Sulphuric Acid Attack on Concrete Tanks

of sulphate-resistant concrete. 2. "Bacterial Acid" Corrosion Interior concrete walls are also attacked when sulphuric acid forms in the airspace above the waterline. Eastern Ontario especially has high sulphur in the source water, both as sulphate or sulphide, both of which form hydrogen sulphide in the septic tank or pump tank. Get price

Building on acid sulphate soil

CODE REQUIREMENTS FOR SULFATE DURABILITY IN

The sulfate table first appeared in an ACI code in 1983 (it was mentioned in the Commentary to ACI 318-77), and its first appearance in a Uniform Building Code was in 1985. The sulfate table establishes four categories of soil sulfate exposure, negligible, moderate, severe, and very severe, each defined by the percentage of water-soluble Get price

Sulfate and water quality

Sulfate ions also are involved in complexing and precipitation reactions which affect solubility of metals and other substances. Sulfates in water to be used for certain industrial processes such as sugar production and concrete manufacturing must be reduced below 20 mg/L. Get price

The effect of pH on solubility of nano

Overall means of solubility in all examined pH for WMTA, BA, and nano WMTA were 1.31, 2.507, and 0.62, respectively [Figure 1].The samples of WMTA and BA groups in pH = 4.4 showed significantly higher solubility in comparison with specimens in pH = 7.4 and pH = 10.4 (P 0.05), however it was not significant between nano WMTA samples (P 0.05).There was also a significant interaction between Get price

Recommended Practice for Design, Manufacture, and

upper bound concentrations of 2.00% of water-soluble sulfate and 10,000 ppm for waters). However, for higher-strength concretes (6000 psi [41.4 MPa] and greater) employed in the manufacture of prestressed concrete piles, the 8% limit on C 3 A is considered adequate for sulfate concentrations over 0.20%.

DURABILITY OF CONCRETE IN ACIDIC SOILS AND WATERS

Tables giving requirements for concrete exposed to: i) sulphate, II) acidic water; and III) attack from acids of ph greater than 2.5 are provided as is a table setting out the French standard for concrete in acid and sulphate groundwaters. A procedure for the classification of acid soils and waters is also suggested. Availability: Get price

What are Acid Sulfate Soils and Why are They a Problem

Acid Sulfate Soils Conference.

Effect of Temperature and Acidity of Sulfuric Acid on

Oct 10, 2017In this investigation, the concrete samples are submerged in three sulfuric acid solutions (pH = 0.5, 1, and 2) for 91 days under different temperatures (10, 20, and 30C). Mass loss and compressive strength of the concrete specimens were tested and recorded at 7, 14, 28, 42, 56, and 91 days, providing interesting data for visualizing the Get price

EFFECTS OF SURFACTANT (SODIUM LAURYL SULPHATE) ON

The effects were observed at five different concentrations. The experimental set up was laid within the open space of the Department of Environmental Studies, GIS, GITAM University. The duration of the experiment was 24 days. The results showed significant effect of sodium lauryl sulphate on plant's morphology (browning of shoots, Get price

CRETEDEFENDER How Salt Damages Concrete

Concrete is exposed to sulfates in two ways, externally sourced and internally sourced. Most commonly, sulfate attack occurs where concrete is exposed to high sulfate content in the soil, in areas of run-off, and in wastewater. Secondly, portland cement contains a small percentage of gypsum (calcium sulfate Get price

Corrosion of Reinforced Concrete Specimens Exposed to

Concrete in farm buildings is subjected to severe corrosion if manure is stored below slatted floors. Many chemicals associated with manure are identified as having a detrimental effect on concrete and the reinforcing steel embedded in the concrete. Of these, hydrogen sulfide is the Get price

Factors affecting durability of concrete • Aggregate

Sulfate attack in concrete and mortar Sulfate attack can be 'external' or 'internal'. External: due to penetration of sulfates in solution, in groundwater for example, into the concrete from outside. Internal: due to a soluble source being incorporated into the concrete at the time of mixing, gypsum in the aggregate, for example. Get price

Iron Sulfate as a Concrete Stain

Sep 29, 2011My concrete Platonic solids stained with iron sulfate.I'm not a big fan of concrete in the garden. It raises soil alkalinity (a problem for us, here in the Southwestern US) and it prevents rain from infiltrating into the ground. That being said, concrete is occasionally useful and/or unavoidable.

Nitric acid can be formed from the compounds and radicals of nitrates in the presence of water 3NO2 + H2O 2HNO3 + NO Though HNO3 is not as strong as H2SO4, its effect on concrete at brief exposure is more destructive since it transforms CH into highly soluble calcium nitrate salt and low soluble calcium nitro-aluminate hydrate Get price

Effect of Sulphate and Acid on Self

Self-compacting concrete requires high powder content which implies increased cost and increased CO 2 emission into the environment; hence, the need for the inculcation of a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) to the concrete mix such as corn cob ash (CCA) which is obtained by drying, grinding and burning the corn cobs. The chemical composition of the corn cob ash showed that it was Get price
