Problem: Due to the long-term contact of the gas pipeline with the harsh environment inside and outside(As the gas is transported for a long distance, the temperature continues to decrease, and the water vapor in the gas condenses. The salty substances in the gas dissolve in the condensed water to form an aqueous solution with higher salt content; There are corrosive compounds in the gas, which dissolve in water and chemically react with the metal on the inner wall. Acidic substances dissolve in the condensed water, resulting in acid corrosion due to the low pH value. Then, under the action of the physical erosion of dust, it brings serious harm to the pipeline.), the gas pipeline has suffered from thinning walls and pitting after long-term operation. There are 4 leaking spots in the gas pipeline, which leads to potential safety hazards. It is necessary for an urgent on-site application to seal reinforce the gas pipeline.
