Purpose The purpose of this study to monitor the state of deep sewerage networks is a task of current interest in connection with the emergency and pre-emergency condition of a large part of sewerage systems in the cities of Ukraine. Design/methodology/approach To monitor the state, performance and reliability of deep sewer collectors, it is necessary to provide monitoring wells and, during the lifetime, to carry out planned inspection of groundwater levels in the wells and to timely identify areas of filtration of wastewater into the ground. Findings Monitoring the state of deep sewerage networks is a task of current interest in connection with the emergency and pre-emergency condition of a large part of sewerage systems in the cities of Ukraine. To monitor the state, performance and reliability of deep sewer collectors, it is necessary to provide monitoring wells, and during the lifetime, to carry out planned inspection of groundwater levels in the wells and to timely identify areas of filtration of wastewater into the ground. Originality/value Implementation of works on reconstruction and strengthening an emergency section will extend the service life of the sewer collector without reducing its capacity.
Purpose This paper aims to investigate the condition and select a repair procedure for a damaged sewer in Kharkiv, Ukraine. Design/methodology/approach Inspection shafts are critical objects in the sewerage networks and are exposed to the strong influence of destructive processes, which are mainly corrosion of concrete structures, penetration of surface water inside structures, static and dynamic loads generated by truck transport, deviations from the codes and errors in construction, poor quality of the shaft wall surface, aggressive biological environment and ground subsidence. Therefore, selecting the optimum repair technology is of current interest. Findings The problems of repair and refurbishment of inspection shafts in deep-level sewer tunnels were considered. The technical and technological solutions using profiled polyethylene, reinforced slag cast panels, ceramic bricks and protective coatings are given. The advantages and disadvantages of the proposed technologies and examples of their practical application are shown. Originality/value This study performs reconstruction and strengthening work for a damaged section of the inspection shaft without shutdown.
The article is devoted to the development of technological and organizational solutions for elimination of local emergency damage to sewage tunnel collectors. In the article, conditions of operation and constructions of the sewage tunnel collector destroyed by corrosion are investigated on Grekovska street in Kharkiv, Ukraine; the methods of production of repair and restoration works are analyzed in this article; technological and organizational solutions have been developed for the liquidation of emergency damage to sewage tunnel collectors, taking into account technical, organizational and economic indicators. Thus, when comparing recovery options by different methods, it is noted that the proposed technology is more economically feasible in view of the relatively low cost of the material for this solutions. At the same time, the duration of the work by the proposed method of extrusion by introducing a secondary lining with anticorrosive properties will be reduced by 30%.
The application of epoxy coatings to concrete is a method of its protection against sulfuric acid corrosion. The problem of ensuring the efficiency of the coating protection conditioned by many factors is considered herein. Penetration of acidic substances through local defects on the coating surface, which causes its swelling and a sharp increase in the corrosion rate, is one of the main factors. Results of the studies of the samples exposed to 5 % solution of sulfuric acid and to the environment of a sewer system with a high content of hydrogen sulfide in the air are described. It is established that the modification of concrete with additives and the increase of its physical and mechanical properties prevent the stability of the “concrete–epoxy coating” system from increasing. To ensure the reliable operation of reinforced concrete structures in an acidic environment, it is advisable to periodically monitor the condition of coatings in order to identify and to timely eliminate local corrosion.
