AI Thread Summary
For lining a dosing tank used in an auxiliary boiler, options include spray-on products like Rhino, known for their toughness and ease of application. The tank, which is approximately 1 meter in diameter and 2 meters tall, requires a solution that can withstand chemical exposure, particularly for substances like Phosphate or Morpholine. Surface rust can be addressed with a grinder before applying the liner. If further assistance is needed, DIY forums may provide additional insights. Proper selection of a lining material is crucial for maintaining the tank's functionality and longevity.

I have an old tank on site that is in need of some TLC. Its a dosing tank for our aux boiler. It has a good bit of surface rust but its nothing a grinder can't fix. Does anyone know of a product I could line this tank with? Maby some sort of spray on product or a product that can be laid up?}

Tank is roughly 1m diamter and 2m tall.

If no answer here, maybe try a d-i-y site. I'm not in the UK but I sometimes ask handyman questions on the uk usenet group, uk.d-i-y[/color] and they are very helpful.
 
I don't know what a dosing tank is, and therefore not the chemical/thermal/etc. resistance you need. There's a spray-on material for lining pick-up truck beds. It's incredibly tough and easy to apply. I think that the brand name is Rhino.
 
Sorry, dosing tank is used to mix chemicals, in this case Phosphate or Morpholine and pump it into the boiler to condition the water to get proper ph and such.

The tank is exposed to room temperature and is made of steel.
 
Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...
I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
