Amapayipi, okokufaka kanye namagumbi enziwa yi-Advanced Drainage Systems Inc. ukuze kukhanyiswe amasimu, kubambe amanzi esiphepho futhi kulawule ukuguguleka akugcini nje ngokulawula izinsiza zamanzi ayigugu kodwa futhi aphuma empahleni eluhlaza evumelana nemvelo.
Inkampani engaphansi kwe-ADS, i-Green Line Polymers, igaya kabusha ipulasitiki ye-polyethylene enamandla kakhulu futhi iyenze ibe inhlaka egaywe kabusha ye-extruder engu-No. 3 yamapayipi, amaphrofayili namashubhu eNyakatho Melika, ngokwezinga elisanda kukhishwa le-Plastics News.
I-ADS yase-Hilliard, e-Ohio yabona ukuthengiswa kwezigidigidi ezingu-1.385 zamaRandi onyakeni wezimali ka-2019, kwenyuke ngamaphesenti ama-4 kusukela onyakeni wezimali owandulele ngenxa yokunyuka kwamanani, ukuxutshwa kwemikhiqizo engcono kanye nokukhula kwezimakethe zokwakha zasekhaya.Ipayipi lenkampani likathayela we-thermoplastic ngokuvamile lilula, lihlala isikhathi eside, libiza kakhulu futhi kulula ukulifaka kunemikhiqizo eqhathanisekayo eyenziwe ngezinto zesintu.
IGreen Line inezela ekuthandeni kwe-ADS, ukuyisiza ukuthi izuze imigqa yayo eluhlaza emapayipini eziphepho kanye namapayipi endle, umgwaqo onguthelawayeka nezindawo zokuhlala, ezolimo, izimayini, ukuhlanzwa kwamanzi angcolile kanye nokulawulwa kwemfucuza.Njengoba kunezindawo eziyisikhombisa zase-US kanye nesisodwa eCanada, inkampani engaphansi igcina amabhodlela okuhlanza e-PE, izigubhu zepulasitiki kanye nepayipi lezokuxhumana liphuma ezindaweni zokulahla imfucumfucu futhi liwaguqule abe amapulangwe epulasitiki emikhiqizweni yengqalasizinda ehlangabezana noma edlula izindinganiso zomkhakha.
I-ADS ithi isiphenduke umthengi omkhulu kunawo wonke we-HDPE egaywe kabusha e-US Le nkampani iphambukisa cishe amaphawundi ayizigidi ezingu-400 epulasitiki ezindaweni zokulahla imfucumfucu minyaka yonke.
Imizamo yenkampani yokusebenzisa okuqukethwe okugaywe kabusha ithinta amakhasimende, afana nomasipala nabathuthukisi bezakhiwo abagunyazwe ngohlelo lwe-Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), uMongameli we-ADS kanye ne-CEO uScott Barbour engxoxweni yocingo.
"Sisebenzisa izinto ezicishe zibe ngaphansi kwesifunda futhi sizisebenzise kabusha ukuze zibe umkhiqizo owusizo, ohlala isikhathi eside ongangeni emnothweni oyindilinga wamapulasitiki iminyaka engu-40, 50, 60. Lokho kunenzuzo yangempela kulawa makhasimende. ," kusho uBarbour.
Izikhulu ze-ADS zilinganisela ukuthi izimakethe zase-US ezinikezwa imikhiqizo yenkampani zimele cishe u-$11 billion wamathuba okuthengisa onyaka.
Eminyakeni engu-30 edlule, i-ADS yayisebenzisa cishe yonke inhlaka emsulwa emapayipini ayo.Manje imikhiqizo efana ne-Mega Green, ipayipi likathayela le-HDPE elinodonga olukabili elinengaphakathi elibushelelezi lokusebenza kahle kwe-hydraulic, ingafika kumaphesenti angama-60 e-HDPE egaywe kabusha.
I-ADS yaqala ukusebenzisa izinto ezigaywe kabusha cishe eminyakeni engu-20 edlule futhi yabe isizithola isiqongelela ukuthengwa kwamaphrosesa angaphandle ngeminyaka yawo-2000s.
“Besazi ukuthi sizokusebenzisa kakhulu lokhu,” kusho uBarbour."Waqala kanjalo umbono weGreen Line Polymers."
I-ADS yavula i-Green Line ngo-2012 e-Pandora, e-Ohio, ukuze isetshenziswe kabusha i-HDPE yangemva kwezimboni bese yengeza izinsiza ze-HDPE yangemva komthengi.Ngonyaka odlule, inkampani engaphansi kwayo yafinyelela ingqopha-mlando emaka amaphawundi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-1 wepulasitiki ecutshungulwe kabusha.
