Dairy Effluent

Skellerup Containment Systems have extensive experience in the supply and construction of dairy effluent pond liner systems. The same exacting standards required for municipal wastewater treatment ponds also apply for dairy effluent applications.

Design and installation are critical elements for successful containment of dairy effluent ponds. A minor breach of the liner system can have disastrous affects. Effluent leakage generates methane gas; the trapped gas collects beneath the liner forming large pockets or bubbles known as whales which leads to ultimate failure of the liner system.

For this reason alone you need the security of welded seams that can be tested 100%. The welding and testing technology for HDPE liners incorporates a non-destructive test system. The dual track wedge welds allows all seams to be pressure tested. This test will pick up a pin hole.

NOTE: Skellerup Containment Systems do not use or recommend lap taped joins for dairy effluent. A taped join has no means of testing.
