HDPE Carat Pipe in Wetland Protection Project

2025-08-19

As the "kidney of the earth", wetlands undertake irreplaceable ecological functions such as water conservation, water purification, and biodiversity maintenance, but their vulnerability determines that conservation projects need to find a balance between "water conservancy needs" and "ecological minimum disturbance". The emergence of HDPE carat pipes (high-density polyethylene wound structural wall pipes) provides wetland protection projects with infrastructure solutions that balance practicality and ecology.

HDPE carat pipe is made of high-density polyethylene and is made by winding molding process. It has the characteristics of light weight, corrosion resistance, impact resistance and strong flexibility - these characteristics just meet the special needs of wetland environment: wetland soil is mostly silt, containing a lot of humus and microorganisms, traditional pipes are prone to corrosion and aging, while HDPE carat pipe is resistant to acid and alkali, biological erosion, and has a service life of more than 50 years; wetland terrain is undulating and changeable, and the flexibility of carat pipe allows small radius bending (the minimum bending radius is only 20 times the diameter of the pipe), which can flexibly adapt to the terrain, reduce the amount of earthwork excavation, and retain the original vegetation and soil structure to the greatest extent. In addition, its high ring stiffness (ring stiffness can reach SN8 and above) can effectively withstand the static load and rain impact of wetland soil, avoiding pipeline deformation and blockage.

In the specific application of wetland protection projects, the value of HDPE carat pipes is reflected in many scenarios: first, drainage system construction. Wetlands are prone to waterlogging due to heavy rain, and the smooth inner wall of carat pipes (roughness coefficient is only 0.009) can reduce water flow resistance, improve drainage efficiency, and at the same time, it is not easy to absorb silt, reduce the risk of blockage, and ensure the stability of wetland water levels; second, ecological restoration projects. In the wetland water circulation system, carat pipes are used to connect different waters, promote water flow and exchange, and improve the water quality in stagnant areas, and their non-toxic and non-precipitation characteristics will not affect the survival of aquatic organisms; third, auxiliary facilities construction. The use of carat pipes for wetland plank roads and viewing platforms (such as rainwater collection and irrigation systems) can not only meet the needs of the project, but also do not cause additional damage to wetland ecology.

AD Pipe is a veteran brand in the field of plastic pipes. Its HDPE carat pipe ensures stable product performance through strict raw material screening and process control. In a wetland restoration project in the south of the Yangtze River, the pipeline was used to build a rainwater collection and water circulation system: during construction, with the help of the flexibility of the carat pipe, only 30% of the original planned earthwork was excavated, and more than 90% of the reed wetland was retained; after it was put into use, the incidence of wetland waterlogging decreased from 5 times a year to 0 times, the water transparency increased by 40%, and the number of surrounding bird populations increased by more than 20 species - a case that vividly confirms the ecological benefits of HDPE carat pipes in wetland protection.

Wetland protection is an important measure to protect the ecological balance, and the choice of infrastructure directly affects the long-term effect of the project. HDPE carat pipe takes "eco-friendly" as its core advantage and becomes the "invisible guardian" in wetland protection projects. In the future, AD Pipeline will continue to focus on technological innovation, optimize the performance of carat pipe, provide reliable support for more wetland protection projects, and help the "kidney of the earth" continue to rejuvenate.
