Author: Joe Reardon

Publication Date: 2012

$20.00

The benefits of concrete floor polishing include creation of a durable finish with modest maintenance requirements and compliance with principals of green construction. At the same time, however, there must be rigorous adherence to proper procedures in the creation of a concrete polished finish. The presentation describes the benefits of polished concrete and explains what can go wrong and why it sometimes happens.

How Can New Coating Technologies Secure Long Lasting Corrosion Protection even under Unpredictable Surface Conditions?

Product Number: MECC23-20116-SG

All ships need periodic maintenance, either onboard a FPSO, in a water ballast tank or a hull side of a marine vessel. When preparing for maintenance of such structures it has been standard practice to sandblast the surface. Sandblasting creates superb surfaces for coating application with ultimate cleanliness, but due to the dust generated by the process it is facing more local restrictions due to environmental impact and HSE.

Equipment can have an important impact on the production at a refinery, petrochemical, or chemical plant. Change of equipment will often have a negative impact since it can disrupt the production with shutdowns, which will lead to production losses. In the long term, these short lifetimes for the equipment will cause many shutdowns, which will give a higher production cost. One example of equipment is the shell-and-tube heat exchanger.

The U.S. Air Force will never eliminate corrosion in aerospace systems, but synchronized efforts can help sustain positive trends in conserving maintenance dollars, increasing system availability, and reducing corrosion-related mishaps. The AF Corrosion Control and Prevention Executive established an aggressive goal to reduce corrosion’s effects by 20% by 2025: a 20% reduction in corrosion maintenance costs; a 20% reduction in non-available hours (NAH) due to corrosion repairs; and a 20% reduction in corrosion-related safety mishaps.

Impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) is one corrosion management approach adopted by the Port of Newcastle (PoN) for their reinforced concrete wharves. The Port’s West Basin 3 wharf, has ICCP systems installed to select substructure concrete elements (beams). The West Basin 3 ICCP system to the front beam soffit section was installed in 1998 (rear beam soffit sections having been protected from 2014). Other ICCP systems have also been installed by the PoN during the period 2002 to 2005 for the West Basin Wharf 4, East Basin (1 & 2) wharves and the Kooragang K2 wharf. This paper provides background to the different ICCP systems utilized and details performance results for the West Basin 3 front beam ICCP system dating back more than 20 years. Monitoring results are presented and discussed. Performance assessment to protection criteria is undertaken and the CP system maintenance requirements are summarized.

Long-Term Cost Saving By Using High Alloyed Stainless Steel In Seawater Coolers

Product Number: 51322-17544-SG

Author: Jonas Höwing

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Copper alloys such as copper nickel (CuNi) and Admiralty Brass (CuZn) are often successful material selections for seawater coolers. The copper alloys successes in these highly corrosive environments can be attributes to the ability of copper to form a protective scale, thus stopping corrosion of the material. On copper alloys in seawater, the protective scale formed comprises a mix of cuprous oxide (Cu2O), copper oxide (CuO) and copper hydroxy chlorides.

To achieve adequate protection of assets, use of a protective coating is one of predominant methods used in the oil and gas industry. There are several factors contribute in the coating service life, including surface preparation, coating application, coating material and environmental conditions. It is well known in the coating industry that 70% of the coating failures are attributed to improper surface preparation.
