CONSIDERATIONS FOR SELECTING AND APPLYING LININGS IN LARGE DIAMETER COOLING WATER PIPE AND PENSTOCKS

CONSIDERATIONS FOR SELECTING AND APPLYING LININGS IN LARGE DIAMETER COOLING WATER PIPE AND PENSTOCKS
Available for download

The installation of linings to large diameter cooling pipes and penstocks is a major investment in hydroelectric and other power plants. The application should be performed in an expedient manner to minimize outage time and should last for many years (20 years or more) without the need for maintenance painting.

The installation of linings to large diameter cooling pipes and penstocks is a major investment in hydroelectric and other power plants. The application should be performed in an expedient manner to minimize outage time and should last for many years (20 years or more) without the need for maintenance painting. The latter is significantly important since many hydroelectric plants are located in remote areas. To achieve these goals, planning needs to be done long before the start of the lining process. This paper provides a compilation of the necessary tasks to plan for and implement a successful application. The factors that need to be considered when selecting a lining, the types of linings that are available and are typically used, important requirements that need to be included in a specification, and safety considerations are discussed.

While commercial painting is often thought to be less rigorous or less technical than industrial painting, the commercial painting industry has its own set of demands on a coating and is not without its share of coating problems. The authors experience demonstrates that there are commonalities in failures of coatings in commercial painting.

There are a number of petrochemical plants that experience equipment failure and production loss due to corrosion. Proper maintenance of their existing equipment greatly reduces a plant’s down time therefore allowing production to continue. For those facilities that do not have an existing maintenance-painting program, we have developed a beginners / non-technical program guide that is easy to understand and implement as it addresses many plant’s existing and future coating systems.

Concrete Rehabilitation Scenarios from Initial Repair to Coating Protection

Product Number: 41210-570-SG

In many instances, concrete needs to be repaired and waterproofed prior to coating. General practices apply across many different market segments. Vertical, horizontal and overhead repair scenarios have many things in common and a variety of repair products to consider depending on jobsite conditions, time frame and ultimate exposure of the repair materials (chemicals, weather, movement, etc.). The purpose of this paper will be to outline, in general terms, different types of repair scenarios that have a proven track record and are available for owners, engineers/architects, and contractors to utilize.
