integrated Water Management Solutions for the Global Market
Clearford Industries Inc. (TSX-V: CLI) is the developer of the patented Small Bore Sewer ™ (SBS™), a watertight small diameter wastewater collection system that provides servicing with superior operational and environmental performance at a significantly lower cost when compared to historic gravity sewers. With the SBS™ as the enabling technology, Clearford delivers, on a global basis, turnkey, fixed-price wastewater collection, treatment, and energy generation solutions that are ideally suited for:
- water-scarce regions,
- those with unreliable water distribution networks,
- existing communities requiring servicing, whether or not they currently have on-site sanitary disposal systems, and
- new developments seeking a greener approach to water and wastewater management.
Acting as the system integrator, Clearford partners with leading edge water treatment providers, and works with local constructors and suppliers in each country/area to deliver integrated water management solutions.
| High Density Polyethylene (HPDE) Piping Clearford’s SBS™ uses small diameter, fused-joint High Density Polyethylene (HPDE) piping for its collection mains, laterals and clean-out access points. This pipe is stronger, more resilient and more flexible than conventional PVC sewer pipe, and has a design life of over100 years, compared to 35 years for PVC. HPDE requires minimal bedding, offering a more flexible range of layout possibilities. One roll of HDPE delivers up to 350 meters of pipe. All connections, bends and appurtenances are welded on-site to create a sealed, leak-free piping system that completely eliminates groundwater infiltration into the sewer system and the potential for sewage leaching into the environment, and ensures consistent and predictable operation and maintenance costs – the lowest of any sewage collection system. |
| Installation of Piping HPDE piping allows two simple installation options – open cut (digging small, shallow trenches) or trenchless technology (TT) using horizontal directional drilling (HDD).
Both installation options cost significantly less than traditional sewers, can be installed in a fraction of the time using local labour, and have a minimal impact on the environment. In addition, the open cut method and the sealed nature of the HDPE piping allows common trenching to be used for both water and wastewater. | |
