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:
Precision spot repairs to immediately contain active leaks
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.
