For a steam power plant operated by “Porvoon Energia“, a solution had to be found to replace the extremely corroded steel pipes for the transport of cooling water efficiently and quickly. The medium to be transported is sea water. It is known for its high corrosion potential of metals and has impressively demonstrated this with the existing steel pipeline after only 4 years in operation.

The purpose of the project was to install a ventilation pipeline system capable of making a Clean Room facility work. These types of conditions are often required in industry fields like Pharmaceutical, Electronics and Food. The main point of conflict is the size of the building, which will require a huge air flow and in consequence large pipe diameters.

The project consisted in replacing a metallic pipeline into two new plastic pipelines. One line should transport caustic soda at 50% concentration and the other sulfuric acid at 90%. Both conduits are used as a transportation between the chemical tanks located outdoors to the laundry process of the factory. Atolli Oy supplied the design, technical advice, materials, installation and maintenance.
