- Harold Kosova
- National Power Rodding
- The use of chemical grout has evolved over
the past 50 years to include a number of
applications in sanitary sewer collection
systems. There are several technologies that can
be utilized to rehabilitate pipe and it can be
argued that there are many applications where
rehabilitation with chemical grout is more
beneficial and economical than other
alternatives. - Mr. Kosova is the President of National Power
Rodding Corp. and has been a member of the
Carylon Corporation since 1960. He has been at
the forefront of the development of closed

- 1100 1130 Chemical Grout Case Study, DGSD
- Derek Wold, P.E.
- Baxter Woodman
- There are a number of methods available for
rehabilitating sanitary sewer systems, including
open cut replacement, cured-in-place pipe
(lining), slip-lining, pipe bursting, and
grouting. Knowing when to utilize each of these
methods is essential to a successful
rehabilitation program. This presentation will
focus on the use of chemical grout to
rehabilitate manholes, sanitary sewer mains and
laterals. Chemical grouting is used to prevent
infiltration from entering sewer joints, lateral
connections and manholes. A review of
specifications, testing, and inspection of
chemical grouting will be provided. Flow data
and I/I reduction from a case study that included
grouting of an entire flow basin will be
reviewed. - Mr. Wold earned his Bachelors Degree from the
University of Illinois and his Masters in
Environmental Engineering from IIT. He is a
Licensed Professional Engineer in Illinois and
