FRP pollution control components

As composite materials have been developed, composites are used as the material of choice for pollution control systems and components, which typically operate in a highly corrosive environment. Fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) provide high corrosion resistance, a high strength-to-weight ratio and cost advantages versus stainless steel and high nickel alloys also used in these applications.

A range of industries use FRP materials in systems that remove toxic gases and particulates from exhaust smoke and treat contaminated water and chemicals. Limestone slurries and chemical solutions used to reduce air pollution are abrasive and cause corrosion in metal components, making composites a perfect solution. Pollution control technology requires corrosion-resistant “scrubber” tanks and vessels (some over 100 feet in diameter), stacks, chimney liners, packing support systems, ductwork and piping.

Producing FRP pollution control components for coal-burning power plants primarily are scrubber systems and associated pipes and ductwork for the power industry. The factory uses a variety of FRP processes including filament winding, vacuum infusion and open molding. 

Pollution control systems have gotten larger in recent years and require more advanced technology in the composite work. This industry is looking much more closely at the fiber architecture and orientation to produce components that provide the strength and wear resistance they need.
