What are the benefits of pipeline rehabilitation using Cement Lining?
• Save 40 80 % over the cost of replacement • Extend the life of the pipeline for another 50 100 years • STOP corrosion now! • STOP leaks • Neutralize any adverse effects of the pipeline on the water • Increase flow from 15 25 % Return How long have Cement Lined Pipes been used? Beginning in the 1800s, cement mortar was found to have excellent anti-corrosive properties for use in water lines. At first, man entry size pipelines were rehabilitated using hand-lining techniques. Eventually, lining machines were developed which allowed for a consistent lining thickness on the pipe wall for both man entry and small diameter pipe. Since then cement mortar lining has been used around the world for new pipe and to rehabilitate old lines. Return How does the cement lining protect the pipe? The internal cement mortar lining provides protection to the pipeline in two ways. First, it is a cement pipe within a steel pipe, and second, by creating a Zone of Alkalinity. This zone between the cement lin
