Book excerpt: Abrasive blasting of tanks and other enclosed spaces on-board ships comprises a large part of the work effort and budget allocated to surface preparation and coating for both new construction and repair contracts. Traditionally, disposable abrasives such as copper and coal slag have been used for tank blasting. The use of recoverable steel grit for tank blasting would appear to reduce or eliminate many of the problems associated with slag and mineral abrasives. Due to the durability and toughness of steel, steel grit can be reused many hundreds of times. Significantly smaller volumes of abrasive waste are generated for disposal. The durability of steel grit also results in very low dust generation, since the particles do not readily break down into fines. The recovery of steel abrasive through a vacuum recovery system greatly decreases environmental hazards by trapping paint chips and dust, which are segregated from the reusable abrasive. The higher density of steel grit in comparison to other abrasives produces increased cutting ability, while improving worker visibility through decreased dust generation. The increased cutting and low dust equate to increased productivity. Finally, the use of steel grit would not trigger the costly sampling and testing requirements of MILA- 22262A, since steel abrasive is not covered under this specification.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive monograph in blast cleaning technology, this book provides a comprehensive review of the technology, with an emphasis on practical applications. The author first systematically and critically reviews the theory behind the technology. Next you’ll learn about the state of current blast cleaning, surface quality aspects, and the effects of blast cleaning on the performance of applied coatings. You’ll also discover many of today’s cutting-edge applications, including micro-machining, polishing, maintenance, and surface preparation for coating applications. Finally, the author describes recent advanced applications in the machining industry, including blast cleaning-assisted laser milling.
Download or read book Hydroblasting and Coating of Steel Structures written by A. Momber and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-12-18 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KEY FEATURES: • This technique is growing in importance. • The first comprehensive book in this subject. A practical and comprehensive account of the technology and applications of hydroblasting, a technique used more and more in the preparation of steel and other surfaces. Steel surfaces will corrode unless they are properly prepared and coated. Such corrosion can have disastrous effects (eg bridge collapse) therefore the preparation of the surface is of major importance. Due to environmental pressure to move away from grit-blasting, high-pressure water can now be used to prepare surfaces, with few environmental costs. This book systematically and critically reviews the state of current hydroblasting technology and its applications. The book is essentially practical in nature and is written by an expert in the field.

This book was released on 1989 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shipyard painting is most often viewed as pure ship construction operations, where the painting of the hull, deck, superstructure, and cargo spaces makes up the total effort and cost. This view may be justified when analyzing various trade production costs as parts of the total ship cost. However, parts preparation and painting costs are significant when looked at in summary as a new construction or repair contract sub-cost item. Once addressed, the historical means and methods for small parts painting in shipyards appears to leave much room for improvement. This is particularly true when comparisons are made to other industries. What happens then when a systems approach is applied to shipyard small parts painting? Can study techniques analysis and design be adapted to facilitate painting systems which are cost effective for this industry? This paper attempts to answer these questions by presenting discussion of: 1. Manufacturing Concepts of Parts Painting; 2. Use of the Industrial Engineering Analysis; 3. Systems Configurations; and 4. Systems Cost and Justification.
