Louisiana Tech University’s Trenchless Technology Center has been awarded a research project by NASSCO to study air emissions from the steam-cured CIPP process and the potential impact on workers and the public.
NASSCO reviewed multiple responses to its request for proposals before deciding on the Trenchless Technology Center, which will partner with the Army Corps of Engineers’ Engineer Research and Development Center on the study.
The research project will be Phase 2 of a larger study that began last December. Phase 1 was a four-month study conducted by researchers at the University of Texas at Arlington’s Center for Underground Infrastructure Research and
