Fresh water is a limited commodity. Over-withdrawal of ground water supplies leads to dried-up wells and springs, shrinking wetlands and reduced stream flows and lake levels. We have a challenge to work toward sustainable resource planning. An important step in accomplishing this is to improve our understanding of the issues effecting water resources.

Abandoned coal mines with related acid mine drainage discharges are among the greatest threats to ground and surface water quality. Abandoned mine sites, along with acidic discharges, must be remediated. SPI’s chemical resistant, waterproof polymers create a seamless, protective barrier against such discharges.

Possible leaks or ruptures in petroleum pipelines transferring raw and finished products, or storage tanks, pose a threat to our water supply. SPI’s hydrocarbon resistant polyurea products, designed for primary and secondary containment applications, prevent ground contamination, while protecting our water supply.

SPI’s Envelo-Seal™ and Envelo-Pour™ foam, and specialty polyureas can be used to seal abandoned wells, mines, or non-commissioned pipelines. Our SIPP polyurea can strengthen decaying pipeline insitu, at a fraction of replacement costs.
