Ceramic Polymer:Coating of two activated carbon filters and a collection container for a service wa

ROEDINGHAUSEN, Germany - Oct. 23, 2015 - PRLog -- Ceramic Polymer GmbH manufactures high-quality coating systems for a wide range of applications. For the water treatment system of a parking garage in Berlin, special tanks were coated internally with their product PROGUARD CN 200.

Ceramic Polymer’s internal coating provides excellent chemical resistance and temperature stability. But equally important for this application case is the extremely good abrasion resistance of PROGUARD CN 200.

Usually, sharp-edged granular activated carbon (GAC) is used for water purification; conventional coatings would be damaged rapidly by the durable friction.

In Germany, the Waste Water Ordinance forbids the disposal of toxic substances into the sewage system. Service water from the parking garage, which is contaminated with oil residues and chemical detergents, must not get into effluents without filtering. Thus, a suitable collecting container and 2 big activated carbon filters are applied for the cleaning of the process water in the car park.

Beside the excellent physical properties, the solvent-free coating system PROGUARD CN 200 features a very simple treatment. After blast cleaning, the product is applied directly onto the steel by normal airless spraying method.  The ceramic filled PROGUARD CN 200 facilitates a uniform and immaculate coat. One layer of 500 µm already contributes essentially to a long-lasting service life of the tanks.
