His work focuses on enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of installing thermoplastic pipes in existing underground pipelines.
Latest Patents
One of his key patents is titled "Method of installing a substantially rigid thermoplastic pipe." This invention provides a solution for repairing pipelines by allowing the installation of a thermoplastic pipe in an existing underground pipeline, such as a service lateral, with access from only one end. The thermoplastic pipe is designed to be manufactured in a reduced form, which allows it to have a memory for that form. It is heated to become pliable for installation and is then pulled into the lateral from the access opening using a cable-and-pulley arrangement anchored temporarily at the intersection of the lateral and main pipelines. Once installed, the pipe is rounded and cooled in its rounded shape by passing steam under pressure through passages along the folds of the pipe while its leading end is restricted. This innovative approach significantly improves the pipeline repair process.
