Abstract:
A method and system for applying a liner to an underground utility structure is provided. First a layer of epoxy is applied to the interior surface of the host pipe using a machine such as a spincast machine. A dry liner is inverted into the pipe directly behind the coating application at a limited speed and pressure. A drag is set on the inversion equipment relative to the speed of the epoxy spinner unit to control inversion speed. Once the liner is completely inverted the internal pressure of the liner is raised and infused into the uncured epoxy.
Abstract:
A method and system for the spray application of epoxy materials is provided. The system includes a dual walled tank structure as a reservoir for containing and preheating the epoxy materials in preparation for mixing and spray application. Each component of the epoxy material is preheated before the components are mixed. After preheating, the components are then mixed together and spray applied. The method and system of the present invention provides a high quality spray applied epoxy coating while reducing equipment down time and cleaning.

Abstract:
A pipe lining composition and a method for installing the pipe lining composition into a pipeline requiring repair is provided. The lining composition is a layered lining composite formed of alternating plies of felt and carbon fiber strand reinforcing such that layers of carbon fiber reinforcing strands are trapped between layers of felt. Once the composite is laid up the composite is preferably stitched to provide stability and to maintain the layers relative to one another and then formed into a tube. In accordance with the method, the lining tube is then sequentially filled resins of increasing viscosity as it is drawn through rollers in a manner that fully wets out the carbon fiber before it is placed into the pipe to be lined.
