ZECOR® -Z = LOW CORROSION RATES + HIGH VALUE Sulfuric acid piping systems are one of the most vulnerable components of an acid plant. Traditional technologies make use of iron, plastic lined or merchant grade stainless steels. These piping systems, particularly those made of ductile iron, are comprised of numerous flange connections that represent potential leakage points resulting in serious safety and environmental risks not to mention ongoing maintenance costs. Depending on the particular concentrations and temperatures, the corrosion rate for ZeCor®-Z is less than 1 mpy (0.025mm/yr) in typical drying and absorbing tower circuits. the corrosion resistant ZeCor®-Z Alloy piping system has numerous advantages in the areas of maintenance, reliability, safety, ease of installation and range of pipe sizes available from stock or custom sized to your project. the MECS® ZeCor®-Z Alloy piping system combines the best in process knowledge, materials technology, quality systems and fabrication techniques. these practical advantages convert to real economic benefits to acid plant owners and operators.
