FGI Webinar: Geomembrane Baffle Curtains to Enhance Water and Wastewater Treatment

Geomembrane baffle curtains play a critical role in optimizing municipal and industrial water and wastewater treatment processes. Their exceptional chemical resistance, flexibility, and tensile strength make them well‑suited for directing flow and improving treatment efficiency in potable water reservoirs, wastewater lagoons, and industrial process water systems. By increasing hydraulic retention time and reducing short‑circuiting, baffle curtains help enhance overall water quality and operational performance.

These systems effectively eliminate dead zones and improve the removal of key contaminants such as BOD, COD, and TSS (total suspended solids). This webinar will explore the various geomembrane materials used in baffle curtain fabrication, along with common baffle curtain design configurations for ponds, reservoirs, underground clearwells, and above‑ground storage tanks.

It will also provide an overview of manufacturing and installation methods. Presenters: Brian Fraser & Justin Gouthreau (Layfield Geosynthetics)
