Presentation #1Thermoplastic Piping Systems for Environmental & Industrial Applications Learn about design and installation of thermoplastic piping systems designed for long-term use in chemical transport systems. Presentation includes overview of single wall piping and double contained systems in multiple materials including PE, PP, PVDF, and ECTFE. Feature and benefits as well as limitations will be discussed. This presentation will help engineers determine the appropriate solution for their chemical transport applications. Learning Objectives 1. Material Overview2. Benefits of Thermoplastics3. Design Criteria4. EPA Guidelines for Double Containment5. Installation Considerations6. Welding Methods, Equipment and TrainingPresentation #2PP-RCT for Plumbing, HVAC and Hydronics Learn about polypropylene material, specifically PP-RCT for use in process water lines, as well as in HVAC and hydronics applications. The presentation will compare and contrast the PP-RCT material to the two major metallic piping systems currently in use (copper and carbon steel) and demonstrate the benefits of PP-RCT over the metallic materials. The presentation will review certifications, material and installation costs, material design review for pressure and temperature capabilities, insulating properties and benefits, and energy efficiency regarding comparative pumping pressures and flow rates. LEED and “green” advantages are reviewed. Typical product applications are discussed Learning Objectives 1. Material Overview2. Comparative benefits of PP-RCT3. Design Criteria verses comparisons to Steel and Copper:4. Applications
