Polyurea provides a secondary containment option through its relative versatility and easy set up.

 

A secondary extraction system is a fail-safe method that you can use when you need to catch drifting chemical vapors and remove them from the area for disposal. The reasons why secondary extraction is needed vary widely, but it often happens in industrial settings where spills are frequent or releases cause health concerns.

Most first time oil spill emergencies are mitigated while local responders establish a safe perimeter around the site of the leak. The containment powder acts by reducing surface tension on spilled oil normally sticking to any materials like flood water

Polyurea is an eco-friendly coating that is resilient to most chemical spills and doesn't have the adverse health effects that some of the older coatings have. The end result is a flexible solution which ensures a safe, clean surface.

Polyurea provides a secondary containment option through its relative versatility and easy set up. This means that it provides value on several levels such as; facilities design, multi-site usage, commercial viability, and operational budget cost.

In terms of secondary containment system design Polyurea allows for improved technological differentiation in the marketplace by being able to create unique product designs aimed at maximizing commercial viability and enhancing operations budget cost to the maximum extent possible.

The most common application of these wet-aisle systems is in the food industry where they are used to containions with different substances - while they may look complicated on paper, they really only consist of four items.

Leak Mitigation: The primary function of these Polyurea coatings are leak mitigation; after all, what purpose would a secondary containment system serve if it did not protect the integrity of your underground water sources? However, some users have found that it can provide relief from catastrophic events such as disruptive well plugging.

Polyurea coatings are recommended for secondary containment on hot process areas due to its easy maintenance aspect. It is also an alternative to other methods such as clay liners or absorbent polypropylene (Ap3e), which typically costs more upfront.

From oil supply/storage tanks and pipeline

Silicone coatings can be applied on objects, components and materials such as storage tanks, piping, pumps, valves and other components. For some containment systems in oil or gas plant facilities, polyurea coatings are applied around the sensitive piping that is close to an active area.

The CPSW as an AI-assistant: An artificial intelligence tool has been designed to assist when it comes to determining which conditions require secondary containment. The conditions include any change of input pressure or temperature; a release of pressure or flow rate; changes in liquid surface tension; the level of the contained fluid or a system shift from line operating mode (LOM) to leaking mode (LM).
