Landfill Closure & Cover High Solid Storm Runoff Mitigation Matrix
in Dubai

Calcareous sands and sabkha deposits demand stringent subsoil stabilization before you apply anything to the surface. You must build erosion controls that survive massive wind transport and hypersaline groundwater. Spray halophytic plant seed and advanced tackifiers to force vegetation to grow against brutal wind shear.

Operational Constraints for Landfill Closure

Daily and intermediate landfill covers face severe wind erosion, off-gassing, and strict regulatory leachate controls. Loose soils blow offsite or wash into drainage systems, instantly triggering compliance violations. The objective is to seal the surface without adding excessive weight or moisture to the waste mass. You need a high-viscosity hydraulic hydro-cap that forms a durable crust over the refuse. The polymer must lock in dust and aggressively repel rainwater to prevent it from infiltrating the cell and increasing the site's expensive leachate treatment volume.

1,500-3,500 Application Rate (Lbs/Acre)
99.9% Erosion Reduction

Meeting Dubai RTA General Specification for Roads Specifications

OHRA GreenTack & ViscoLok anchors seed and mulch directly to the subsoil, providing the rain-fast shear strength required by Dubai RTA General Specification for Roads. Its microplastic-free botanical hydrocolloid network forms a 3D matrix. It resists high-velocity storm runoff and keeps synthetic toxins out of the watershed.

The matrix prevents "fisheye" lumping inside your hydroseeder pump. This stops pump cavitation and reduces friction head loss. You maximize your tank's spray payload and eliminate constant agitation adjustments on the job site.

Field Troubleshooting Guide

Field Symptom Likely Cause Immediate Job-Site Fix
Slurry Too Thick / Hard to Pump Exceeded recommended loading ratio Add 50 gallons water & agitate 2 mins
Foam Overflowing Tank Hatch High-shear agitation air entrainment GreenTack maintains a low-foaming profile during high-shear agitation
Nozzle Spitting or Clogging Commodity tackifier agglomerations (fisheyes) GreenTack's dispersion modifiers prevent fisheye formation
