Hi Shreedar,

I am sorry but what does GRE stand for?

For an ongoing project we are using GRE pipes for sewer service. Have you<BR> considered this option ?<BR>

&gt; The pipe system was very intricate as it was replacing an existing
system<BR>
in an<BR>
&gt; old sewage treatment plant that was very congested. The plant had to
be<BR>
kept<BR>
&gt; running. We also had gravity lines so could not re route that easily.
The<BR>
&gt; building was built using reinforced concrete so each penetration was a<BR>
&gt; nightmare. Monorails and overhead cranes added to the complexity.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt; No we didnt groove the Victaulic coupling. Victaulic make a coupling
with<BR>
&gt; hardened teeth that bite into the outside of the pipe. It saves double<BR>
handling<BR>
&gt; the pipe and the likely corrosion point on the pipe. Sewage is one of
the<BR>
most<BR>
&gt; corrosive fluids known to man especially if there is H2S about.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt; Some of our STPs are carved into sandstone headlands and are very<BR>
congested.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt; Piping in a refinery to ANSI B31.3 or a mineral propcessing plant is a<BR>
dream<BR>
&gt; compared to this industry.<BR>

&gt; &gt; I'm curious as to what is needed; one line for a specific product or
a<BR>
&gt; &gt; piping network of glass-lined pipe. This problem sounds a lot like
the<BR>
&gt; &gt; issues encountered with vacuum-jacketed piping (as used for
liquid<BR>
hydrogen<BR>
&gt; &gt; in my experience). With VJ, you can build everything up to the
last<BR>
spool<BR>
&gt; &gt; piece and then custom fab the final bit.<BR>
&gt; &gt;<BR>
&gt; &gt; Did you cut the required groove for Victaulic into a glass-lined
pipe?<BR>
I'm<BR>
&gt; &gt; afraid my knowledge of glass lining and Victaulic is not the
best.<BR>

&gt; &gt; &gt; I can remember Greenline wanting everything flanged but in the
end it<BR>
was<BR>
&gt; &gt; too<BR>
&gt; &gt; &gt; time consuming measuring and getting specials flown out. So
we<BR>
attacked it<BR>
&gt; &gt; by<BR>
&gt; &gt; &gt; having plan ended pipe and using the Victaulic joint that grips
the<BR>
&gt; &gt; outside of<BR>
&gt; &gt; &gt; the pipe. Also the gasket used was their firesafe type, that
filled in<BR>
the<BR>
&gt; &gt; gap<BR>
&gt; &gt; &gt; between the pipe ends, to limit corrosion at that point.<BR>
