Quality Pipe Services, Inc. (QPS), based in Denver CO, was contracted by Evanco Environmental to rehabilitate badly deteriorated onsite sanitary collection system structures at a major beverage manufacturing plant. Using a mix of technologies including Sprayroq SprayWall lining, QPS managed to rehabilitate and bring the system back online by year’s end.
Problem: The plant’s sanitary sewer line collapsed, causing a huge wastewater backup into the plant. The plant manager realized that the “out of sight, out of mind” syndrome had led to the wastewater collection system never being inspected. The complete system was inspected, revealing that manufacturing process chemicals had severely corroded its concrete structures over 15-20 years.
Affected were two underground vaults, Structure 3-A (approx. 20 feet deep and 20 feet wide), and Structure 3-B, about 15’ x 15’, each with three inlet pipes. Together, they totaled about 10,000 sq. ft. of surface area. These served as collection structures for sanitary wastewater and plant runoff that ran to an on-site treatment plant. They were l
