Abstract: Through the years the natural gas distribution industry has utilized, for piping materials. the most effective product available - consistent with current technology. We have all heard of the Chinese and their bamboo piping systems. A lot of us are familiar with a much more recent development than this wooden mains used during the manufactured gas era. These two piping materials worked very well under the operating conditions prevailing during their times. Now bamboo wouldnt stand up under normal distribution pressures, and wooden mains would leak like a sieve with the very dry gas being transmitted. The high moisture content of the manufactured gas kept the wooden mains sufficiently swelled to allow limited leakage at the low operating pressure.
