How to deal with the mud in pipe jacking construction
Pipe jacking construction is an underground pipeline construction method. It can traverse highways, railways, rivers, ground buildings, underground structures, and various underground pipelines without the need to excavate surface layers. Pipe jacking construction uses the thrust of the main jacking cylinder and the relay room between the pipelines to push the tool pipe or the roadheader from the working shaft through the soil layer to the receiving shaft and hoist it. At the same time, the pipeline immediately following the tool pipe or the roadheader is buried between the two wells in order to realize the construction method of trenchless laying of underground pipelines.
Features of pipe jacking construction:
1. The trenchless technology does not excavate the ground, so the upper soil layer of the pipeline being laid is not disturbed, and the pipe section end of the pipeline is not easy to produce segmentation deformation, and the pipe life is longer than the buried pipe by the excavation method.
2. The use of under-house trenchless technology can save a large amount of land acquisition and demolition costs, reduce the use of houses for relocation, shorten the length of pipelines, and have great economic and social benefits.
3. The noise and vibration generated during construction are very small and do not disturb the people.
4. When pipelines are laid under existing roads, the traffic will not be affected.
Mud treatment in trenchless pipe jacking construction: In trenchless pipe jacking construction, different geological environments will produce different types of earth or mud. The generated mud part needs to be treated. There are many treatment methods at present, but the efficient method is to provide a set of mud treatment equipment for the pipe jacking machine to specifically treat the mud in the pipe jacking construction. BZ Solids Control is a manufacturer of mud treatment equipment. In the field of trenchless pipe jacking construction, it has designed supporting mud treatment equipment according to the actual situation on the spot, and has achieved great economic benefits.
