Landfill lining to MWAN requirements
MWAN's landfill guidelines set a minimum geomembrane for each landfill category and require every liner to be installed, tested and documented under an approved CQA plan.

| Category | Landfill type | Geomembrane layer |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Hazardous wasteمردم النفايات الخطرة | Minimum 2.5 mm HDPE, OR double liner with leak detection: 2.0 mm HDPE + geocomposite drainage layer + 2.0 mm HDPE |
| 2 | Non-hazardous wasteمردم النفايات غير الخطرة | Minimum 1.5 mm HDPE |
| 3 | Inert wasteمردم النفايات الخاملة | Geomembrane not required (depends on the liner system used) |
Final thickness follows the approved design and may be increased based on the project's risk assessment.
