摘要:
A method of rehabilitating a pipeline with a liner and a novel liner for that purpose are disclosed. The method comprises reinforcing the liner with a layer of fiber-reinforced mat such as carbon fiber reinforced mat only at one or more locations along the length of the liner corresponding to the location and length of one or more bends in the pipeline. The liner includes the fiber-reinforced mat only at locations or sections along its length which correspond to bends in the pipeline being rehabilitated so that when the liner is inverted when installing it in the pipeline, the areas of reinforcement align with the bends.
