Posi-Shell® Applications:
Daily, Intermediate, and Long-Term Cover
Posi-Shell® has been approved for daily cover, intermediate and long-term cover for landfills, stockpiles, and hazardous waste sites. The primary component of the formulation is a cementitious mineral binder reinforced with structural composite fibers, which results in excellent resistance to erosion and cracking and provides long-term durability in various weather conditions.
Applying Posi-Shell cover is a simple one-person operation using either the specialized Posi-Shell equipment or a standard hydroseeding unit. One load of Posi-Shell requires just one hour for mixing, application, and rinse-out. Landfill operators realize a huge savings in airspace, labor, machinery, and fuel costs through use of the Posi-Shell Cover System over traditional soil cover.
After application, the Posi-Shell slurry hardens to a non-flammable and highly impermeable coating that easily conforms to the irregular contours of a landfill. Its color and texture provide a uniform appearance that is aesthetically appealing to nearby residents; and because of its inherent alkalinity, Posi-Shell suppresses typical landfill odors as well.
Posi-Shell is highly effective in preventing wind-blown litter, landfill fires, scavenging, and vector problems. Posi-Shell has met the rigorous standards required for approval by numerous state regulatory agencies and has been favorably evaluated for Superfund use by the USEPA. Made of non-flammable, non-toxic materials, Posi-Shell is an environmentally compatible, multi-purpose landfill cover solution.
