Durapol Technologies
DuraPol is the global leader in the field of advanced anti-corrosion, acid resistant coating, and chemical resistant coating technology. Our coatings prevent asset corrosion in the most demanding industrial processes deemed too severe for other coatings allowing greater process flexibility and extending operational life of equipment. This enables industry to operate in harmony with the environment while ensuring the safety of its employees and the public. Research and development are key to our success as we continually push the boundaries of polymer chemistry to achieve higher levels of coating performance. All our coatings are independently tested in certified laboratories as well as having specific service track records that exceed 10 years. Old assets can easily be protected within maintenance turnaround schedules. New equipment can be protected at the fabrication stage where DuraPol coatings are specified by the client. In both cases, our application engineers provide training and full supervision during projects to ensure quality compliance and trouble-free installation. DuraPol is synonymous with working in partnership with industry to offer a complete and effective anticorrosion package without costing the earth.
Key Coating Application Areas
- 1Internal carbon and stainless steel surfaces of acid gas absorbers, regenerators, reboilers, flash drums and associated pipework exposed to hot amine solutions including MEA, DEA, MDEA, DGA and ADIP and proprietary blends. DuraPol UHT has full resistance to all amnes at temperatures and pressures up to 150oC and 1000 psig respectively. DuraPol UHT has a +15 year proven track record in this type of service making it the first choice in protecting all equipment in acid gas treament plants.
- 2DuraPol UHT has been successfully applied to amine regenerators at several sites where CO2 is removed from flue gases using amine technology.
- 3Acid storage tanks, railcars and concrete secondary containment areas as well as acid neutralisation pits and tanks.
- 4Tanks storing chemicals from pH 1 to 14 and aggressive solvents at elevated temperatures. DuraPol UHT has unmatched resistance to 98% sulphuric acid at temperatures up to 80oC.
- 5Subsea duplex spool external surfaces operating at high temperatures with cathodic protection where chloride and hydrogen induced stree corrosion cracking can occur.
- 6Tanks and process vessels constructed from stainless steel or protected by alloy cladding are now being replaced with DuraPol coated carbon steel at a fraction of the cost.
- 7Evaporators and deaerators operating at close to 110oC are being routinely coated. Very first deaerators have now been in service for nearly 10 years without any coating damage.
- 8Hydrocarbon/water/gas three phase separators operating at pressures up to 2000 psig and temperatures up to 150oC.
- 9Flue gas ducts operating at temperatures up to 300oC.
- 10Concrete containment bunds exposed to a mixture of chemicals.
