Sewage Water The treated wastewater is normally leads to the discharge area of the receiving environment at a certain depth and distance from the coast. An output of deep water provide excellent dilution of wastewater. The depth will vary output in a range of 10-60 m, depending on the self-purification capacity of the receiving environment. […]

A scientific study shows that the environmental footprint of plastic pipes is of medium equivalent to a third of the alternative materials A new study, the prestigious independent Institute for Technological Research of Flanders (VITO), funded by the European plastic pipes industry is conclusive in its results: the plastic pipes are more sustainable than alternative […]

Treatment system that uses the purification capacity of the sea: Waste of human origin have come to the seas for thousands of years, where there has been the assimilation of this organic load through the purification capacity of the ocean. In the past, when we lived in settlements with small populations could live in balance […]

A purification system for outfall – SIDES (term used by ELINSUBCA) is an intelligent solution for the treatment of both industrial wastewater and domestic, which uses the purifying capacity of the ocean to degrade the organic load contained in municipal effluents, in balance with the marine ecosystem. Its operation can be explained by separating it […]

Systems polyolefin sewer pipes have a life expectancy of at least 100 years. This is the conclusion of a recent two-year project commissioned by TEPPFA (Trade association Representing manufacturers and national associations of plastic pipe systems in Europe) and independently analyzed by Professor Heinz Dragaun of the School of Higher Education (TGM) in Vienna . […]

What are they used for: Systems water intake built in high density polyethylene ((HDPE acronym in English) are intended for the abstraction of water from a natural source such as:. Seas, lakes or rivers These systems are used for supplying water for various purposes such as providing drinking water or process water, for desalination of […]

What are they for: Outfalls have been used with excellent results in different parts of the world for handling wastewater from cities and towns coastal, by which is put into use the natural ability of the ocean to clean up the pollution load of municipal effluents. This system provides debugging great advantages in handling the […]

How we benefit: Aqueducts submarines are used to transport drinking water or raw water through seas, rivers or lakes, in order to serve populations that are isolated by these aquatic environments. Several submarines aqueducts are currently installed in different parts of the world, carrying water to islands from the mainland, crossing gulfs and passing rivers […]

System design Comunicantes vessels. ELINSUBCA recently completed the construction of the intake system and underwater discharge pipe seawater with high density polyethylene (HDPE) for Thermal Power Plant Juan Bautista Arismendi (PJBA) in the town of El Guamache in Edo. Nueva Esparta. This plant is intended to reach a final installed capacity of approximately 750 MW, […]

The best alternative for the treatment of wastewater in coastal villages. Outfalls with large dilution capacity combined with removal treatment solids (primary treatment) are the most efficient, reliable and economical to manage domestic wastewater in nearby sea populations alternative over any secondary treatment is conducted in treatment plants. Henry J. Salas, adviser Control of Water […]

Technological evolution: In the technological evolution of underwater engineering facilities pipe a common factor seen, get materials that provide greater benefits in maintaining systems, with lower investment the longest possible service life is reached. Today, around the world, when subsea pipelines it is, it is intended as a first choice in High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) […]

Tanks Glass-Fused-to-Steel Technology glass fused to steel (GFS) was introduced to the market for water storage tanks in the mid-seventies. When the benefits of this type of tank over its life cycle are incorporated, the benefits are difficult to match over other systems. The glass fused to steel is the premium technology in the market […]

An outfall is a pipeline for wastewater discharges of urban or industrial origin in the sea some distance from the coast. The main objective of the outfalls is to minimize the potential impact of the discharge of sewage into the sea, or what is the same, ensuring good dilution so that the mixture of wastewater […]

Background. When it is required to capture water from the sea to feed a desalination plant, there is a need to filter the water entering the underwater pipeline, in order to prevent animals from entering and algae into the water system. Generally these structures consist of simple filtering meshes with sufficient catchment area, allowing water […]

Key sinking underwater pipe HDPE The collapse of the pipe and the diffuser is carried out basically with the own forces of nature, ie, gravity, buoyancy and air pressure. In this article a brief description of the main elements involved is carried out before and during the collapse .

Thermofusion butt welding. Things to Consider   It is a simple and fast method of welding for joining sections of pipe high density polyethylene (HDPE) is joined by heating to melting temperature and mechanical or hydraulic action, the ends of the pipe.

Outfalls, Catchments, Aqueducts: When installing emissaries, catchments and underwater aqueducts required pipe high density polyethylene (HDPE) is the best solution compared to other alternatives such as steel, cast iron, fiberglass or concrete when submerged refers facilities.

Studies by international organizations on environmental protection, indicate that discharges of sewage into the sea through outfalls and diffusers systems represent a viable alternative for coastal cities. These systems can take advantage of natural assimilative capacity of the sea, which functions as a water treatment plant without causing any undesirable impact on seawater.
