HVOF Coatings: Defending Components in the World’s Harshest Environments
In industries that push equipment to its limits—where searing temperatures, corrosive fluids, and abrasive slurries are everyday challenges—failure is not an option.
Improving Heat Exchanger Functionality with Nanobubble Technology to Achieve Net Zero Goals
Climate change is a critical environmental issue for this and future generations. Natural and human-induced activities have already warmed the global average surface temperature by 1.1°C.
Stainless Steel Valves in the Chemical Industry
Valves play a vital role in any piping system in the chemical, oil, and gas industries. Stainless steel, with its properties of strength, ductility, corrosion and heat resistance, low maintenance and unlimited lifecycle, has become an obvious choice due to its low cost.
Failure Analysis of 316L Stainless Steel Pipe
An insulated 4-inch 316L stainless steel pipe that leaked in hydrogen service was examined. The pipe was in 24/7 service, operating on alternate heating and cooling cycles.
Parallel Pin Expansion May Reduce Corrosion Risk
Material selection is a critical factor for heat exchangers working in corrosive applications, but tube expansion methods may also play a role in tube life.
