| Belzona® Restores Acid Flow By Refurbishing Concrete Channel | | | Industry:Power (POWR) | | | Application:Tanks and Chemical Containment Areas (TCC) | | | Customer Location:Coal-fired power station - Scotland | | | Application Date:May 2001 | | | Application Situation:A channel used to contain and transport sulfuric acid. | | | Problem:The concrete channel was deteriorated from the acid. A previously applied bituminous screed was failing which caused peaks and troughs in the channel. | | | Products:Belzona® 4181 | | | Substrate:Concrete | | | Application Method:The application was carried out in accordance with Belzona Know-How System Leaflet TCC-15. | | | Belzona Facts:The Belzona® 4181 leveled out all the peaks and troughs and it offers excellent impact resistance should any of the steel channel plates be dislocated and dropped during maintenance. Belzona® 4181 was the best solution because the channel is frequently exposed to sulfuric acid above ambient temperatures. | | | Photographs Description
