Sewage retention chanel, Rzeszów, Poland

Sewage retention chanel

The construction of an innovative retention sewage canal in Rzeszów in southern Poland was recently completed using Weholite piping and manholes. The award winning sewer design is the brainchild of Daniel Słyś PhD Eng. and Professor Józef Dziopak from the Department of Infrastructure and Sustainable Development at the Rzeszów University of Technology.

Uponors roll

PEHD pipes Weholite SN8 DN/ID 2400 mm of the length of 300 m

The detention sewer devised by RUT researchers is a simple yet breakthrough solution for storm water disposal. What’s unique  about it is that the inside of the sewer is divided into chambers using baffles, which allows for maximum use of the sewer’s internal capacity. Professor Dziopak explains: “ Inside, the sewer is divided by baffles which translates into a linear series of hydraulically interconnected chambers. The sewer serves two functions in the general sewer network: basic function of transporting sewage and that of temporarily retaining excess storm water. “

Work on first such sewer began in 2015 in Krakowska-Południe, a fast developing housing district in Rzeszów. Daniel Słyś who acted as consultant for the installation comments: “The new sewer in Rzeszów was designed to regulate the volume of storm water transported from the new housing developments into the existing municipal wastewater network. Due to required retention capacity of the sewer and limited installation space the diameter of the pipe was set at 2,4 m.”

The construction was carried out in two stages. The first stage finished in 2015 included the construction of a 140 m section of the sewer with collectors for draining sideroads and footpaths. The second stage realized in 2018 provided for the installation of a 160 m section of the wastewater channel along with auxiliary systems.  The combined total length of the whole drainage system for the area is 1,5 km. The pipes used had nominal diameter of DN200 to DN 2400 mm and ring stiffness of SN 4÷12 kN/m² with storm water pre-treatment installations.

The retention sewage canal was built using structural double-walled Weholite pipes by Uponor Infra made of high-density polyethylene (PEHD) with the diameter of DN 2,400 mm and ring stiffness of SN 8 kN/m2. The outer wall of the sewer is black ensuring resistance to UV radiation. The channel frame features 8 inspection manholes with the diameter of DN 1,200 mm. To improve flow control the sewer was fitted with a series of baffles. The installation was carried out in difficult geotechnical conditions with high ground water levels presenting additional challenges. Obstacles, however, were tackled as the work progressed and the installation was successfully completed.

When asked about the reasons for choosing polyethylene piping for this project Daniel Słyś mentions several factors: tightness and homogeneity of joints, the possibility of  installing the baffles, excellent static-strength parameters, resistance to abrasiveness and longevity of the pipeline as well as cost-effectiveness. The application of PE piping guaranteed that all of the above criteria would be met. As designers of the system [my colleagues and I] can attest to the highest quality of the piping provided for this project.”

Weholite installerat i Valdemarsvik

1960 lät man kulvertera Fifalla-ån som rinner genom Valdemarsvik ut i Valdemars-viken. I slutet på 1800-talet byggdes Lundbergs Läderfabrik över den sista delen av ån vid utloppet men 1960 kom alltså en kulvert på plats, fram till fabriken under Storgatan som Trafikverket ansvarar för. Den kulverten bestod av galvad plåt och den förväntade livslängden var 50 år. Nu var den gränsen passerad och för ett par år sedan uppstod ett slukhål på kommunhusets parkeringsplats.

Uponors tekonologi Weholite var lösningen till ett unikt projekt i London, där Lee- och Thames Tideway-tunneln har till uppgift att fånga upp i genomsnitt 39 miljoner ton avloppsvatten per år från de 35 mest nedsmutsade kombinerade avloppssystemen. Ett uppgraderat rörsystem designades för att minska antalet översvämningar – och deras påverkan på miljön – från Londons avlopps- och reningssystem. Syftet med det uppgraderade rörsystemet var att begränsa nedsmutsningen från avlopps- och reningssystemen som är anslutna till avloppsreningsverken i Beckton och Crossness.

Located in Finnish Lapland, on the Ounasjoki River, the village of Kaukonen now treats its wastewater with a new WehoPuts 400 treatment plant. As in many rural areas, long distances make village treatment plants a more sensible alternative than transporting wastewater tens of kilometres to the nearest town.

Roihu 2016 – the 7th International Finnjamboree organised by Suomen Partiolaiset - Finlands Scouter ry, was held at the Evo campsite in Hämeenlinna on 20–28 July 2016. A camp for 17,100 people was built in a forest area owned by Metsähallitus. Some 3,000 participants arrived from abroad – from about 40 different countries. Uponor delivered 7,600 metres of pipes to the area. The pipes were used to supply clean water and to lead grey water away from the area in a controlled manner.

Unique design ensures controlled stormwater drainage

Unique design ensures controlled stormwater drainage

In Slagelse Municipality, there are requirements for the drainage of rainwater and wastewater to be separated, and therefore it was important that the wastewater solution on the street, Nordre Ringgade, was also updated in accordance with current legislation. The client has received an approved solution where the wastewater from the commercial property in no. 59 has been separated from the rainwater. The rainwater is now diverted directly from the 2,500 m2 car park.

Safe water supply for an old shipyard and sawmill area

The Pateniemi waterfront area in Oulu, Northern Finland played a role in the history of Finnish industrialisation. In the mid-19th century, its shipyard built large merchant vessels, and later it was the location of one of the largest sawmills of its time. Now, the waterfront is entering a new era with the completion of a residential area for 2,500 inhabitants. Uponor Barrier PLUS pipes – which are both durable and non-permeable – ensure a safe supply of potable water in this area that was in industrial use for over 100 years.
