A sewer cleaning machine includes a power base with a motor and a drive mechanism, and a drum removably coupled to the power base. The drum includes a cable that is selectively extendable out of the drum and is movable between a first position, in which the drum is supported by the power base and coupled to the drive mechanism, and a second position, in which the drum is separated from the power base.

An apparatus and method for cleaning containers using water within the container and a submersible pump exhibiting a nozzle. Air may be injected into the pumped water to increase its pressure as it exists the nozzle.

Apparatus and method for cleaning the inner surface of a pipeline from deposits and for forming a protective coating are disclosed. The apparatus includes a cleaning tool which is caused to move in the interior of the pipeline by a flow of a fluid, the cleaning tool comprising a plurality of guide discs engaging the pipeline surface and mounted along a longitudinal axis of the cleaning tool, an anode positioned inside the cleaning tool, and an impressed current source electrically connected to the anode and the interior of the pipeline, the interior of the pipeline acting as a cathode when current is applied from the current source so that ions flow from the anode, through the fluid, to the interior of the pipeline.

A nested multi-port pipe preparation device is provided herein. The nested multi-port pipe preparation device is a single tool configured to clean and deburr the ends of two or more differently sized pipes and pipe fittings. The device includes a housing having a plurality of ports. Each port includes a single female pipe-cleaning member, a single male pipe-cleaning member, or a pipe-cleaning member assembly. The pipe-cleaning member assembly includes a male pipe-cleaning member and a female pipe-cleaning member concentrically surrounding the male pipe-cleaning member such that an exterior portion of a pipe and the interior portion of a pipe fitting can be cleaned in the device. The device further includes two or more deburring blades positioned relative to the single female pipe-cleaning member and the pipe-cleaning member assembly for deburring a pipe as the pipe is cleaned.
