Protecting the East Rockingham Waste-to-Energy Plant

A remarkable energy project

The East Rockingham Waste to Energy Plant is a state-of-the-art facility that was designed with durability and protection in mind. The facility was constructed using high-quality materials that will ensure its longevity and all concrete surfaces within the plant were treated with INFRA-TECT hydrogel system, which provides excellent protection against acid attacks that can cause significant damage over time.

The use of concrete hydrogels for durability was particularly important in the ash storage shed, where the risk of acid damage is particularly high due to the nature of the materials stored there. This treatment will not only protect the concrete surfaces, but it will also help to prevent any potential environmental damage that could result from acid leaks.

Variations on the system were used on all other warehouses within the plant to provide surface hardening and anti-dusting durability. This will ensure that the plant can withstand the wear and tear that comes with extended use, and that it will continue to operate at peak efficiency for many years to come.

With these advanced treatments, the East Rockingham Waste to Energy Plant is well-equipped to meet the demands of the future and to provide sustainable energy solutions for the community.
