Deterioration of Wastewater Treatment and Collection System Assets: Knowing Where and How to Look

Product Number: 41206-271-SG

Author: R. A. Nixon

Publication Date: 2006

$20.00

After 35 years or longer in service, the concrete infrastructure in wastewater collection systems and treatment plants has deteriorated due to various corrosion and physical degradation mechanisms. This paper reviews the major mechanisms that cause deterioration of concrete and protective coatings. Also, examples of infrastructure degradation are presented along with a discussion of the best diagnostic methods for condition assessment of concrete for the various mechanisms.

Effect of Chloride on the SCC Behavior of Carbon Steel Welds Exposed to Concrete Pore Water under Anoxic Conditions

Product Number: 51323-19029-SG

In all nuclear power generating countries, high-activity, long-lived radioactive waste is an unavoidable by-product of the contribution of this energy to the global electricity generation. Disposal in deep, stable geological formations is, at present, the most promising option accepted at an international level for the long-term management of these wastes. Geological disposal relies on a combination of engineered (man-made) barriers and a natural barrier (the host rock), in order to prevent radionuclides and other contaminants ever reaching concentrations outside the container at which they could present an unacceptable risk for people and the environment.

The Hanford site contains approximately 55 million gallons (2.08 x 108 liters) of radioactive and chemically hazardous wastes arising from weapons production, beginning with World War II and continuing through he Cold War era. The wastes are stored in 177 carbon steel underground storage tanks, of which 149 are single-shell tanks (SSTs) and the remaining are double-shell tanks (DSTs). Historically, tank failures have been associated with the SSTs

Galvanic Corrosion Protection of Reinforced Concrete Structures

Product Number: MECC23-20192-SG

Author: Laith Haboubi; George Sergi C.Eng.; David Whitmore P.Eng

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

Chloride induced corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete structural elements is a major worldwide problem [1]. Chlorides can be introduced into the concrete via de-icing salts, seawater, high salinity groundwater or sabkha soils [1.2]. This leads to localised breakdown of the normally passive steel reinforcement in the form of pitting corrosion [2].

Hard Truths about Concrete Polishing

Product Number: 41212-702-SG

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.

High Voltage Porosity Testing Continuous DC vs. Pulsed DC

Product Number: 41212-674-SG

Author: JF Fletcher

Publication Date: 2012

$20.00

In certain protective coating applications, it is vital to test the finished system for flaws and pinholes, as these defects can lead to premature coating failure in service. This is particularly important when the coating is used in an immersion or partial immersion situation such as for tank or pipe linings.

History of Sealers and Coatings in Decorative Concrete

Product Number: 41212-712-SG

Author: Chris Sullivan

Publication Date: 2012

$20.00

Over the last 30 years clear coatings and sealers have gone from a secondary supporting role in the decorative concrete industry to a primary role with an established and defined market presence. This paper will discuss the history of clear coatings and sealers as they have evolved to meet the rapidly changing demands of the decorative concrete industry.

The life-cycle of concrete structures used in waste water systems should consider all factors that might cause a structural system to perform unacceptably at any point during its lifetime. This includes the progressive and sustained loss of load capacity caused by operational or environmental factors. In general terms, deterioration can be defined as a loss of structural load capacity with time as a result of the action of external agents causing chemical attacks or material weakening due to these environmental interactions.
