Corrosion-Resistant Piping Systems / Edition 1

by P.E. Schweitzer

Overview

This work presents a step-by-step procedure for determining the most suitable piping material for any given situation. It describes all corrosion-resistant piping systems - including thermoset and thermoplastic, lined and metallic systems and miscellaneous systems such as glass, carbon and clay. A compatibility table for each piping system, compiling the corrosion resistance of over 175 common corrodents, is provided.

Corrosion Reviews

Provides a single source with which to compare the corrosion- resistant, physical, and mechanical properties of various piping materials. To this end, solid plastic piping systems, metallic piping systems, and miscellaneous piping systems such as glass, carbon, and clay are included. A section covering the materials of construction available for double-containment piping systems, as well as their design, use, and installation, is also included. Sections are also included on good piping design practice, which is necessary to maintain the corrosion-resistant properties of the piping material. The compatibility of each piping system is compared to a list of 180 of the most common corrodents. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
