Question:

Are banana and coconut fibers good for use as geotextiles?

Basically I'm thinking of doing a thesis defense on this topic and I want to know if it is any good.

Answer:

Any bio-degradable material is not a better substitute for a geotextile material in long run Materials from polymer family may suit better, like Polyamide Polypropylene Polyethylene My answer refers to about having the ability to separate, filter, reinforce, protect, or drain If your purpose of using geotextile material regarding Beach Erosion, Riverbank Erosion, then coconut fibers is a better option
