The unique attributes of AquaBlok have gained increased attention within the environmental community. The original application of the product was in capping of contaminated sediments but is now being used successfully in a wide range of applications. AquaBlok is a versatile product that allows for easy and quick sealing in a wide range of water, geotechnical landfill, and levee/dam type applications.

The following is a brief list of some of the more common applications:

• It is used for landfill cap penetrations for gas wells or from trenching to lay gas or leachate piping systems.
• For cut-off wall to prevent water intrusion. It can be used in fractured formations where a traditional wall will not maintain fluid.
• As a sewer pipe anti-seep/ trend dam to satisfy requirements without the use of trench box or re-compacted clay.
• Levee or dam repair or sealing through the water by strategic application to minimize seepage or erosion.
• Other geotechnical applications might include a wide range of uses such as with sandbags as a flood control tool or to seal basement walls from water and intrusion.

The superior sealing qualities of Aquablok have proven to exceed alternatives and provide convenience and ease of implementation. It has a number of technical, economic, and regulatory based advantages over current constructions methods. The primary benefits include;

1. The ease and speed of replacement.
   • You can place it directly through a water column and there is no compaction necessary. AquaBlok self compacts when wetted or hydrated which eliminates the cost and time involved with compaction equipment.
   • It can be poured directly into the trench or opening. There are no trench boxes or step cutting required with our product.
   • It handles like gravel with conventional equipment making it simple to handle and place.
2. It is a very low-permeability seal
   • It exceeds the landfill liner specifications and has undergone extensive evaluation from the U.S EPA.
   • It provides minimization of percolation of water and precipitation into the landfill and acts as a successful air tight seal.
   • No special handling or testing is required as it can be delivered to a site in packages varying from 50lb sacks to two-ton super sacks and can be easily poured or shoveled by hand.
   • The ability to act like a low permeability seal greatly increases the potential for successful re-certification of the landfill cap upon re-inspection.
3. Remains pliable and conforms to complex shapes
   
   • It forms seals against sheet pile walls or flexible membrane liners.
   • It provides structural support for piping or other geotechnical applications.
   • It has the ability to withstands free-thaw cycles
   • Its ability to self-heal and self compact with no extensive maintenance.
4. Convenient packaging and transport
   • AquaBlok products are conveniently packaged for unloading and placement.
   • There are flexible transportation arrangements to meet specific project needs.
   • On-site manufacturing is available for your convenience needs.
