CLTWater is one of the largest water entities in the Southeast region, managing a total of ten water and wastewater treatment plants serving a population of approximately one million. The MCWWMF is the largest wastewater treatment plant of five wastewater facilities owned and operated by CLTWater, rated at a 64 MGD treatment capacity and accounting for over half of CLTWater’s wastewater treatment system.

The McAlpine Creek Wastewater Management Facility (MCWWMF) is the largest wastewater treatment facility operated by Charlotte Water (CLTWater). In 2018, CLTWater began a Reliability and Process Improvements project. The project involved the rehabilitation of 16 secondary concrete clarifiers that ranged from 95 to 150 feet in diameter, with the oldest clarifiers being nearly 60 years old.

CLTWater considered an epoxy coating. However, they historically ran into issues with failures of delamination. Thus, they opted to move forward with a pilot study with four different epoxy manufacturers where they analyzed cost, schedule, performance, quality, service life, and safety. Concluding the test, CLTWater determined the single coat epoxy to provide the best value for their project.

The impact of corrosion on society is enormous. The National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) estimated that the global total cost of corrosion is ~$2.5 trillion (USD), approximately 3.4% of global GDP.1 In 2016, NACE released the “International Measures of Prevention, Applications, and Economics of Corrosion Technology” which estimates that implementing corrosion prevention best General Business practices could result in global savings between 13-15 percent of the cost of damage, or a savings between $375-875 billion (USD) annually on a global basis.

The formation of mineral scales is one of the most problematic threats to the oil and gas operations which can lead to loss of production, increased lifting costs and assets deterioration.1 Mineral scales can precipitate at any locations within an oil and gas production system and create blockage in perforations, production tubulars, pumps, and surface equipment. The formation of scale deposits can be attributed to the mixing of incompatible waters from different production zones or physical and chemical condition changes associated with produced water transporting from reservoir to wellhead and further to processing facilities.

One can find some of the most aggressive and corrosive environments for coatings in the process work and equipment functions for Oil and Gas Upstream facilities. These conditions have typically been handled using traditional coating options such as vinyl esters, epoxies, or baked phenolic linings. While these products are often tailored to environments with elevated temperatures and pressures found within upstream and “downhole” oil and gas production, the inception of new drilling techniques and the discovery of new shale basins has morphed the landscape of corrosive environments in this market.
