5. PP-R Pipes
The System
PP-R is a safe , long lasting, reliable and cost effective solution for
hot & cold water. The system is suitable for all plumbing and
potable water applications the pipes & fittings are made of
Polypropylene Random Co polymer (PP-R) Type 3. Indigenously
manufactured complete range is available in 16mm to 160mm with
necessary heating tools & accessories. Threaded insert in the
transition fittings are made from brass & duly nickel plated to
withstand chemical corrosion at elevated temperatures. The
specific chemical structure of indigo green PP-R provides the well
balanced mechanical properties and superior long term heat
resistance.
The PP-R type 3 used in the production of indo green system offers
number of advantages . It has high molecular weight and excellent
creep resistance, which are fundamental characteristics for the
transportation of hot fluids under pressure. Moreover , it possesses
a high resistance to slow crack growth , an important
characteristics for the long term performance under mechanical
stress. Both pipes and fittings are manufactured according to ISO

EN 15874 standards . Pipes are available in PN 10, PN 16 & PN 20
, where as the fittings are available in highest PN 25 or PN 20
pressure class . The choice of the raw material , the structural
accuracy and the strict quality control gives the system high degree
of reliability .
Polyfusion Welding
Joints of the indo green pipes and fitting are usually jointed to get
by poly fusion welding ,which is a fundamental property of this
system . this process consists of mixing of melted material of
external surface of the pipe and internal surface of fitting , after
heating them up 260C to 280C on the small welding machine
called poly-fusion device. Property made welded joint, when cut
through , shows no traces of contacts surface between two
element ie . pipe and fitting in the entire volume of joints . thus
fusion process gives homogeneous , long lasting , leak proof joints
.
Jointing Procedure
Cutting – cut the pipes square to required length by cutter. Deburr

the cut end if necessary . pipes end must be clean cut at right
angles .
Cleaning ; prior to welding , the pipe and fitting should be dried
and property cleaned .
Marking- mark the required insertion depth (welding depth ) on the
pipe with the helps of the suitable marker .
Heating: ensure that the indicator light of the welding device signal
that the device is hot enough (260C to 270C) for welding .first
weld can be made after 5 minutes when heating light get off. Heat
the pipe & fitting on the polyfusion device as per the recommended
heating times. ( The heating time starts when pipe & fitting has
been pushed to the correct welding depth on the matrices ). While
heating the pipe & fitting in the matrices, apply slight pressure
from both sides.
Welding- After specified heating time remove the pipe & fitting
out of the matrices. Heated end of pipe should be pushed into the
flared end of the hot fitting down to the previously marked depth .
Do not turn or twist the pipe or fitting while pushing into the
matrices and pulling out the matrices.
Cooling – After the specified cooling time , the joint gets a first
stiffness, after this phase next joint can be made.

writing of the Engineer in Charge.
2. Excavation
a. The excavation for sewer works shall not be taken up unless the
permission of the Engineer in Charge for the ground to be tunneled
is obtained in writing.
b. Refilling
After the sewer or other work has been laid and proved to be water

2.2. PROCESS DESCRIPTION
In order to conserve water, the treatment plant shall be designed to

ensure that treated effluent (water) characteristics are well below the
permissible limits, even under varying flow conditiong which are
typical for such systems. The selected process shall be able to
withstand the shock load situation. To achieve same plant room areas,
it is proposed to better use the principle of aerobic attached growth
process.
The treatment plant shall be designed with a capacity to handle 200

cum/day of wastewater. Wastewater will flow via gravity collection

system through a bar screen chamber to a sump chamber. A bar screen
shall be provided at the inlet point in the bar screen chamber and the
wastewater will flow through this bar screen into the sump. Bar screen
shall also be designed that it can be cleaned manually by going down
to a platform in the chamber. Two horizontal centrifugal pumps shall
be provided in the sump to pump the collected wastewater to the
reactor. Air will be introduced in the sump through pipe grid, to avoid
the sewage from becoming septic.
Wastewater from the sump shall be lifted by means of effluent lifting

pumps into Equalised Reactors where BOD/COD reduction is
achieved by virtue of aerobic microbial activity. Reactor would be
runnung in series. Oxygen required will be supplied through course
bubble air diffusers.
The excess bio-solids washed in the biological process are separated in

the downstream Clarifier/ Tube Settler Tank. The clear supernatant
will be collected in the Chlorine water tank cum filter feed tank. The
treated sewage is further pumped through filteration units. The sewage
after CCT is disinfected and shall meet the coliform norms of < 1000
counts with minimal dosage of sodium hypochlorite. The coliform
count in the treated effluent shall be almost nil.
The tertiary treatment consists of removing the residual suspended

solid load, by filtering through Dual Media Filter and passing the
water through Activated Carbon Filter so that traces of BOD/COD and
excess chlorine are removed. The tertiary treated water is stored in the
final holding tank and can be safely used for irrigation purpose.
For cooling tower make-up the treated sewage from final holding tank
is further passed through softening plant for cooling tower makeup
purpose.
The biological sludge generated from the reactor which is settled in the
Clarifier/Tube settler, is pumped into sludge sump. The sludge shall be
pumped and filled in a tanker for suitable disposal by client.

diffuser drop pipe shall be equipped with non-clog fine bubble
diffusers of sufficient quantity to keep pressure loss through the drop
pipe assembly to a minimum. The air diffusion devices shall be
designed to distribute air over the entire length of the tank and to have
efficiency such that an adequate supply of oxygen is maintained in the
tanks of treat the sewage load for which the plant is designed.
