Chapter One APPLICATIONS Coal Mine Coal mines have successfully used FRP epoxy resin pipe, according to the Fiber Glass Resources Corporation. The material is capable of handling freshwater, acid mine water and slurries more effectively than mild steel and considerably cheaper than stainless steel. Additionally, FRP is well suited for remote areas, fire protection lines, boreholes and rough terrain installations. Paper Mill A paper mill in Wisconsin was experiencing a problem with large concentrations of sodium hydroxide that was a byproduct of the deinking process. Type 316 stainless steel was replaced with a corrosion resistant FRP using bell and spigot-joining methods to further reduce installation costs. Power Production Circulating water pipes of 96 inch diameter FRP were specially designed to meet the engineering challenges of thBeig Cajun #2 fossil fuel power plant in New Roads, LA. The instability of the soil precluded the use of conventional thrust blocks to absorb axial loads. By custom lay-up of axial fiber, the pipe itself was made to handle these loads. Additionally, custom elbow joints were engineered to improve flow characteristics in tight turns.
