Sliplining with HDPE: A Cost-Effective Solution for Reclaimed Water Delivery in Bell County, Texas
The Bell County Water Control and Improvement District in Texas used sliplining with high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe to deliver reclaimed water to the City of Killeen’s Stonetree Golf Course. This field report explores the benefits of using reclaimed water and how HDPE pipe provides a long-term, durable, and cost-effective solution for water transmission infrastructure.
Innovative Pipeline Technology to Upgrade Irrigation Systems in California Farms
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe and the McElroy Talon™ 2000 fusion machine upgrade irrigation systems at Baker Farming in California. The article highlights the benefits of using HDPE pipe and the Talon machine for pipelining, including increased durability, corrosion resistance, and reduced water loss. The Talon’s self-propelled, tracked vehicle design and touch-screen interface also made it easier and more efficient for operators to work with large-diameter pipes.
Texas A&M Switches to Polyethylene Pipe for Reliable Water Distribution
Learn how Texas A&M in College Station, Texas solved their high leak rates and service interruptions with polyethylene pipe. With the help of ISCO Industries, the university was able to replace all steel pipe on campus and utilize polyethylene pipe for their new RELLIS Education and Research Campus. Discover how HDPE and PERT pipes provided a leak-free system that won’t corrode in the ground and expanded the operation window for poly pipe.
Mitigating a Potential Disaster While Harnessing Power from Lake Kivu
Learn about the innovative Kivu-56 project, which extracts methane from the depths of Lake Kivu to fuel a new gas-to-power generation plant, while also minimizing the potential for a deadly disaster. Antares Offshore, an engineering company, was contracted to present engineering solutions for the project, and ISCO provided the necessary HDPE pipes, fittings, and fabricated components for the intake and discharge risers, wash water system, and methane transmission pipeline, ensuring a long-term, corrosion-resistant piping solution.
Protecting Supercomputers with Aquatherm Pipe
When dealing with high levels of data processing, a reliable cooling system is critical. Groupe Noel worked with ISCO-AH McElroy to secure Aquatherm polypropylene piping, which was installed quickly and kept the building clean. ISCO-AH McElroy provided training to technicians to ensure the project’s success in constructing a datacenter.
San Jacinto College Uses Innovative Aquatherm Pipe for Upgraded Heating and Cooling Systems
San Jacinto College’s South campus is using Aquatherm pipe to upgrade its heating and cooling systems as part of its initiative to offer diverse and cost-effective educational opportunities to its students. The college aims to consolidate and simplify its physical plants with the new chilled water loop, while ensuring predictable life cycle costs.
