This paper will provide an overview of activities related to the nondestructive examination of dry storage casks for spent nuclear fuel. The aim is to help ensure their integrity over extended interim storage periods.
This paper outlines a study to assess existing mechanical and chemical cleaning techniques in oil processing plants, natural gas liquid (NGL), and utility facilities. The cleaning assessment covered the major equipment at crude stabilization units.
Acrylic based thermal insulative coating (TIC) was compared to one-component and two-component epoxy TICs. Adhesion, hardness, tensile strength, water absorption, water fog resistance, and other tests were performed.
A series of accidents involving falls from or in water tanks has highlighted inadequacies in tank design and a potentially greater problem. The rescue may be more dangerous than the original accident, with the potential for more loss of life or injury.
Challenges associated with coordinating the modelling, design, and installation of an alternating current interference and mitigation systems. The project consisted of a 65 kilometer long double circuit 500 kilovolt (kV) overhead transmission in a heavily congested right-of-way corridor with more than 80 pipelines.
The increased use of high-performance fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in aerospace, marine, alternative energy, civil, and architectural projects has presented challenges. Defects in composite parts require thorough investigation to ensure compliance with safety requirements and overall structural integrity.
This paper focuses on the advancements of FRP composites and their specific applications in structural engineering, with a particular emphasis on Premier Composite Technologies.
In early 2009 the City of Sunnyvale in Northern California put out to bid a repaint of three five‐million gallon water tank exteriors. The tanks existing coatings qualified as leadbased paint with average concentrations of 120,000ppm or 12% lead. The three tanks were successfully abrasive blasted to an SSPC SP‐10 and recoated with a zinc/acrylic system without erection of an SSPC Guide 6 Type 1A enshrouding containment. This paper tells the story of how this was done successfully using standard but not often seen work practices, even though the project was right next door to an elementary school and multi‐family residential developments and so had to perform to the strictest levels of environmental standards.
This paper focuses on the Norwegian offshore sector and on the type of coating systems that are currently selected for new platforms. Where shall the coating be used, what coatings are chosen and why have they been chosen.
At a Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), the security, training, and safety requirements are quite complex when compared to industrial or commercial facilities. Security requirements start with the completion of an extensive personnel qualification and employment history questionnaire followed by background screening, and security program training. Safety in a NPP includes nuclear safety in addition to the typical industrial safety training.
This paper will discuss the relationship between corrosion and hazardous locations and how to achieve the overall best performance and safety of your conduit system. What makes an area corrosive often makes it hazardous, in fact the elements that are necessary for either corrosion or an explosion are very similar.
This NACE best-seller is based on the authors' course, The Corrosion & Protection of Metals. This edition of this classic text is based on notes used by the authors for more than a decade in their course, The Corrosion and Protection of Metals. The authors emphasize the engineering aspects of corrosion and its control in ways that will be helpful to the practicing engineer. Topics covered include corrosion economics, detecting and monitoring corrosion, regulations, specifications, safety, and the selection and use of materials, with special emphasis on stainless steels. 1995 NACE E-BOOK
