Stey by step in obtaining corrosion protection for concrete storage room

Where was the project developed?

In the city of Radeberg (Germany) are used modern water treatment techniques. Besides treating sludge sewerage system, resulting gases from fermenting organic waste are extracted. Therefore, the cost for maintaining the efficiency of these plants are relatively high.

To reduce maintenance costs and reduce downtime, a corrosion protection system was applied on the concrete surface of the storage room.

Restoration of the concrete storage room

An area of 300 m² was restored, including the walls and floor storage room. Every year, 14,000 tons of organic waste are temporarily stored in this room.

Step by step in applying corrosion protection system

The first phase consisted of surface preparation by blasting. The walls were treated with a primer and filler. Also, posts affected were flattened with a mortar. The last step was the application of the product CP-Synthofloor  Beta 8016, providing chemical and abrasion resistance.

For high-grade and durable chemical resistance, the wall area was coated with our premium product Proguard CN-1M; simply by conventional hand tools as roll or brush.

 Deep concrete erosion occurred on the floor area, thus a separate and extensive treatment was required. Our low viscosity-system CP-Synthofloor 8002 was applied first as a primer, then in combination with kiln dried quartz sand as a grout. The layer was up to 5 cm thick until the floor was equalized. After curing the surface was undercoated and saturated with CP-Synthofloor Beta 8016. Thereby, the substrate was optimally prepared for the application of our high-performance product Proguard CN-1M.