I-ADS itshale izigidi ezingu-$20 kuya kwezingu-30 zamaRandi kule minyaka engu-15 edlule ukuze yandise okuqukethwe kwayo okugaywe kabusha, yandise i-Green Line iye kumasayithi ayisishiyagalombili, ihlele izinsiza zokuthenga futhi iqashe onjiniyela bamakhemikhali, osokhemisi nochwepheshe bokulawula ikhwalithi, kusho uBarbour.
Ngaphezu kwe-Pandora, inkampani engaphansi kwayo inezindawo zokugaywa kabusha ezizinikezele e-Cordele, e-Ga.;e-Waterloo, e-Iowa;kanye ne-Shippenville, Pa.;kanye nezindawo zokukhiqiza kabusha ezihlanganisiwe e-Bakersfield, Calif.;Waverly, NY;e-Yoakum, eTexas;naseThorndale, e-Ontario.
Le nkampani, enabasebenzi bomhlaba wonke abangu-4,400, ayiqedi isibalo sabasebenzi bakwaGreen Line.Igalelo labo, nokho, liyalinganiseka: Amaphesenti angamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nanye e-HDPE ye-HDPE eluhlaza acutshungulwa ngaphakathi ngokusebenza kwe-Green Line.
"Lokho kukhombisa izinga lalokho esikwenzayo. Kungumsebenzi omkhulu kakhulu," kusho uBarbour."Izimbangi zethu eziningi zepulasitiki zisebenzisa izinto ezigaywe kabusha ngokwezinga elithile, kodwa akekho noyedwa kubo owenza lolu hlobo lokuhlanganiswa okuqondile."
Ipayipi elinodonga olulodwa lwe-ADS linokuqukethwe okuphezulu okuphinde kwagaywa kabusha kwemigqa yomkhiqizo wayo, wengeza, kuyilapho ipayipi elinezindonga ezimbili - ulayini omkhulu wenkampani - linemikhiqizo ethile enokuqukethwe okugaywe kabusha kanye neminye eyi-HDPE emsulwa ukuhlangabezana nemithethonqubo namakhodi imisebenzi yomphakathi.
I-ADS ichitha isikhathi esiningi, imali kanye nomzamo ekulawuleni izinga, ukutshalwa kwezimali kwemishini namandla okuhlola, kusho uBarbour.
“Sifuna ukwenza isiqiniseko sokuthi impahla iyathuthukiswa ukuze kube yifomula engcono kakhulu yokusebenzisa imishini yethu yokukhipha ama-extrusion,” echaza."Kufana nokuba nophethiloli owakhelwe kahle wemoto yomjaho. Siwucwenga ngalowo mqondo."
Impahla ethuthukisiwe ikhuphula ukuphuma kwezinqubo ku-extrusion kanye nezinqubo zokubola, okubuye, kuthuthukise izinga lokukhiqiza nekhwalithi, okuholela ekuqineni okungcono, ukwethembeka kanye nokuphatha okungaguquguquki, ngokusho kuka-Barbour.
“Sifuna ukuba phambili ekuholeni ekusetshenzisweni kabusha kwezinto esezigaywe kabusha embonini yezokwakha zezinhlobo zethu zemikhiqizo,” kusho uBarbour."Sikhona, futhi ekugcineni sitshela abantu lokho."
E-US, umkhakha wamapayipi kathayela we-HDPE, i-ADS iqhudelana kakhulu ne-JM Eagle yase-Los Angeles;Willmar, Minn.-based Prinsco Inc.;kanye neCamp Hill, Pa.-based Lane Enterprises Corp.
Amadolobha asesifundeni saseNew York naseNyakatho California aphakathi kwamakhasimende okuqala e-ADS agxile ekwenzeni ukuthuthukiswa kwengqalasizinda esebenzisa imikhiqizo eqhubekayo.
I-ADS iyisinyathelo esingaphambi kwabanye abakhiqizi, wengeza, mayelana nesipiliyoni, ububanzi bobunjiniyela nekhono lobuchwepheshe, kanye nokufinyelela kuzwelonke.
"Siphatha isisetshenziswa esiyigugu: amanzi," esho."Ayikho into ebaluleke kakhulu ekusimameni ukwedlula ukuhlinzekwa kwamanzi anempilo kanye nokuphathwa kwamanzi ngendlela enempilo, futhi lokho sikwenza sisebenzisa izinto eziningi ezigaywe kabusha."
