BAUER Spezialtiefbau GmbH – Dike Remediation for Potash Production in Jordan (with Arabic Subtitles)

https://www.bauer.de/bst/ The term "potash" is still colloquially used to refer to various salts containing the element potassium. In many regions of the world, potassium salts are extracted from large underground deposits left behind by dried-up prehistoric seas. The Dead Sea is also a rich source of potassium salt. The Arab Potash Company in Jordan uses this natural resource as the basis for the production of potash. For this purpose, salt water from the Dead Sea is pumped into large earth basins, where the much sought-after potash is created by evaporation. BAUER International FZE, subsidiary of BAUER Spezialtiefbau GmbH, has been contracted to construct a total of 112,000 m² of cut-off wall with embedded sheet piles over a length of 4.2 km adjacent to a main perimeter dike for the purpose of limiting seepage through the said dike and retain the brine in the related solar pond. #bauerspezialtiefbau #passionforprogress #bauerpower Ganzen Artikel lesen
