Trenchless rehabilitation system for deformation of large diameter HDPE pipelines and method thereof

The application provides a system comprising a water blocking device, a support structure, an injection machine, a resin impregnated lining hose and a light curing machine. The water blocking device blocks water and creates space for repairing. The support structure jacks up the deformation of pipelines. The injection machine injects polymer into the gap between the support structure and the HDPE pipes and the defective soil. A resin impregnated lining hose is inflated to attach to the support structure before being cured by UV lights. A CIPP (Cured-in-place pipe) liner is formed. The application carries out the trenchless rehabilitation of deformation of HDPE pipelines by integrating the method of the lining steel ring supporting, polymer injection and CIPP process. The defective soils are stabilized and further defects after repairing is avoided. The application is advantageous to the trenchless rehabilitation for double wall corrugated pipeline (diameter over 800 mm).
