The SUEZ plant has requested a “safe to touch” feature for their steem pipes t be installed in water treatment plants. The insurance claims from industrial accidents when manintence staff would accidently touch hot pipes (150-200oC) causing skin burns (temp over 58oC would cause skin burns) were a significant problem for the company. After installing a thin layer of C-COAT the staff was fully protected from accidental skin burns.
In about next 6 months SUEZ also have noticed a reduction in energy consumption at those plants and this subject is now a matter of further investiagtion where we are estimating energy savings from about 15% to 35%.
