The ideal choice for durable value preservation of the complex tank facilities

Wash water is used during production processes for cooling and flushing of plant components. May  also be used to reduce emissions. During industrial processes, The water is thereby contaminated with residues of binding material and glass fibers.

During the production process, the settling tank is constantly filled. Residual materials settle, the cleaned water drains through the overflow weir and is being channeled to further storage tanks. From there, the filtered water is taken again for the fabrication procedure.  

Due to the re-use of the wash water, 80% reduction of water consumption is achieved.

High requirements regarding corrosion protection are placed in this use case. The internal walls of the various wash water tanks are exposed to an exceeding surface wear by the contained solids and glass fibers. Precisely in the bottom area of the settling tanks extreme abrasions are caused through movement of stirring devices. Only a high-performance coating can prevent permanently from wear marks and corrosion damages.

 

Why is Proguard CN 200 the ideal choice for durable value preservation of the complex tank facilities?

Only a high performance coating can prevent permanent damage effects of wear and corrosion. ProGuard CN 200 is a two pack ultra-modern hybrid-resin based ceramic composite providing outstanding chemical resistance, abrasion and corrosion protection to a wide variety of steel and concrete substrates in aggressive environments at elevated temperatures.

 

9 different tanks for wash water were coated with Proguard CN 200:

 

• 3 Vacuum vessels, each 3,5 m³

• 1 Oven tank, 5 m³

• 1 Shaker screen tank, 40 m³

• 1 Tank for filtered wash water, 80 m³

• 1 Wash water buffer tank, 100 m³

• 2 Settling tanks with stirring devices, each 160 m³
