On 28 December 2019, Mavi Deniz signed a contract with the Qatar Navy Base at Doha to supply a 450 m lightweight type I silent curtain anti-turbidity boom.
A silt curtain is a porous or impervious structure suspended in the water column to control migrating waterborne sediment. Also known as a turbidity curtain or silt screen, the silt curtain contains disturbed sediment about one to two meters from the surface. Controlling dispersion allows suspended sediment to settle and drop within the water column. A silt curtain provides the necessary environment and time for the suspended sediment to pay to the bottom.
Controlling sediment from construction sites, dredging, decanting, and toxic algae are simplified using a Silt Curtain. Made from tough Geofabric and PVC.
Silt Curtain Booms are ideal for many varied applications, including:
- Control of sediment and runoff from construction sites
- Control of sediment from dredging operations and dredge deposition
- Mine tailing dams to reduce suspended solids
- Control of aquatic plants
- Controlling toxic algae
