The main vulnerability for a good performance of these crops in the lowlands, in rotation with rice, is the poor natural drainage of these soils (Pinto et al., 2004) owing to the use of
horizontal drainage systems.
Feeding is via a
horizontal drainage screw, reportedly eliminating most of the surface moisture before material enters the dryer.
The distance between the injection hole and the
horizontal drainage hole is 0.6 m.
Dimensionless numbers (see (1), (2), and (3)) were then used to characterize the different flow experiments in the three samples, namely,
horizontal drainage, horizontal imbibition, vertical drainage, and vertical imbibition.
ALYAF recently joined forces with GEOfabrics Limited, a UK-based company specillizing in the manufacture of geocomposites to create a range of products for a variety of civil and environmental engineering applications like landfills, gas venting systems, vertical and
horizontal drainage, roof gardens, salt barriers and capillary break layers.

horizontal drainage under ramp load," Geotechnique, vol.
StrataWeb - - Perforations allow
horizontal drainage relief while confining infill materials
The author will continue the researches by applying the general relationship for calculating the nonpermanent drainage system, equation which provides a methodology for the study of
horizontal drainage tube in the most complex conditions, including consideration of hydraulic impacts in the vicinity of drain (Wehry et al., 1982).
Nicholson considers the vertical drainage systems associated with synthetic tracks to be "a huge leap forward" compared with the
horizontal drainage on dirt tracks.
horizontal drainage pumps of nominal 1,200-cfs capacity, partially enclosed in a building with all necessary ancillary equipment.
* The cost of
horizontal drainage has a tendency to increase since the location of larger pump stations has to be protected from damage from the working stopes
