Bull riveter in operation, January 24, 1913.
Location: NYC W.C.P.P. ROCKAWAY
Problem: Struvite

The New York City Department of Environmental Protection Water Control Pollution Plant successfully tested the Merus USA ring on
a severe Struviet problem which meant the replacement of piping every few months.  An 5" Merus USA ring was installed on July 2nd, 2007 on our recommendation. The pipe was approx. 90% clogged when the Merus USA ring was first placed.  On Oct 25th, 2007 the pipe was re-opened to check and validate the function  of the ring . 
When re-opened, the results were amazing.  The Struvite appeared to have been disintegrated and pipe was no longer clogged. Please see pictures below.
