100% Pure Polyurea Solves Serious Problem at Wastewater Treatment Plant

Product Number: 41206-252-SG

Author: Tony Ippoliti

Publication Date: 2006

$20.00

During the testing of circular grit chambers in a wastewater treatment plant under construction, serious leaking problems were discovered prior to project completion. After meetings with the Owner, Design and Construction engineering firms, painting contractor and coatings manufacturer, the decision was made to apply 80 mils of pure polyurea to various concrete surfaces. This presentation, through the use of photo images taken during remediation, describes the nature of the problem and how it was solved.

A Guide to Industrial Corrosion Management Implementation (E-Book)

Product Number: 37637-E

ISBN: 978-1-57590-371-2

Author: Ali Morshed

Publication Date: 2018

$125.00

Corrosion management (CM) is a rather new concept and expertise. Its origins go back to early 2000's. The CM concept emerged from the UK's offshore oil and gas industry; from where the author also started his professional career.

Due to this newness and a vast multitude of application benefits, there has been a constant growth in demands for the provision of CM awareness, training, expertise and consultancy year after year.

The author has so far compiled a total of four CM books and this one is the last in the series. It is also the most comprehensive among the four books, with a greater emphasis and focus on CM field implementation.

Therefore, if one intends to implement CM across their asset(s), then this book could provide them with the required advice, instructions and guidelines on proper CM field implementation for both hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon industries.

The book covers subjects from how to define the scope of work to report writing and communicating the latest integrity findings.

It is written in a simple and jargon-free language and intended for various disciplines including: corrosion and integrity engineers, inspection engineers, pipeline engineers, process engineers, maintenance engineers and asset integrity managers

A Practical Approach to the Rehabilitation of a Wastewater Treatment Facility: Utilizing Case Histories to Demonstrate “Real-Life” Applications

Product Number: 41212-664-SG

Author: Gary R. Hall, Lake H. Barrett Jr., Pete J. Jansen

Publication Date: 2012

$20.00

Wastewater collection and treatment systems face a more serious corrosion problem today than in the past. There are several reasons for this, including odor control, reduced I&I, chemical composition of sewage, an increase in the retention time, and concrete that is not of the same quality as it was only 30 years ago.

Accelerating Construction in Sewer Collection: Madison CMIC Pump Station #1 A Case Study

Product Number: 51219-226-SG

Author: Eric Zimmerman, Jennifer Sloan-Ziegler

Publication Date: 2019

$20.00

The County of Madison, MS. experienced severe degradation of a major pump station in their system that was less than 10 years old. They contracted with Waggoner Engineering of Jackson, MS. to design a rehabilitation system as well as increase the structural integrity with the addition of some support walls. The project created scheduling issues due to the addition of new concrete structures to the pump station. The use of innovative coatings technologies that offered the ability to apply corrosion resistant linings over green concrete structures, dramatically enhanced the project schedule and reduced overall costs.

All Fouled Up’ - An Innovative Solution

Product Number: 41215-914-SG

Author: Kevin Morris

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

Within the Wastewater Treatment process the growth of soft fouling materials (algae) create problems such as Total Suspended Solids issues, false BOD readings, clogged pumps, and reduced flow rates through the weirs of clarifiers. Furthermore, dead or dying algae can cause additional odor concerns. This phenomenon has cost municipalities and taxpayer’s untold amounts of money due to the required maintenance dollars spent to correct this problem.

Applying Common Sense to Moisture Vapor Emissions and Moisture Content Test Requirements When Coating Below Grade Concrete Structures in Wastewater Applications

Product Number: 41216-989-SG

Author: R. A. Nixon

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

When establishing the minimum conditions suitable for coating concrete, many coating manufacturers, and hence specifying engineers and contractors, generally rely on unrealistic moisture content and moisture vapor emission rate requirements. These compulsory values are founded on laboratory testing rather than field experience, or worse still, on supposition rooted in unachievable and unrelated requisites.

Cathodic Protection Monitoring In Water And Wastewater Systems

Product Number: 51322-17655-SG

Author: Jamey Hilleary

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

In 2002 NACE International published a cost of corrosion study backed by the U. S. Federal Highway and Safety Administration estimating the annual cost of corrosion in the U. S. to be $276 billion. In the more detailed breakdown of these costs by industry/market segment the cost associated with the water and wastewater utilities segment in the “Utilities” category was estimated at $36 billion. The water and wastewater utilities segment represented the single largest cost segment in the study. The $36 billion estimate for this single segment of the Utilities category represented more cost than any of the other four categories: Transportation, Infrastructure, Government, and Manufacturing & Production.

Ceramic Epoxy Coatings in Immersion

Product Number: 51217-070-SG

Author: Ben Rowland

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

Due to its success in the ductile iron wastewater pipe market, ceramic epoxy coatings are being increasingly specified and successfully applied on nearly every substrate used for immersion service in both the water & wastewater industry. Some unique characteristics set these epoxy coatings apart from their traditional counterparts. For instance, ceramic epoxy systems provide high-film builds, eliminate undercutting, minimize permeability, provide superior edge retention and form a non-ablative film.

Ceveat Emptor! Preparing Cementitious Mortars for Support HighPerformance Lining Systems: Broom Finish or Blasted Surface?

Product Number: 41209-497-SG

Author: Vaughn O’Dea, Rick Schwab

Publication Date: 2009

$20.00

Cementitious repair mortars are commonly used to rehabilitate deteriorated wastewater concrete infrastructure prior to the application of high-performance lining systems. Commonly such repair mortars receive a broom finish creating a “profiled” surface prior to the application of a spray applied protective lining system. Other recommendations require that that the cementitious mortars receive a blasted (mechanically profiled) surface to impart a mechanical profile prior to top coating with a similar lining system. In the following paper the authors summarize the results of an investigation to quantitatively assess adhesion of a protective lining when applied to a broom finish surface verses a blasted surface.

Clarifying Material Selection: Understanding the Corrosion Mechanisms for Wastewater Clarifier Mechanisms

Product Number: 51217-060-SG

Author: D. A. Sherman, R. A. Nixon

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

Wastewater treatment plant clarifier environments present challenges for selecting materials of construction. Coated carbon steel, hot-dip galvanized steel, and stainless steel are most commonly specified for new or refurbished clarifier mechanisms, and all have their advantages and disadvantages with regard to achieving the intended design life.
