API 936 - Refractory Material Design, Application, Installation and Inspection
API 936 - Refractory Material Design, Application, Installation and Inspection
API 936 Refractory Technology: Refractory technology has changed significantly in recent years as new monolithic refractory materials have replaced brick in many industries. Vibratable and pumpable castables with superior properties, as well as significantly improved brick, ceramic fiber products, and other items, make optimum refractory selection complex.
Advanced construction methods must be utilized if these improved materials are to achieve their maximum service life. This course includes a review of refractory fundamentals while emphasizing selection and construction techniques for a variety of applications in refineries, chemical plants, industrial furnaces, incinerators, and utility boilers.
The API 936 covers practical guidelines for inspecting and repairing existing linings, criteria for field testing and accepting new installations, and vendor certification of materials prior to shipment.
