Corrosion, either internal or external, along with other types of defects on pipelines eventually lead to leaks without proper treatment. This gives rise to several issues, including environmental and safety hazards, and in case of pipe leaks in a plant, a loss of the efficiency of the process or, ultimately, failure of the process. Replacing the corroded pipelines (piping) can be difficult, costly and time consuming especially for plant. A required shutdown causes major economic loss. Thus, instead of a replacement of the defected pipelines, the installation of online repair is a better option.
Repairs of pipelines include metallic and non-metallic repairs. Metallic repairs generally require welding or hot works which is not suitable for online repair of pipes containing hydrocarbons. In such cases the use of non-metallic composite repairs is the optimum solution. A non-metallic composite repair system is a system used to reinforce structures using a fiber equipped with a thermoset epoxy system. The epoxy system consists of a hardener and a resin which, after mixing, become solid through a polymerization reaction after a short duration of time, a process that is called curing. Depending on the temperature, the duration of time changes in an inverse relation. The higher the temperature, the smaller the duration of time needed for curing. This system can be used to reinforce pipelines with both external and internal corrosion and it can be used on Straight Pipes, Tees, Elbows, Flanges and weld joints. The repair system can also be installed online without the need for a shutdown in a short amount of time and a small requirement of labor intensity, making it cost effective. It is also environmentally friendly. In this paper we are going to present cases that were resolved by our company that demonstrate how successful these non-metallic composite repairs are and how diverse their applications can be

Non-Metallic Materials for Design and Construction of Mineral Extraction Equipment

Product Number: 51323-19455-SG

Author: K. Lambrych, L.J. Bennett

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

Rare earth elements (REE) and lithium are metals that are considered critical materials due to their use in electronics, magnets, batteries, and a wide variety of industrial processes important for the economy and military preparedness. Today, these metals are commonly harvested as metal oxide, halide or hydroxide minerals. Fiber reinforced p with even greater design temperatures lastic (FRP) has been used with great success for more than 50 years to build corrosion resistant mineral processing equipment.

Mining is the essential process of extracting materials from the earth. It dates back to prehistoric times when the earliest humans mined flint, copper and gold. These basic materials were then used for tools, weapons, currency. Today, there is a wide array of mined products from the extraction of valuable materials. Mining is a growing industry with many varied processes and system designs depending on the extraction requirements, processing techniques, and restoration of the land after a mind is closed.

Non-Toxic Novel Silicone Foul-Release Marine Coatings

Product Number: 41212-713-SG

Author: Rob Thomaier

Publication Date: 2012

$20.00

With new regulations restricting the use of toxic metals and chemicals, the marine coating industry is in need of new coatings. Ideally, these new materials should be non-toxic and biologically inert but still prevent the adhesion of marine life. The coatings should be easy to apply, cure rapidly and be relatively tough elastomers.

A new acrylic epoxy hybrid (AEH) water based dispersion has been developed for two-components coating applications for several years. This new AEH dispersion can be used to replace the conventional water based epoxy dispersions for concrete and metal coatings. The curing agent selection for the new AEH dispersion is critical for metal applications for both formulation stability and the performance such as corrosion resistance, water resistance and UV durability. This paper discusses the utility of using ζ-potential and water solubility in curing agent selection.

Novel Application of Nitrate as H2S Control Strategy in Permian Basin Produced Water Storage Ponds

Product Number: 51323-18968-SG

Produced water recycling for hydraulic fracturing (fracking) operations has been an increasingly common practice to support oil and gas development in the Permian Basin. Aside from the economic benefits associated with reusing the water produced which is a byproduct of oil and gas operations, recycling reduces both the need for sourcing water (brackish or fresh) from the environment as well as the volume of produced water requiring disposal. Produced water ponds support successful recycling by providing temporary storage of recycled water and volume buffer for fracking. Raw produced water is usually treated in recycling facilities before being stored in the ponds.
