“…Natural geotextiles degrades to form organic mulch and held in weak establishment of vegetation. Jute geotextile degrades in 1 to 2 years, dry grasses, coco coir geotextile and Banana leaf fiber, geotextile degrades 1 to 2 to 3 years (Adhikary et al, 2019).…”

“…Geotextile application in soil location specific so in addition to the characteristics of geotextiles, identification and application of geotextiles depends on soil types, soil compaction, moisture content, liquid limits, plasticity index, bulk density, soil pH, iron/ calcium content, clay / silt and sand composition, land sloping and hydrolic action (Adhikary et al, 2019).Geotextiles used for re-vegetation and soil stabilization and wherever the upper layer of the soil has to be preserved from wind and water erosion and conserved soil moisture during the establishment of a vegetation cover.…”

“…Nowadays, whether it is the stabilization of soil in arid regions or the river banks and seafronts (in tidal areas or harbor infrastructure), ground reinforcement for civil infrastructure or filtration of water excess in farmlands and flood protection, hill slopes stabilization and drainage or even the reinforcement of airstrips under the tarmac layer, geotextiles are successfully performing in civil engineering and agriculture and becoming an increasingly viable alternative in many other applications. Geosynthetics, the geotextiles made of synthetic polymers (such as PP, PE, PET and PVC) manufactured as fibers, are used in notably large amounts as the polymer production is cost-effective and the corresponding fibers are easily obtained by melt spinning using already existing technology [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. Their remarkable mechanical properties (mainly tensile strength), durability and hydrophobicity make them fit for geotechnical engineering applications, such as the improvement of the bearing capacity of the ground in preparation of construction sites [17].…”

Geotextiles, a group of high-performance materials, have grown during the last decades into needful auxiliaries when it comes to infrastructure, soil, construction, agriculture and environmental applications. Although geotextiles made of synthetic fibers (geosynthetics) are considered a modern achievement, the basic concept dates back to ancient times when textiles consisting of locally available natural fibers were employed to increase the stability of roads and soils. In recent decades, considering the growing interest in environmental protection and sustainable development based on using renewable resources and the recovery and recycling of waste of various origins, the use of natural fibers-based geotextiles is a viable alternative, despite their limited-life service owing to their biodegradability. In addition to this feature, their low cost, good mechanical properties and large-scale accessibility recommend them for geo-engineering applications, environmental sensitive applications in geotechnical engineering, such as land improvements and soil erosion control. This paper focuses on geotextiles as a versatile tool in environmental applications given their high theoretic and practical relevance as substantiated by recent literature reports. Natural and synthetic geotextiles are presented herein, as well as their features that recommend them for geo-engineering. Insights on the main types of applications of geotextiles are also included, along with a wide variety of materials employed to perform specific functions.
