The PE/PO-lined steel tank is leaking
Thread Content
Currently, there are many types of PE/PO-lined steel materials, and in some areas they show a tendency to replace fiberglass products. However, during the use of PE/PO-lined steel, defects in manufacturing or improper use later on can cause leaks in the inner lining, leading to problems with the steel shell of the tank； For example, in flue gas acid production systems, if leaks are detected in the power wave cycle steel tank shell causing dilute acid to leak out, what measures or emergency actions do you usually take to address this issue?
PO stands for polyolefin, while PE refers to polyethylene. In the case of equipment with a steel lining covered in PO/PE, if there are leaks in the lining layer, it is recommended to contact the manufacturer first so that they can carry out a simple repair on-site. (At that time, the interior of the tank must be cleaned first to allow access for repairs), as this type of material is applied using a hot rolling coating process.
