Select alloys that perform well in sulfuric acid
Article Abstract:
Nickel, chromium, molybdenum, copper and silicon are the elements used to improve the corrosion resistance of alloys used in sulfuric acid service. These alloys resist corrosion from sulfuric acid under both reducing and oxidizing conditions. Alloy 625 and Alloy C-276 are best suited under the severest conditions. On the other hand, corrosion in equipment used in sulfuric acid service can be solved by the addition of an oxidizing agent, through anodic protection and more corrosion-resistant alloys.

Consider drums for chemical transport
Article Abstract:
Plastic drums offer a number of advantages of other types of industrial containers including steel and fiber drums as well as intermediate bulk containers. These benefits include light weight, low cost, chemical and corrosion resistance properties, durability, reusability as well as seamless internal design that reduces the possibility of contamination. As the use of plastic drums increases, plastic drum makers are also developing ways to increase the life cycle of the drum and save users money.

Conveying: how dilute phase stacks up against dense phase
Article Abstract:
A number of factors must be considered in making a selection between dense- and dilute-phase pneumatic conveying systems, because such a decision is not automatic. These factors include system size, type of equipment required, as well as the corrosiveness, abrasiveness and temperature of the materials to be handled. The increasing interest in dense-phase conveying since 1980 and the variations of each type system make a comparison of their characteristics appropriate.
