Introduction: What Are Marine and Offshore Steel Structures? Marine and offshore steel structures are steel components and infrastructure designed for use in or around marine environments. These can include offshore pylons, platforms, decks, supports, and other structural steel exposed to moisture, salt spray and changing environmental conditions. Because these structures are exposed to demanding conditions, […]
INTRODUCTION: SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT PROTECTIVE LININGS Sewage treatment plants (STPs), pump stations, and wastewater collection systems operate under some of the most destructive environmental conditions in municipal and industrial infrastructure. Biogenic sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) generated by hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) gas rapidly degrades concrete and corrodes steel, leading to structural failures and costly downtime. Liquimix provides […]
Superior Concrete Protection with Liquimix Tufflon P90 & Civilox LV100 Municipal sewer networks and wastewater infrastructure are constantly exposed to hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) gas, biogenic sulfuric acid corrosion, groundwater infiltration, and heavy structural loading. Traditional concrete manholes deteriorate over time, leading to environmental contamination and costly asset failures.The Liquimix Polyurea System combining Civilox LV100 deep-penetrating […]
Long-Term H2S Corrosion Protection & Rapid Turnaround with Civilox LV100 and Tufflon P80 Pump station wet wells, manholes, and lift stations operate in some of the most aggressive environments in civil infrastructure. Between biogenic sulfuric acid attack (H2S gas), severe hydraulic turbulence, concrete movement, and continuous liquid immersion, traditional coatings quickly crack, delaminate, or dissolve. […]
Introduction: What are Clarifiers? Clarifiers are essential components in water and wastewater treatment plants. These large settling tanks—typically constructed of concrete or steel—are designed to continuously remove solid particulates or suspended solids from liquids through sedimentation. Because they sit at the heart of the treatment process, clarifiers are constantly exposed to mechanical wear from scrapers, […]
Introduction: The Relentless Attack on Concrete Infrastructure Water Treatment Plants (WTPs) and Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) are crucial, yet constantly under attack. Concrete tanks, clarifiers, and secondary containment areas are relentlessly assaulted by two primary threats: Chemical Corrosion: Acids, caustic chemicals, and disinfection byproducts (like chlorine and ozone) leach minerals from the concrete, leading to […]
For assets exposed to the harsh atmospheric elements, the focus shifts from permanent immersion (internal lining) to External lining mitigating UV degradation, thermal cycling, and atmospheric corrosion. Liquimix recommends a robust, multi-layered system centered on high-performance polyurea and UV-stable polyaspartic technology. External Tank Protection & Corrosion Control Solutions The Recommended System: Tufflon Polyurea & Opalon […]
Tank refurbishment and lining – both steel panel / welded tanks and concrete tanks are perfectly suited to Tufflon range of products – the proven performer for permanent immersion. Chemical resistant to a wide range of chemicals such as chlorine, diesel, copper sulphate, hydraulic oil, sodium chloride and many more. Tufflon is Australia’s most trusted […]
Remediation, protection and life extension of a water facility The three-step life extension program: 1.Prepare Damaged concrete that has been corroded and broken, chipped or cracked must be rehabilitated. This will often require concrete leak repair, replacement or repair of reinforcement bars and rendering to rehabilitate the concrete substrate back to its original profile. 2.Prime […]
