How Ice Pigging helped a long-suffering wastewater client increase flow rate by 40% and save £700k in projected costs

June 2023

Repeated sewage flooding incidents experienced by a long-suffering resident were attributed to reduced flow rates on the rising main caused by a build-up of sediments. The utility company used unsustainably expensive waste tankers to manage the wet-well levels. The Ice Pigging team cleaned the sewer main, returning flows to the required rates in just a few hours.

✔️ No re-occurrence of sewage flooding
✔️ Pumping flow rate increased 40%
✔️ Eliminated a significant public nuisance
✔️ AND saved over £700k – the projected cost of replacing the rising main.
