Fold-and-Form: DN600 River-Crossing Sewer Rehabilitation in Zhejiang

The pipeline exhibited severe corrosion, misaligned joints, and multiple inverted bends exceeding 70 degrees - with one inspection chamber completely inaccessible beneath power conduits.

The Challenge:


A routine inspection revealed a critical failure in a DN600 sewer line crossing beneath a riverbank in Zhejiang. The pipeline exhibited severe corrosion, misaligned joints, and multiple inverted bends exceeding 70 degrees - with one inspection chamber completely inaccessible beneath power conduits. As wastewater leaked into the river, the urgency for a non-disruptive solution became paramount.




Our Innovative Solution:


Facing extreme geometric challenges and environmental sensitivities, our team implemented a phased approach:


  1. Precision spot repairs to immediately contain active leaks


  2. Advanced fold-and-form thermoplastic lining that:


  • Conformed perfectly to the 70° bends without compromising hydraulic capacity

  • Created a seamless, structural renewal within the existing pipe

  • Required zero excavation near critical infrastructure




Why This Matters:


This project demonstrates how modern trenchless technology can solve what were once considered "impossible" rehabilitation scenarios - particularly where:


  • Extreme pipe geometries exist

  • Environmental protection is crucial

  • Traditional excavation isn't feasible


The restored pipeline now provides leak-free service with 50+ years of extended lifespan, all achieved without disrupting riverside traffic or nearby utilities.
