Industrial Nanotech and its distributors are helping manufacturers decrease energy costs and create more efficient operating systems with Nansulate® coatings!  

Omnigenus Energy, Industrial Nanotech's Mexico distributor, assisted a large manufacturing client with an issue they were having with heat transferring through a large sheet metal wall that divides the main mezzanine from an area that holds six industrial ovens.  The heat transfer was causing uncomfortable working conditions. 

Nansulate® Translucent PT was applied at a 3-coat coverage to decrease the heat transfer.  Even before the coating was fully cured, measurements showed a reduction of wall surface temperature from 39.9C (103.8F) to 24.8C (76.6F)!  Further reduction is expected after the coating is completed cured.

Industrial Nanotech's Nansulate® is appearing throughout India.  Nansulate® is materializing in India's magazines, conferences and more!

 

 

 

Chemical Product Finder discusses how Nanocoatings can help companies recapture wasted energy loss in their article "Creating Sustainable and Efficient Process Plants with Nanotechnology":

 

Reducing costs and environmental impact with energy saving and sustainability strategies is a challenge that many plant and facility managers face on a daily basis...

 

Insulating equipment from heat loss or gain can significantly decrease energy costs, but many manufacturers have had to concede energy loss in certain process related equipment due to the inability to insulate with traditional products. Fibrous insulations like rock wool or fiberglass, even with cladding, tend to degrade quickly in high humidity and outdoor environments, decreasing their effectiveness while causing corrosion at the interface between the insulation and equipment surface. For this reason, reducing energy costs significantly and affordably in heat process industries has been challenging, especially in the chemical process industry, as well as many others. Many times equipment is left uninsulated due to the limitations of the past.

 

Advanced and targeted solutions created by the science of nanotechnology in the form of nanocoatings offer a way to insulate, prevent corrosion and Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI), and do so with a short-term payback and long-term performance. Nanotechnology is simply the manipulation of materials at a smaller scale than was previously possible... Nanocoatings that insulate, prevent corrosion and repel moisture offer a way to insulate equipment in all environments, even those, which can cause traditional materials to degrade. One such patented nanotechnology based coating line, called Nansulate®, by Industrial Nanotech, Inc. has been providing significant energy savings for manufacturers since 2004, while also protecting equipment from corrosion, increasing asset life. This technology transforms insulation into a simple spray-on thin film application and can be installed with minimal disruption of production activities. Its long-term durability and consistency of insulating ability of 5-10 years reduce replacement costs in addition to lowering energy consumption and related carbon emissions. 

 

...As the science of nanotechnology progresses, it will continue to change the way we see traditional methods of insulation, asset protection, and other process activities. And as more companies explore the uses of nanotechnology for energy savings, there will be a larger choice of new technology products commercialized that provide other sustainable benefits for manufacturers looking to reduce costs. The key is to be open to innovations, seek them out regularly, review them thoroughly, and implement a plan to evaluate them in your facility to your organization's benefit.

On January 21 and 22, Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) held a conference in New Delhi discussing "Industrial Waste Heat Recovery". 

According to FICCI, "studies have shown that as much as 20 to 50% of industrial energy consumption is ultimately discharged as waste heat.  Waste heat losses arise both from equipment inefficiencies and from thermodynamic limitations on equipment and processes." 

The conference was held to learn about new technologies and best practices for effective waste heat recovery, identify potential energy loss areas, and more. 

The meet concluded with a presentation on Nansulate® by Industrial Nanotech's distributor in India, Deepak Sharma from Dantech Engineers.  Attendees were completely intrigued by the product, asking numerous questions at the end.  Impressed with Nansulate®, FICCI invited Mr. Sharma to participate in the Mumbai conference, held January 29^th and 30^th.

With summer nearing an end, mild temperatures provide the perfect window to prepare for the cold, sleet, and snow of late fall & winter.

Protect exterior surfaces now and reduce maintenance costs later by preventing rust, moisture infiltration, cracking due to ice expansion, and other cold weather related issues.

Read below for more details on how Nansulate® insulation and protective coatings can reduce your energy and maintenance costs.

Check Building Envelope
Seal gaps in your building's thermal envelope to reduce energy costs.

Early Autumn is a great time to review your building's thermal envelope for weak areas where you need more insulation to reduce heating and cooling costs. Look for areas such as metal buildings or warehouses with metal roofs, single-pane windows or skylights, and solid walls with no cavity for insulation. Identify areas that allowed the most heat into the building in the summer, as these same areas will allow heat loss from the building in the winter.

Nansulate® Energy Protect is an easy paint-on liquid insulation for problem areas over non-metal walls, ceilings, windows or skylights to reduce heat transfer by approximately 34.8%, per testing over 8cm cement wall sections, while also providing surface protection qualities.

Use Nansulate® Translucent PT over metal building surfaces to insulate and prevent corrosion.

Nansulate® Energy Protect

Nansulate® Translucent PT

Nansulate® Diamond was specifically desired because of its fast curing time.  Nansulate® Diamond decreases the surface temperature of several kinds of pipes, boilers, ovens, machinery, equipment, vats, mixers, and more with the additional benefits of surface protection, corrosion resistance, worker safety, and increased energy efficiency.  This fast-cure, non-slip coating allows these benefits to be seen quickly.  

Finding a long-term solution for insulation of pipes and tanks can be a challenge. Especially with larger outdoor tanks and steam pipes in humid environments.

Nansulate®  coatings were originally developed to address the insulation and corrosion needs of pipes, tanks, and equipment. To provide not only a better weather resistant solution, but also a more cost effective one.

Read below for more details on how liquid insulation can reduce your energy and maintenance costs.

Weather Resistant
Insulation that resists rain and prevents corrosion means lower maintenance costs.

Nansulate® coatings wrap any tank, pipe, or other structure in a thermal barrier that prevents corrosion and provides resistance to UV and weathering.

No more expensive exterior cladding to install over traditional fibrous insulation, no more wet or dirty insulation hanging from pipes in your facility.

Nansulate® easily sprays, rolls, or brushes on, and offers an effective barrier to heat loss or gain. It has performed effectively in the harsh deserts of the Middle East, the salty marine environment of the Atlantic coastline, the frigid conditions of Alaska, and all places in between.
