TL;DR: A review of current technologies for inspecting brick, concrete, and vitrified clay sewer systems, including the results of three experimental investigations, is given in a tabular form that lists the applications, advantages, and disadvantages of each technique as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The National Research Council Canada has recently completed a project to assist the city of Montreal in determining the condition of its water and sewer system. The National Research Council Canada staff members reviewed available and developing diagnostic techniques for both systems, conducted experiments on nondestructive evaluation methods and provided general scientific advice during the course of the project. This paper presents a review of current technologies for inspecting brick, concrete, and vitrified clay sewer systems, including the results of three experimental investigations. The results of the review are given in a tabular form that lists the applications, advantages, and disadvantages of each technique. Current and developing technologies are described that will supplement or replace closed circuit television inspection for determining the condition of sewer pipes through inspection of their internal pipe walls. In addition, techniques that allow sewer operators to investigate the pipe wal...

TL;DR: In this article, a comparative life cycle analysis (LCA) is performed for six different types of wastewater pipe materials: composite fiber reinforced polymer (FRP), PVC, high density polyethylene (HDPE), ductile iron, vitrified clay, and reinforced concrete.

TL;DR: In this paper, a hydrophobic-like interaction between platelets and nano-bubbles on the edges of clay crystals was proposed. But this interaction may be induced by the presence of nano-bubbles existing on the edge of clay particles, which may cause clay particles to flocculate.
