Abstract: The invention pertains to a process for sealing off ground sites in particular a waste dump, abandoned dumping grounds, pipelines or the like, or also excavated construction sites, using sealants, wherein a fully course-controlled boring technique is used to drive at least one bore underneath the ground site from the surface outside the ground site and the sealant is injected into the soil surrounding the bore. To implement the process, jets for injecting the sealant into the soil are mounted on the steerable remote-controlled boring head.

Abstract: For the induction of underground collector mains, in particular for the ctruction of horizontal filter wells and drainage mains, at least one bore (1) having respectively an inlet aperture (3) and an outlet aperture (4) is introduced into predetermined layers of soil. Then a filter strand drawing in unit (5) which consists of an inner filter strand and an outer protective pipe is inducted into the respective bore (1) and finally the outer protective pump of the filter strand drawing in unit (5) is removed. The filter strand in unit is used as a tool consisting of an inner filter strand and an outer protective pipe. In a preferred further development, the intermediate space between the inner filter strand and the outer protective pipe is provided with filter sand and/or a filter gravel filling.
