... In previous studies, InnoTech Alberta has explored the effectiveness of various cleaning pig designs through a devised test method involving the use of a flow loop. 5 Following successful development and application of the test method, more challenges involving pigging practices were explored. As stated...

... service. However, alloy 625 is relatively expensive because its chemical composition was designed to be suitable for a wide range of end uses in both high-temperature and aqueous corrosion-resistant applications. When less corrosion resistance is required, N08825 (alloy 825) is often used for similar...

...; sometimes the out-of-service schedule could be even longer (e.g., over 20 years) depending on the local regulations and engineering assessments. Therefore, the selection of an appropriate tank lining system and its application are critical for long term performance in maintaining the integrity of the assets...

... relieving or tempering post welding as re-austenitizing, quenching, and tempering is not practical in many applications. Double stress relief thermal cycles may be needed so that any martensite which forms due to transformation during the first stress relief cycle is tempered by the second stress relief...

... their limitations in terms of accessibility and day-to-day use. Warehouses and storage facilities are not always available and accessible in every location. To build one requires a lot of capital and sometimes it is not even practical considering the size of the equipment. Heavy-duty tarps may be applicable on some...

... of corrosion control activities (such as operational pigging, corrosion coupon and corrosion inhibitor residual), by the use of smart devices. An application was developed to capture the field information in the smart device and further connect to a centralized/organized database with automated data processing...

... Abstract Third Generation Polysiloxane (TGPS) ambient curing CUI mitigation coatings have been used in the petrochemical industry for over five years. These coating technologies have demonstrated positive results in both shop and field application for asset management in elevated temperature...

... ABSTRACT Closed hydronic loops are of critical importance in many applications including industrial process equipment as well as heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. In industrial applications, closed loops are typically used to cool essential processes or equipment that would...

... application ABSTRACT To increase efficiency, a wide range of energy-related applications is pushing components to higher temperatures where environmental degradation can be life limiting. Unlike mechanical properties such as creep, there is no simple degradation parameter to capture the time...

... ABSTRACT Polymer liners, especially polyethylene liners are commonly used in carbon steel lined pipe for water injection service. Historical seawater/produced water applications have a typical design temperature of 60°C or less and are usually operated from 30 to 40°C. Handling of oilfield...

... cathodic protection configurations are used worldwide in tanks. The field-erected mixed metal oxide (MMO) anode welded grid configuration was an early application of MMO anodes for tank bottoms and has a large global installed base. A newer design to protect tank bottoms is a system of parallel...

The coupon set at 20 cm had the highest measurement sensitivity and the coating exhibited blisters and corrosion pits after the application of AC and DC over 3 months...

... ABSTRACT Availability and accessibility to clean water for industrial applications such as hydrostatic pressure testing of pipelines, vessels, and plumbing distribution systems has been a challenging task especially when the job sites are in remote locations. These circumstances have forced...
