Jetting loosens slurry, and loosened material has to be lifted out or it only moves further down the line. At Melbourne Airport, Drain Solutions broke up a blocked sewer line with a high pressure water jet truck while a second truck from another company extracted the debris.
In brief
- Where: Melbourne Airport
- Problem: a blocked sewer line with slurry and debris
- Method: a high pressure water jet truck, with a second truck from another company extracting the debris
- Result: a CCTV camera confirmed the line was clear
Why does slurry need to be extracted?
Water jetting breaks slurry and debris free of the pipe wall, but it also suspends that material in the flow. Extracting it with a second truck removes it from the line instead of pushing it downstream.
How was the result checked?
A CCTV camera ran through the line to confirm it was clear and recorded the pipe condition.
