The 2018 Managing Aging Plants USA Conference and Exhibition, organized by Stainless Steel World Americas and The Materials Technology Institute (MTI), will be held on November 13 and 14, 2018 at the Royal Sonesta Houston Galleria Hotel in Houston, Texas. One of the Steering Committee Members, Mr. Michael Yee, Chief Executive Officer & Founder of RTConsults, took the time to discuss his current role involving non-metallic materials, his past participation with the previous Managing Aging Plants USA Conference, and his goals for the upcoming show.
He shared a little bit about the presentation that he will be giving at the upcoming show in November, My experience deals a lot with failure analysis and my proposed presentation will go into the lessons learned of why it failed and how to mitigate the issues before it becomes too late. It will also promote what a non-metallic reliability program should encompass.
The topics include aging foundations, secondary containments, duplex stainless steels, linings, and non-metallic such as chemical resistant masonry and FRP.
