Abstract

L'invention porte sur un procédé de rénovation in-situ de conduites. Un doublage tubulaire (5) d'un matériau sensiblement absorbant est formé et reçoit une vessie gonflable (7), puis le doublage (5) est imprégné d'une résine durcissant à froid, la surface extérieure du doublage et/ou la surface intérieure de la conduite ((8) à rénover sont revêtues d'un revêtement adhésif hydrofuge (16) avant introduction dans la conduite (8) avec la vessie associée (8). On gonfle alors la vessie (7) à l'aide d'un fluide gazeux de manière à plaquer le doublage (5) contre la paroi intérieure (19) de la conduite. La pression dans la vessie est maintenue jusqu'au durcissement du doublage (5) imprégné de résine. On peut alors retirer la vessie (7) du doublage durci (5).
