Breakthrough in In-Situ Chimney Internal Coating - Remarkable Achievement by Kirloskar Corrocoat Pvt. Ltd.

  KCPL becomes the only Indian company to achieve Milestone of completing in-situ coating of Chimney metallic stack internal surface 2 No (130 Mtr Ht. & 3.2 Mtr. Dia ) at one of the state-of-the-art Refinery in the Northern India during shutdown as per agreed time frame. The work was carried out on Turnkey Basis i.e. Manufacturing, Supply of coating material, Project Machinery arrangement for Chimney internal movement, Cleaning of dust inside the chimney with High Pressure Water Jetting, Surface preparation as per SA 3 and Coating application in controlled environment. The chimney will be operating without flue gas desulfurization for a few years, at a temperature in the range of 135-150°C and it was confirmed by the client that if the preheater failed, the temperature could rise as high as 300°C for between 15 to 30 minutes. Corrothane XT – “A Three Pack cold cured vinyl ester urethane polymer alloy with glass flake” was selected for the service condition inside chimney d...

  Corrosion affects everybody in one way or another. Monuments, structures, and products are a small percentage of infrastructure affected by the damage of corrosion. If corroded objects are left untreated, noticeable effects can start being present within the human body including: Harm to the digestive tract Skin and eye irritation Respiratory damage If we look at pure monetary terms, the cost of corrosion is estimated at between 3% and 6% of gross domestic product, amounting to a worldwide figure of 1409 billion dollars. Corrosion protection saves not only time and money but avoids many other problems including adverse publicity following corrosion-related incidents and/or loss of production. How Do Our Anti – Corrosion Coatings Work? Our coatings use glass flake fillers which are impermeable to increase considerably the diffusion path through the coating. This produces a barrier layer slowing moisture diffusion and the corrosion potential to a near non-existent level. The flakes...
