MaviDeniz’s Silt Curtain and Turbidity Curtain is explicitly designed to contain and control the dispersion of turbidity and the silt and sediments in water or near marine construction activities and by dredging operations. Our turbidity and silt control specialists will help you conform to all regulations and requirements that might apply to your project.

Project Types

MAVI DENIZ Silt Curtain and Turbidity Curtain is the ideal solution for any construction project, including:

  • Dredging
  • Bridge construction
  • Dam removal and restoration
  • Marina/harbor projects (bulkheads, piers, retaining walls)
  • Port and terminal projects (groins, dikes, breakwaters)
  • Ferry landings
  • Pipeline crossings
  • Coastal and shoreline restoration and rehabilitation
  • Intake construction

MaviDeniz’s Silt Curtain and Turbidity Curtain offer the smallest storage volume of solid float boom types and can be stored on racks, pallets, and containers. Systems incorporate storage/deployment boxes, towing bridles, anchor systems, and repair kits.

Silt Curtain and Turbidity Curtain manufactures in 25 m standard sections, connecting with galvanized steel U-bolts or ASTM. MAVI DENIZ Silt Curtain and Turbidity Curtain are available in three sizes and models.

Silt Curtain and Turbidity Curtain Design Criteria;

TYPE I – Should be used in protected areas with no current, and the area is sheltered from wind and waves.

TYPE II – Should be used in areas with slow to moderate running current ( up to 2 knots or 3.5 feet per second ) or wind and wave action affecting the curtain.

TYPE III – Should be used in areas where considerable current ( up to 3 knots or 5 feet per second ) may be present, where tidal action may be present, or where the curtain is potentially subject to wind and wave action.

Our silt and sediment curtain is used to

  • Control of sediment on water-based ( or adjacent ) construction operations
  • Control of sediment both from dredging operations and from dredge deposition
  • Mine tailings dams to reduce the number of suspended solids at decants
  • Pre-filtering of potable water to remove leaf litter and fire debris ( ash )
  • Control of toxic algae Control of aquatic plants
  • The screen of large solids in effluent treatment ponds
  • Mine tailings overflow screening
