...This chapter discusses the materials commonly used in desalination plants, and where to find the appropriate properties when designing a component or part of a plant. The main focus is on the welding of metals and fabrication of polymers because these are areas where problems can arise...

...The compositions and properties of the materials commonly used in desalination plants are discussed in this chapter. The nominal compositions of the different alloys are collected in Appendix A , for ready reference from anyplace in the book. Austenitic Cast Iron. Austenitic cast irons...

...This chapter is concerned with materials that can be used in the aqueous processing of minerals and ores. It discusses the composition and mechanical properties of some commonly used metals, ceramics and polymers. STAINLESS STEELS Additions of chromium to steel increase its corrosion resistance...

...Materials stewardship is an informed approach to materials management that addresses the maintenance of the material during product ownership and the “second life” of the material after its present use expires. Materials stewardship has been expressed as the four Ds strategies of dematerialization...

...Introduction Corrosion literature is filled with data about the performance of various materials in a great variety of industrial and natural environments. Engineers must constantly be on guard when considering such information, to be certain not only that the chemical environment is adequately...

...UNIFIED NUMBERING SYSTEM FOR METALS AND ALLOYS. The following tables on composition and mechanical properties of metallic materials were compiled from data given in the indicated API, ASTM, ASME, and UNS standards. COMMON NAMES OF UNS ALLOYS-Nonferrous. COMMON NAMES OF UNS ALLOYS-Ferrous...

... fabrication and use of a structure, system, or part. One effort targeted at the latter approach is mass reduction by utilizing lightweight materials. INTRODUCTION Reduction of vehicle mass is one of the most effective ways to reduce the fuel burn of transportation structures. Minimizing vehicle mass does...

...Introduction. Materials selection is a strategy to understand the key issues in selecting materials associated with CO₂, H₂S, produced water, marine atmosphere, and submerged and cold temperature environments; and to use guidelines to select a cost-appropriate material...

...Introduction. The term “nonmetallic materials,” when mentioned in petroleum production, usually refers to the terms “plastic” or “fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP)”; FRP is also referred to as “fiberglass” and is used interchangeably with FRP in the petroleum production industry and in this book...

...First Glance The principal material of construction (metallurgy) of crude units and upgraders is and has always been carbon steel. When annual or biennial turnarounds were the norm, regular replacement of corroded carbon steel components “in kind” presented no particular issues or restrictions...
