3. PVCPipe Use in Water Management System Water is life and PVC pipes are an unavoidable segment of human, plant, and animal life in terms of water transportation owing to their lightweight, easy installation, considerable strength, and long durability. PVC pipes occupy a substantially big share in water management. 

4. PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) pipes are commonly used in water management systems due to their numerous advantages, such as cost-effectiveness, durability, ease of installation, and resistance to corrosion and chemical reactions. They are widely used in various aspects of water management, including supply, distribution, and drainage systems.

5. They are widely used as • Agricultural irrigation pipes for farming • SWR pipes (sewage, waste, and rainwater) for sanitation • Plumbing pipes for drinking water lines • Casing and column pipes for extraction of groundwater • Fire-resistant electrical conduit pipes for building construction • Chlorinated PVC pipes for hot water lines

6. Agricultural pipes are subjected to high pressure for conveying water too long distances and laid inside the surface of the earth to facilitate the smooth and fast flow of water, fertilizer, and minerals to plants without sedimentation. SWR pipes are for sewage, rainwater, and waste management installed on the outer wall of residential and industrial complexes. They are exposed to extreme outdoor weathering.  They must be leak-proof, weather-resistant, scratch-resistant, and durable with the least possible maintenance.

7. Plumbing pipes are meant for clean drinking water which is free from toxic heavy metals. They are installed in apartments for cooking, bathing, and washing. They must be lead-free, resistant to microbial growth, and with a smooth inner surface for easy flow of water. Casing and column pipes are for groundwater extraction with a submersible pump hanging on pipes in the well.  They must be very strong to withstand the weight of the pump, the weight of the water column, and the sudden rotational torque of the pump. Thread joints of these pipes must have the exceptional load-bearing ability.

8. Electrical conduit pipes are for electrical wires to be concealed inside the wall during the construction of buildings.  They must be flame retardant for fire safety, tough enough to maintain their shape inside the wall, and must have a smooth inside for easy passage of wires. Chlorinated PVC pipes are meant for hot water lines. They are able to carry hot water up to a temperature of 95 °C.

9. 20 Microns has developed a series of products to cater to PVC pipe industries. Some of them are mentioned here. • FlowstabHFM: Heat stabilizer for lead-free non-toxic drinking water pipes. • Flow aid: Processing aid to render smooth inner surface, enhance impact strength, and improve thread strength and scratch-resistant glossy surface with longer outdoor weather ability. • LithomerTox: White opacifier to prevent sunlight and resist microbial growth. • Al Fr 3: Aluminiumtrihydrate (ATH) for fire-resistant pipes. • Calcium Carbonates: High-purity carbonates for pressure pipes.

10. Here are some common uses of PVC pipes in water management systems: Water Supply Lines: PVC pipes are commonly used for transporting potable (drinking) water from water treatment plants to homes, businesses, and other establishments. They are safe for conveying drinking water and are resistant to chemical reactions that could affect water quality. Irrigation Systems: PVC pipes are extensively used in agricultural irrigation systems to transport water from water sources (like wells, ponds, or rivers) to fields. Their smooth interior surface helps maintain a steady flow of water, reducing friction losses. Drainage Systems: PVC pipes are used for stormwater and wastewater drainage systems. They are effective in carrying away rainwater and sewage due to their corrosion resistance and smooth interior, which helps prevent clogs.

11. 4. Sewer Systems: PVC pipes are often used in gravity sewer systems to transport sewage and wastewater from homes and businesses to sewage treatment plants. Their durability and resistance to chemicals found in sewage make them a reliable choice for this application. 5. StormwaterManagement: PVC pipes are utilized in stormwater management systems to collect and convey rainwater runoff from streets, parking lots, and other surfaces to retention or detention ponds, preventing flooding and soil erosion. 6. Culverts: PVC pipes are used as culverts to allow water to flow under roads, railways, and other structures. Their lightweight nature and resistance to abrasion and corrosion make them suitable for this purpose.

12. 7. Industrial Applications: PVC pipes are employed in various industrial processes that involve the transportation of fluids. They can be used for conveying chemicals, acids, alkalis, and other substances, thanks to their chemical resistance. 8. Swimming Pools and Spas: PVC pipes are used in swimming pool and spa systems for water circulation, filtration, and drainage. They are resistant to the chemicals used in pool maintenance. 9. Water Treatment Plants: PVC pipes are used within water treatment plants to transport water between different treatment stages. Their resistance to corrosion helps maintain the quality of treated water. 10. Geothermal Systems: PVC pipes are sometimes used in geothermal heat pump systems for ground loop installations, where they circulate heat transfer fluids between the ground and the heat pump.
