Wastewater Coatings
Sanitary sewer collection systems and wastewater treatment plants are constantly exposed to harsh elements, including moisture, chemicals, gases, and microbial activity. These environments demand specialized coatings to preserve the structural integrity of the concrete used in tanks, vaults, and pipelines.
Our wastewater coatings provide protection against microbial-induced corrosion (MIC), water infiltration, exfiltration, and H₂S gas. These solutions are critical for maintaining the durability and safety of infrastructure in aggressive and corrosive conditions.
Specialized Protection for Harsh Wastewater Environments
Over time, unprotected concrete in wastewater systems becomes vulnerable to biological and chemical attack. The presence of hydrogen sulfide gas (H₂S), high humidity, and microbial organisms accelerates corrosion and weakens the structure, leading to costly repairs or total failure if not addressed early.
We apply coatings like Xypex crystalline systems, epoxies, and polyurethanes that penetrate deep into the substrate or provide a protective barrier. These coatings seal the structure from within or coat the surface, significantly increasing the service life of critical infrastructure like clarifiers, digesters, and wet wells.
