This disclosure relates generally to corrugated pipe, and more particularly to corrugated pipe with an outer wrap. In one embodiment, a pipe includes an axially extended bore defined by a corrugated outer wall having axially adjacent, outwardly-extending corrugation crests, separated by corrugation valleys. The pipe also includes an outer wrap applied to the outer wall. The outer wrap may include fibers and plastic. The outer wrap may span the corrugation crests producing a smooth outer surface.

Pipe with an outer wrap

A method for installing a liquid quality system into a containment structure, wherein the liquid quality system includes a liquid quality device and at least one drag-inducing assembly, wherein the at least one drag-inducing assembly includes at least one supporting portion and at least one drag-inducing portion, wherein when the liquid quality device is installed a sump region is formed below, is provided. The method may include mounting, at least partially in the sump region, the at least one supporting portion onto a sidewall of the containment structure. The method may also include attaching the at least one drag-inducing portion to the at least one supporting portion. The method may also include mounting the liquid quality device in the containment structure.

Method for installing a liquid quality system

A liquid quality system for removing particulates from liquid (e.g., storm-water runoff). The system can include tubular portion (e.g., a manhole). The tubular portion has an inlet and an outlet. The system includes liquid quality device. The liquid quality device includes a partitioning portion. The partitioning portion has a first region including a funnel shape with a sump inlet aperture. The partitioning portion also has a second region including a sump outlet aperture and optionally a sump access aperture. A sump region is located between a base portion and the partitioning portion, wherein a flow of the liquid travels from the inlet in the tubular portion, into the funnel, through the sump inlet aperture, into the sump region, through the sump outlet aperture, and out the outlet of the tubular portion. At least one drag-inducing portion is positioned proximate the tubular portion in the sump region and projecting inwardly towards a central axis of the sump region.

Liquid quality system with drag inducing portions

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method of applying an outer wrap to a corrugated pipe. The method comprises receiving a corrugated pipe that is cut to length, determining a wrap type to be applied to the corrugated pipe, determining a flow rate for applying a wrap of the wrap type based on a type of plastic used in the wrap, a type of fiber used in the wrap, and the wrap type, and applying a wrap made of the type of fiber and the type of plastic to the corrugated pipe using the determined flow rate.

A disclosed pipe scuffing device includes a frame and a shaft coupled to the frame and configured to rotate about a central axis. The pipe scuffing device also includes a drive motor configured to drive the rotation of the shaft. The device further includes one or more abrasive wheels disposed about the shaft and having an abrasive outer surface configured to engage an outer surface of a pipe when rotating with the shaft to remove one or more contaminants from the outer surface of the pipe.

Pipe processing systems and methods

This disclosure relates generally to corrugated pipe, and more particularly to corrugated pipe with a reinforcing stiffener. The corrugated pipe may include an axially extended bore defined by a corrugated outer wall having axially adjacent, outwardly-extending corrugation crests, separated by corrugation valleys. In some embodiments, a stiffener may be positioned within the corrugation valleys. In other embodiments, a stiffener may be positioned within the corrugation crests.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a coupling mechanism. The coupling mechanism may include a connection section including a first opening, an inner flange, and an outer flange, wherein the connection section is configured to connect to a first pipe, a sleeve portion including a second opening and configured to connect to a second pipe, and a channel extending through the coupling mechanism between the first opening and the second opening, wherein the first opening is angled relative to the second opening, wherein the inner flange includes a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the inner flange includes a width larger than a width of the second end of the inner flange.

Systems and methods for coupling pipe with angled coupling mechanism

A casing defines a cavity having a top, a bottom, and axially front and rear ends. The casing is configured to conduct a mixture of a liquid and a contaminant through the cavity from the front end to the rear end. A coalescer, located in the cavity, includes an inclined stack of corrugated plates extending rearward and upward. Each plate has corrugations extending rearward and upward.
