There are several key differences between sediment control and erosion control. Erosion control aims to reduce and prevent the erosion of soil from repetitive impacts such as raindrops and sheet flow. Whereas sediment control deals with sediment that becomes displaced or shifted. In this blog, we discuss the importance of these control measures, the difference between erosion and sediment movement, and the control methods that you can apply.
Coir is a natural fibre that comes from coconut husk, and it’s one of the core materials in ship ropes because of its strength, durability and resistance to water damage. It is now commonly used for erosion control by placing coir logs on the banks of water bodies. Coir logs are an excellent tool for restricting erosion while allowing the environment to flourish and stabilise the ground.
The hazards of cleaning chemicals are easy to overlook and mismanage due to their commonplace use in our personal and professional lives. You don’t have to be in the cleaning industry to be impacted by hazardous cleaning chemicals in your workplace. Their handling and storage must be planned for and organised to ensure the safety of your staff and work environment.
Silt fences provide a barrier on construction sites to stop the movement of sediments when the land and soil is disturbed. These fences must remain in place until the activities disturbing the ground are complete. This means they require maintenance to keep them performing effectively. Ecospill provides quality materials to establish and easily maintain silt fences on your site. In this article, we explain the steps for regular silt fence maintenance and tips to ensure your fence remains operational for a long time.
