Waste Covering Technology
EPI applies its TDPA™ technology
and produces some specially engineered degradable films for
the waste management industry. These films can help to entomb the waste during waste handling and disposal.
EPI's films are classified as non-reusable geosynthetic
alternative daily cover (ADC) in ASTM D6523. With TDPA™ technology, EPI's films will degrade and will
release the waste back to the landfill for degradation.
EPI's degradable films have
extremely good tear, puncture resistance and elongation
characteristics and are designed to meet the requirements for
controlling:
