Water lance survey using cherry picker on 10m/30ft high walls
After
performing electrical liner integrity and leak location surveys
for over 17 years I-CORP's emphasis is now on teaching the
technology to others (with TRI/T-CLIC),
locating troublesome leaks (as opposed to final CQA surveys),
and performing more unusual surveys (above). In addition
to conventional applied potential electrical techniques,
I-CORP also uses natural potential (for GCLs), acoustic (for
batten strips), and infrared spectroscopy (landfill gas monitoring)
techniques.
