Upset Conditions In Anaerobic Digesters In Wastewater Treatment Plants Cause Degradation Of Protective Linings

Upset Conditions In Anaerobic Digesters In Wastewater Treatment Plants Cause Degradation Of Protective Linings
Available for download

Both mesophilic and thermophilic anaerobic digesters are currently being utilized to treat sludge derived from more than typical municipal sewerage sources.  Wastewater treatment plants are accepting septage and sludge from food waste and industrial contributors routinely today.  Receiving these other sources of waste which are extremely high in volatile solids is a source of significant income for the utilities.

Both mesophilic and thermophilic anaerobic digesters are currently being utilized to treat sludge derived from more than typical municipal sewerage sources.  Wastewater treatment plants are accepting septage and sludge from food waste and industrial contributors routinely today.  Receiving these other sources of waste which are extremely high in volatile solids is a source of significant income for the utilities.  However, high volatile solids loading into the digesters can cause out-of-balance biochemical conditions in the digesters.  High volatile fatty acid to alkalinity ratios and low methane production are but a few of the repercussions of these imbalanced conditions.  These process upsets result in high acetic, propionic and other intermediate fatty acids.  These exposures, when sufficiently prolonged, can cause degradation to the polymers in some protective coating systems commonly used successfully in the past.

Very High Strength Low Alloy Steels For HPHT Applications

More and more High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) sour wells are operated worldwide. Challenging material selection is required for such severe operating conditions.1,2 Very high strength materials, presenting yield strength above 896 MPa (130 ksi), are required for sustaining the pressure. Consequently, even a low amount of H2S in the gas phase may lead to a H2S partial pressure beyond the limit of 3.5 mbar (0.05 psi) established in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 standard.3 Indeed, both high yield strengths and partial pressures of H2S contribute to a situation where the risk of Sulfide Stress Cracking (SSC) is high. The present paper is focusing on the SSC resistance of 130 ksi minimum yield strength material developed for covering such HPHT applications.
