshwater settings.
Aquaculture Water Quality Management
help maintain water clarity and quality in aquaculture farms by limiting the spread of suspended solids and pollutants.
Harbor & Marina Maintenance
During maintenance and dredging activities in harbors and marinas, contain disturbed sediments to reduce environmental disruption.
Turbidity Reduction in Marine Projects
reduce turbidity caused by underwater construction, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and protecting marine habitats.
Types of WavePlus Silt Curtains
Type I - Standard
Basic floating barrier with weighted bottom designed to contain sediment in calm waters. Ideal for lakes, ponds, and slow-moving water bodies to control sediment dispersion effectively.
Type II - Anchored
Features anchors or stakes for firm positioning. Suitable for moderate currents or tidal environments, providing enhanced stability while containing sediment.
Type III - Cofferdam / Heavy-Duty
Designed for high current or rough water conditions with additional structural support. Used in construction zones or challenging environments requiring durable sediment containment.
