Power generation facilities operate in harsh and demanding environments, making corrosion prevention for power generation a critical concern. Components in biomass energy plants, hydroelectric power plants, solar power energy systems, geothermal facilities, and wind power systems face continuous exposure to moisture, fluctuating temperatures, airborne contaminants, and harsh chemicals. If left unchecked, corrosion can lead to

The mining industry faces persistent challenges from corrosion, which is a natural degradation process exacerbated by harsh environments. Consequently, corrosion impacts equipment, safety, and profitability. Therefore, implementing proactive solutions is essential. In addition, this blog explores how ZERUST®’s corrosion prevention and remediation products address corrosion challenges in the mining industry. Corrosion Challenges in the Mining

When evaluating the integrity and safety of pressurized systems, two widely used methods are pneumatic and hydrostatic pressure testing. For industries such as oil and gas, pipeline integrity is critical. Selecting the right method can ensure safety, accuracy, and cost-efficiency. This blog will focus on the benefits and challenges of each testing method, emphasizing the

What is Hydrostatic Testing Hydrostatic testing is a technique used to verify the durability of pressure vessels, pipes, and other equipment, essential for detecting leaks and ensuring the structural integrity of these components. By filling items with water and pressurizing them, industries can ensure these assets will endure operational stresses.     Purpose and Applications

Heat exchangers are critical components in various industries, responsible for transferring heat between fluids to regulate temperature and ensure efficient system operation. Despite their importance, these systems often operate in challenging environments where exposure to humidity, fluctuating temperatures, and corrosive chemicals can lead to significant corrosion. Corrosion issues are particularly prevalent during outdoor storage and

Corrosion is a silent threat that plagues control rooms and electronics in industrial settings. As a result, it can cause circuitry failures, compromise equipment reliability, and ultimately lead to costly downtime. In this blog post, we’ll explore the challenges of corrosion control in control rooms and electronics and how innovative products like ZERUST® ActivDri™ Packets,

Corrosion protection holds key importance in electrical and electronic applications. Two common approaches for achieving this are conformal coatings (CC) and ZERUST® Axxanol™ 718-ESS, a multimetal electrical corrosion inhibitor spray. In this blog post, we’ll delve into the key differences between these two methods, their respective advantages and disadvantages, and how Axxanol™ 718-ESS stacks up

Globalization is based on transporting metal goods, but it has challenges. One of these challenges is protecting metal goods from corrosion during domestic and international transit. As a result, manufacturers transporting metal goods can suffer significant financial losses and reputational damage due to corrosion. Fortunately, ZERUST® transit coatings offer a reliable solution to this problem.

Rust is a persistent problem for metal surfaces, especially those exposed to harsh environments. If left unchecked, rust can cause significant damage and undermine the strength of metal objects. So, to safeguard against rust, it’s essential to use the right rust preventative. But with so many options available, it can be tough to determine which

In the manufacturing world, many companies go to great lengths to select products and processes to prevent rust and corrosion from forming on their valuable metal assets during transit and storage. They will probably incorporate volatile corrosion inhibitor (VCI) packaging, rust preventative (RP) coatings, desiccants, or some combination of them. But what happens when their
