EnviroSieve Dewatering Tubes

EnviroSieve Dewatering Tubes are available in a high flow and standard flow geotextile option. The high flow option is manufactured from a special mono/multifilament woven geotextile designed to provide high flow through the fabric while still filtering the fine particles. This allows more water to be pumped through the tubes in a shorter period and a higher solids content to be achieved in the tubes in a shorter period. The EnviroSieve standard flow tubes provide a cost-effective and yet effective option when the speed of dewatering in not so critical.

The Dewatering tube works effectively by:

Containing the fine grained material that is dewatered within the unique weave of the EnviroSieve textile.

Dewatering excess water through the specially constructed high flow pores of the EnviroSieve textile. There is a significant volume reduction of the material in this stage which allows for the repeated filling of the EnviroSieve product in many cases.

Consolidation of the fine grained material occurring after the final cycle of filling and dewatering. The fine grained soils contained within the EnviroSieve continue to consolidate through desiccation, with residual water vapour escaping through the unique pore structure. This results in the most effective state for final disposal of the waste.

EnviroSieve Dewatering Tubes can be custom made to the most appropriate size to suit the specific project.
