All components within a plant have a direct influence on each other, for example, a change in raw material composition may trigger a new aging mechanism. Therefore, it is crucial to know what your damage mechanisms are within a plant, as well as what your repair or replacement options are. This information is crucial to anyone involved in the maintenance of an aging facility, and involves multiple disciplines including engineering, operations, and health and safety.
The Managing Aging Plants USA Conference & Expo 2020, taking place on October 6th and 7th at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, TX, will feature a workshop session focusing on Materials and Damage Mechanisms. This session will explore the various metallic and non-metallic repair solutions for damage mechanisms, as well as the different components that can experience deterioration in a plant, including valves, pumps, heat exchangers, tanks, etc.
