FRP using Derakane™ epoxy vinyl ester resins has long been used in coal fired plants due to the highly corrosive elements found in the flue gas desulfurization (FGD) scrubbing process. More recently FRP vessels constructed with Derakane™ are being used to contain wet FGD waste to help meet effluent limitation guidelines (ELG.)
INEOS Derakane™ resins are commonly found in:
- Coal-fired power plants, where their superior abrasion and corrosion resistance protect scrubbers, piping and duct
- Highly corrosive environments with hot, wet, acidic gases
- Water processing tanks and piping
- Cooling towers, pultruded structural profiles (railing and grating), and fan shrouds
