CPVC drain waste and vent fittings
A drain, waste and vent (“DWV”) fitting is made from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride.
1. A method for draining corrosive waste through a pipe fitting comprising chlorinated polyvinyl chloride, comprising the step of transporting through the pipe fitting chemical corrosive waste under the chemical resistance conditions set forth in ASTM Standard F1412, wherein the fitting comprises a bore having a pitch that changes by at least about ¼″ per foot.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the waste is an industrial process waste.
3. The method of claim 1 wherein the waste is an acid waste.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising the step of transporting the corrosive waste from the fitting into a pipe comprising CPVC, wherein the pipe is joined to the pipe fitting.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the pipe and pipe fitting are joined by solvent cement welding.
6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the pipe consists of CPVC and is disposed within a pipe made from a different material.
7. The method of claim 4 , wherein the pipe is connected to a corrosive waste system selected from the group consisting of a polypropylene waste system, a PVDF waste system, a glass waste system, a polyolefin waste system, and an iron waste system.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pipe fitting consists essentially of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pipe fitting consists of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the waste is an aliphatic solution.
11. The method of claim 1 wherein the pipe fitting is connected to a laboratory waste system.
