Emergency Expansion Joint Repair - Fabric over a Fabric! : A major US refinery contacted Valtech Engineering reporting a leak from a failed fabric expansion joint in flue gas ducting. To avoid a costly shut down of the FCCU the repair needed to be performed while the unit remained online. The objective was to contain the leaking flue gas by installing an oversize fabric expansion joint over the existing failed joint. With great collaboration between Valtech Engineering and the client, the leak was 100% contained with zero safety incidents. The clamshell repair is designed for maintenance free operation until client's next scheduled FCCU turn around.
