ACE Centro Enterprises supplies Sediment Containment Curtains in the UAE for dredging, marine construction, port development, land reclamation, environmental dredging, marina construction and coastal infrastructure projects.

A Sediment Containment Curtain, also known as a Silt Curtain, Turbidity Barrier, Turbidity Curtain, Sediment Control Curtain or Floating Silt Barrier, is a floating containment system designed to help control the movement of suspended sediment generated during dredging and underwater construction activities.

ACE supplies silt curtains for dredging, offshore, petrochemical and civil construction applications, with flotation elements and membrane-holding ties incorporated into the system. (acecentro.com)

The curtain can be deployed around or adjacent to an active work area to establish a controlled zone and help limit the dispersion of suspended silt and sediment.

Typical Applications
Dredging projects
Marine construction
Port development
Harbour dredging
Marina construction
Land reclamation
Sand dredging
Environmental dredging
Channel maintenance
Lake and lagoon dredging
Marine piling
Coastal construction
Seabed excavation
Sediment Containment Curtain for Dredging

Dredging operations can disturb seabed sediments and temporarily increase turbidity. A sediment containment curtain can be installed around the dredging area as part of the project's sediment-management measures.

The curtain creates a physical separation between the active dredging zone and surrounding water, helping to limit the uncontrolled movement of suspended sediment.

ACE also supplies dredging pumps, amphibious dredgers, dredging pipelines, hoses and marine equipment to support complete dredging operations. (acecentro.com)

How Does a Sediment Containment Curtain Work?

A typical system consists of:

Floating Boom → Curtain Membrane → Ballast/Weight → Anchoring System

The floating boom remains at the water surface while the curtain membrane extends vertically below the surface.

The lower portion can be weighted or ballasted to maintain the required curtain depth, while anchors help maintain the system's position.

The final configuration should be selected based on:

Water depth
Current velocity
Wave height
Tidal movement
Wind conditions
Sediment characteristics
Dredging method
Deployment duration
Sediment Containment Curtain Types
Type I – Calm Water

Suitable for relatively calm environments such as:

Lakes
Ponds
Sheltered harbours
Low-wave areas
Low-current environments

ACE describes Type I curtains as suitable for increasing settling time and helping prevent silt and sediment from spreading into surrounding areas. (acecentro.com)

Type II – Moderate Conditions

Type II systems are designed with more robust materials for moderate environmental conditions.

ACE's published specifications identify Type II curtains for wind speeds below 1 knot and wave heights below 2 feet. (acecentro.com)

Type III – Demanding Conditions

Type III systems use high-strength fabric for more demanding conditions and longer-duration deployments.

Site-specific assessment is important when determining the appropriate curtain type, anchoring system and ballast arrangement. (acecentro.com)

Sediment Containment Curtain Components
Floating Boom

Provides buoyancy and keeps the upper edge at the water surface.

Curtain Membrane

The vertical submerged section helps restrict sediment movement.

Ballast

Keeps the bottom of the curtain at the required depth.

Anchor Blocks

Help maintain the position of the curtain in the water.

ACE's marine portfolio includes silt curtains with anchor blocks for project-specific sediment-control requirements. (acecentro.com)

Key Benefits
