Managing Expansion in Above-Ground HDPE Piping Installations HDPE piping has become a go-to choice for engineers and project managers thanks to its flexibility, durability, and resistance to corrosion. It’s especially effective in demanding environments, such as regional mine sites or suspended pipe galleries, where adaptability and longevity are crucial. One of the most important factors …
HDPE, carbon steel or stainless steel? As budgets get tighter and the expectation to reduce costs continues to rise, all businesses are on the lookout for ways to save. While some of the more obvious costs are quickly considered, reducing energy usage and the associated costs is a critical item to consider. While carbon steel …
Image: Highlighting the challenge of fitting a 3D bend, this photo shows a modified guardrail to accommodate it. Contrastingly, the 1.5D bend behind seamlessly fits in the same position, offering optimal performance without altering the guardrail. How to replace steel bends We recently received a customer query about how to get HDPE bends to match …
In 2022, an international mining company specialising in nickel and cobalt approached Advanced Piping Systems for assistance in a time-sensitive project related to their mine expansion. A case study about the mining project The company’s Queensland Area Sales Manager, Andrew Chawynski, explained that the client needed support with an offshore project aimed at increasing their …
With excellent chemical resistance, HDPE (or poly pipe) can be used in a wide range of chemical processes and applications. Recognising this, in late 2022, our specialist Fabrication team was selected to design, fabricate, and test a Hydrochloric Acid Unloading Priming Tank for a large multinational organisation. An HDPE prefabrication success story The tank – …
Maxi stub flanges — comprising a hybrid stub flange and backing ring — are a quick and effective solution to reduce a flange size whilst keeping your HDPE pipeline internal diameter (ID) consistent. They’re particularly useful when your poly pipe system features a magnetic flow meter. That’s because maxi flange adaptors are specifically designed for …
Water contamination is a common and widespread health risk throughout South-East Asia. To purify drinking water in many countries across this region, a process called ‘reverse osmosis’ is used to make water safe for human consumption. It’s considered one of the most effective forms of water filtration. It works by pushing water through a microscopically …
