Problem statement. The most expensive and vulnerable part of the city's engineering infrastructure are pipeline systems that divert wastewater from the settlement. The state of the environment, the efficient operation of the city's enterprises, and the comfort of the citizens living directly depend on their uninterrupted operation and the level of reliability. Thus, the primary task of utilities is to ensure the reliable performance of sewer networks. When repairing and restoring large-diameter sewer pipelines that transport wastewater by gravity, the actual task is the choice of materials that will improve the reliability and service life of drainage systems. At present, the requirements for composites have increased, especially in terms of their heat and chemical resistance, resistance to the action of microorganisms, groundwater and wastewater. One of the most effective options that meets the listed criteria is the use of materials based on basalt. The purpose of the article is to analyze the use of basalt in the repair and restoration of water supply and sewerage networks. Results. The article analyzes the mineral resource base of rocks as a one-component raw material for the manufacture of basalt fiber materials and composites based on them. The importance of the organization of production of basalt fiber materials and the prospects of their use to solve the economic problems of Ukraine: construction, utilities. The analysis of the properties of basalt continuous fibers in comparison with glass fibers of type E and S, carbon and aramid fibers is carried out. It is determined that basalt fiber materials, composites and products based on them are promising for use in the repair and restoration of water supply and sewerage networks.
