Pipe, aluminum ceramic

The most commonly used pipe materials may be classified into four categories based on the mechanical erosion modes metals such as copper, aluminum, and steel ceramics... 

A 1500-W tubular heater is wrapped around the reactor. The autoclave is placed inside a copper pipe, with Fiberfrax bulk fiber insulation packed between the copper pipe and the reactor. Four 1000-W quarter-circle ceramic heaters are placed around the copper pipe. The space between the copper pipe and the ceramic heaters is filled with aluminum balls for efficient and uniform heat transfer from the heaters to the copper pipe. The bottom of the copper vessel is closed with a copper plate. Beneath the copper plate, there are two heaters (a small one of 500 W and a larger one of 1000 W), which are tightly clamped to the bottom copper plate. The top of the copper pipe is similarly covered with another copper plate, and two slots are provided for the feed and product gas lines, coolant inlet and outlet lines, thermocouple extension wires, and the lead wires of the tubular heater. Two ring heaters (660 and 1000 W) are placed on the top copper plate. One thermocouple and a tape heater are placed on the shaft extension to minimize the heat loss through the shaft. No insulation is placed around the ceramic heaters to achieve better control of...

Packed tower studies were made with a borosilicate glass column 4 inches in inside diameter packed with /4-inch ceramic Intalox saddles. The feed was metered through a rotameter from a constant-head tank, and distributed through the tower with a perforated aluminum plate. Aluminum tubing and polyethylene pipe were used to connect the ozone generator to the tower. A continuous sample was withdrawn from the tower bottom for analysis, and exit gas from the top of the tower was conducted to a wet-test meter for volume measurements. Ozone was absorbed in 5% potassium iodide solutions and titrated with thiosulfate to a starch end point. 

The practical utilization of silicon carbide and silicon nitride ceramics or of SiAlON in the above-mentioned application sectors has steadily increased in recent years. Ca. 400 t/a of SN-powder is currently consumed in the manufacture of SN-components. The main applications are for cutting tools, roller bearings, dosing and deliver pipes for aluminum processing, as well as a multiplicity of other components which enjoy the advantages of SN-ceramics. 

Band heaters are generally used on barrels of injection molding and extrusion equipment, dies, blow molding heads, and feed pipes. Mica-insulated band heaters are the most common type and can operate up to 371°C. Ceramic-insulated band heaters have thermal insulation to improve efficiency and conserve power, and they achieve operating temperatures of 815°C. Aluminum shoe-style band heaters... 

As illustrated in the form of a pipe cross-section in Fig. 10.1, MIC is responsible for the degradation of a wide range of materials [1]. Most metals and their alloys, for example, stainless steels, aluminum and copper alloys, polymers, ceramic materials, and concrete can be attacked by microorganisms. The synergistic effect of different microbes and degradation mechanisms should also...
