This paper focuses on properly inspecting the performance of the coatings on pipe to support interfaces and soil to air interfaces, and what can be done to adequately plan for corrosion prevention and protect ambient temperature piping at natural gas compressor stations and petroleum tank farms.

Optimizing power generated from wind needs bigger improved designs and windy conditions, thus increasing installations offshore. As component costs decrease and processes improve, it can be profitable for farm developers to go further from shore into deeper waters and high-risk areas. In addition, the lifecycle expectancies of a coating system have developed along the way, moving from a typical >15 years expected lifetime in a given environment, to now >25 years.
Vapor/wet blasting is proving to be an attractive method for surface preparation of steel, concrete, wood and other substrates. By using just enough media and water to suppress dust and achieve the desired production rates, Vapor Abrasive® blasting avoids the dusty side effects of dry blasting and the messy runoff generated by wet blasting. To achieve optimal results in Vapor Abrasive® blasting, the system must be properly matched for the job at hand.
Update on the regulatory issues impacting industrial coatings industry. Will review the status of implementation of the EPA Hazardous Waste Generator Requirements, OSHA standards and enforcement actions. Will also discuss Regulations that could or have been Repealed, Replaced or Modified under Presidential Executive Order 13777 and changes to the EPA and OSHA.
This program is intended to be a resource for instructors of occupational safety and health and is not a substitute for any of the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 or for any standards issued by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
Cities and towns across the nation are undergoing revitalization programs at an ever-increasing pace as citizens demand better recreation facilities, more choices in housing and entertainment, and maximum benefits of economic development. But what do city planners do when their “ugly old water tower” stands right smack dab in the middle of the area to be redeveloped? Their water system needs the tank, but their constituents don’t like the looks of it…so they make it the landmark at the center of their plans!
Protective coatings exposed to sunlight must withstand multiple environmental stresses: ultraviolet light, moisture, heat, corrosive chlorides and other salts, and atmospheric pollutants. Two decades after the publication of a sequential UV and cyclic salt spray test method in ASTM D5894, some efforts to create better and more predictive test methods have focused on delivering both UV and salt spray in a single chamber and adding additional stresses such as ozone exposure, air pressure fluctuations, atmospheric pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, and other environmental factors.
Discussion around the basics of shop-based air powered abrasive blasting, some of the criteria which should be considered when choosing a surface preparation method and ways to reduce costs associated with this process. Technologies and Industry Best Practices are often overlooked or circumvented in the name of tradition or cost savings- but the results of these choices can be very harmful. The conversation will be centered around taking steps to maintain or increase production, while increasing departmental profits.
Surface Applied Corrosion Inhibitors (SACI) remain controversial as to effectiveness and the ability to compare materials from different manufacturers and technologies. These materials are liquids applied to the surface of concrete to control the corrosion of embedded reinforcing steel. This presentation will discuss the performance and relative importance of a recent testing program for corrosion inhibition and other performance parameters using documented test methods.
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) undertook recoating of the superstructure steel components of the SR 292 high-level bridge over the Intracoastal Water Way (ICWW) in Perdido Key, Florida, which carries one lane of traffic in each direction and is the only connection between Perdido Key and the mainland. Due to the significant impact to businesses and the public, including tourists, from any proposed lane closures, FDOT looked for other means to address the deteriorating paint system, provide for a longer service life, and complete the work without any lane closures on the bridge.
SSPC-SP 13/NACE No. 6, “Surface Preparation of Concrete” has just been revised and given a major face lift. It is quite different than the previous 2003 version with more content. It became evident during the revision of the standard that there was wide and intense interest and so this presentation is meant as an introduction to the new standard highlighting the revisions.
Dry film thickness (DFT) is an important parameter of coating application, and both low and high DFTs can result in coating failures. Typically, DFTs are measured in accordance with SSPC-PA 2, “Procedure for Determining Conformance to Dry Coating Thickness Requirements” (1), or other similar standards. Recent advancements in technology have resulted in DFT probes capable of achieving a higher rate of DFT data collection than previous devices.
