ACE DuraFlo CEO Named to
AWWARF / EPA Project Advisory Committee
PLACENTIA, Calif., Sept. 6, 2006 (PRIMEZONE)
-- ACE DuraFlo Systems, LLC is pleased to
announce the appointment their CEO and Chief
Technology Officer, Larry Gillanders, to
the American Water Works Association Research
Foundation (AWWARF) and Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) sponsored Project Advisory Committee.
The objective of the research project 4033,
Impact of Phosphate Corrosion Inhibitors
on Cement-Based Pipes and Lining, is to determine
the impact of phosphate chemicals on the
formation of protective scales, lime leaching,
and water quality for cement-based pipes
and linings. The research should evaluate
implications for lead and copper rule (LCR)
optimization and corrosion control.
"This project will provide information
for utilities to make informed decisions
regarding the use, effectiveness, and application
of corrosion inhibitor chemicals on cement-based
pipes and linings," says Gillanders.
ACE DuraFlo Systems LLC is also a participant
in the AWWARF/EPA sponsored project 3015,
Non-Uniform Corrosion in Copper Piping.
Gillanders is a co-founder and co-developer
of ACE DuraFlo's, patent pending, "in-place" pipe
restoration technology which restores failing
copper and encrusted galvanized piping systems,
generally without the extensive demolition
that accompanies a traditional plumbing repipe.
The process involves the application of an
epoxy barrier coating resulting in a restored
epoxy lined plumbing system called ePIPE(tm).
ACE DuraFlo offers a complete permanent solution
for pinhole leaks and corrosion control for
both commercial and residential plumbing
systems.
