Dams & Irrigation Structure Projects 

In 1995, the Lascelles Wharf facility in Geelong, Australia, underwent an upgrade to address the degradation of its existing structures. The facility replaced these elements with durable slabs designed to withstand the conditions of a high-wear, chemically aggressive marine environment. The design mix for these slabs incorporated Xypex Admix C-Series to meet the project’s requirements, ensuring strength, durability, and water impermeability.

The Las Esclusas Wastewater Treatment Plant (Las Esclusas PTAR) in the southern area of Guayaquil, Ecuador, is part of the "Project for the Universalization of Sanitary Sewerage." It was designed to improve the region's wastewater management, serving over 1 million residents. This facility, completed on October 7, 2022, reflects a shift toward more effective and sustainable construction methodologies. 

The Niwot Sanitation District (NSD) in Colorado USA, undertook a significant project to modernize its wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), driven by the need to meet new environmental standards and replace outdated infrastructure.

The rehabilitation and waterproofing project for the Ikaalisten Vesitorni Water Tower in Finland required materials certified for potable water. Its shape also presented unique challenges making it difficult to install scaffolding and access both the inner and outer basins, so traditional waterproofing methods were not suitable applications.

The Kuhankosken Vesivoimalaitos hydropower plant project in Laukaa, Finland, involved constructing a new plant adjacent to an existing one, including new underground tunnels. Besides the typical challenges of meeting stringent waterproofing requirements for the dam and other hydropower structures due to high hydrostatic pressures, the project team also faced the complexities of seamlessly integrating the new plant with the old one while adhering to a strict deadline.

The municipality of Sainte-Félicité, Quebec, Canada, constructed a new water treatment plant, including a new tank, service building, and the development and connection of two wells. Xypex’s advanced crystalline technology was used to ensure permanent waterproofing and protection of critical concrete infrastructure, particularly the reservoir’s wet well foundations and concrete apron, providing lasting durability and self-healing capabilities within the concrete structure.

For the wastewater treatment plant upgrades at Lift Station 1-2 in the City of Mulberry, Florida, Vogel Brothers Contractors and Pennoni Engineering delivered a durable concrete waterproofing and protection solution using Xypex Bio-San and Xypex Admix C-500, both known for their excellence in wastewater environments.

In 2018, Covenant University in Lagos, Nigeria, undertook a significant waterproofing and concrete protection project involving two mathematics halls and a hall of residence. The project utilized Xypex Admix, Xypex Concentrate, and Xypex Modified to ensure the highest level of durability and integrity in the treated areas.

In 2018, the Egbin Power Station in Lagos, Nigeria, undertook a significant construction project involving the stabilization of foundations and the construction of a fence. The project spanned 15 months and was marked by a critical design change midway, requiring the piles to be fabricated on land and then submerged in water. Xypex products were chosen for their proven reliability and ability to meet the project's demanding requirements.

In 2023, the Eko Atlantic project in Lagos, Nigeria, focused on the waterproofing of a concrete water tank, with Lymex Ltd as the contractor. The project aimed to enhance environmental protection, reduce material costs, and extend the service life of the water tank. Utilizing Xypex Concentrate and Xypex Patch'n Plug, the project achieved significant improvements in waterproofing, sustainability, and longevity.
