Preventing blockages using Chemcote Solution
Condition of surface before mechanical preparation RB 364 applied to spot abrasive blasted surfaces Pugmill externals Coating with InD Cote Previous Next OVERVIEW: A composite solution was used to restore the plant roof preventing moisture from entering and clogging up the entire fume suppression system. With the plant area back in service, the patched […]
Base Plate Corrosion Prevention
Repairs required Application of Primer Coating applied to affected areas After application of Topcoat Previous Next OVERVIEW: A 40 year old excess gas bleeder structure had been previously repaired by another contractor. Their coating failed within 2 years. Chemcote was engaged to rectify the faulty repairs with minimal interruption to plant service. After inspections carried […]
Corrosion Protection of Super Duplex against Sulphuric Acid
Condition before blasting and coating Vessel after blasting and coating External after blasting and coating OVERVIEW: Critical minerals such as nickel are often processed in industrial environments where exposure to chemicals and by-products are far from conducive to corrosion prevention. Combatting the elements like acid rain and atmospheric corrosion can be detrimental to plant […]
Preventing Stress Corrosion Pitting
Site Layout before equipment setup Previously applied coatings delaminated Ammonia Absorber Circulation Tank OVERVIEW: The 304 stainless steel ammonia absorber and circulation tank experience temperatures of up to 100°C and an aggressive Chemical environment. The prevention of stress corrosion pitting was achieved in the heat affected areas by applying corrosion protection on the entire […]
Improve Pump Efficiency with Chemco
After abrasive blast and heat treatment Internal coating completion Re-assembly OVERVIEW: The 8 year old pump had dropped off in efficiency due to the combination of corrosion erosion and mechanical fatigue. This was due to a poorly specified and applied coating which was delaminating allowing corrosion to exist. INDUSTRY Water Utilities ENVIRONMENT River Water […]
