The corrosion-resistant properties of ZeCor® help our clients benefit from lower maintenance costs and higher plant productivity. We use MECS® ZeCor® material to replace traditional brick lining in sulfuric acid plant towers as it offers reduced weight, easier installation, and lower foundation costs. We also employ processes that allow us to decrease tower and pump tank diameters — a big advantage in lowering capital and operational costs.
Our ZeCor
® tower and pump tank designs feature
MECS® UniFlo® Acid Distributors and
Brink® Mist Eliminators to dramatically increase efficiency. In many cases, our towers and pump tanks can be shop-fabricated prior to plant shutdown, and staged on site for insertion as well as tower packing. This ensures minimal plant downtime during installation and a quick turnaround on plant revamps, as well as vastly lower future repair downtime. In fact, thanks to all of their material and fabrication advantages, our ZeCor
® alloy vessels deliver many years of safe, trouble-free operation for improved productivity.
Short for Zero Corrosion, our exclusive line of ZeCor® alloys beat sulfuric acid corrosion in a wide range of concentrations, temperatures, and specific applications. When compared to other, lower-performing material choices, the advantages of ZeCor® are clear.
