Advanced
Secondary Containment Poly-X Systems by All Tech
Industries
Background
Samson Recourses, Inc. a large, privately held exploration and
production company headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma
recruited All Tech Industries to develop a solution to improving
their outdated dated method of secondary containment.
Problem
Comply with the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) order, OPA–2004–0003; FRL–7800–2 RIN
2050–AC62,
Oil Pollution Prevention and Response;
Non-Transportation-Related Onshore and Offshore
Facilities.
Solution/Results
All Tech Industries developed
a Spill Prevention
Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) Solution
for
Samson Recourses, Inc.
All Tech Industries
provided the technology sealant solution necessary to ensure
the project complied with Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) order, OPA–2004–0003; FRL–7800–2 RIN
2050–AC62.
Every All Tech
Industries state-of-the-art spray applied Poly-X Containment
System provides long-term durability due to an
patented formula and application
process that creates a solution with extraordinary
toughness! Tested for strength and protection in
both the laboratory and in real-world conditions to
assure the highest level of durability, even under
the most extreme use (abuse). Because of this, we are
proud to offer a 20 year Limited Lifetime Warranty. Now that’s
serious protection!
Poly-X is a family of
sealants and coatings that are exceptionally tough
and flexible to resist thermal stresses to
compensate for substrate cracking or movement and
provide impact resistance. These membranes are
spray-applied plastic coatings that eliminate all
seams regardless of the size of liners, even in low
temperatures. These membranes are ideal for
protection of metal, steel, polyurethane foams and
concrete containment structures, or used for
geotextile applications, offering a UV stable and
chemical resistant membrane. The 100% solid, VOC
free and rapid cured products follow any contour and
provide a monolithic containment barrier. Where
colorfastness is critical, an alphatic topcoat is
recommended for U.V. stability to counter slight
color changes or superficial oxidation. Standard
colors can be achieved with factory added pigments
and dyes.
Poly-X elastomeric
linings provide excellent performance in immersion
service while being more versatile than conventional
sheet systems. These 100% solids abrasion resistant
membranes have an excellent adhesion and a low perm
rating that prevents degradation of the substrate
from chemicals or water.

Quick and professional
application by an approved installer network across
North America to assure you that your project is
completed correctly, safely and on time. Experience,
quality workmanship, integrity and financial
stability are our criteria for approving
applicators. Best atomization and quality results
are obtained using heated plural component high
pressure spray equipment incorporating a high
pressure impingement type mixing gun. Personnel
spraying series are advised to use an approved air
make-up unit. The Material Safety Data Sheet and the
Society of Plastic Industry Safety Standards must be
adhered to.
Sealant and coating
systems can be combined with an engineering fabric
for support and a 100 percent solids spray applied
sealant or coating containment system to form a
state-of-the-art flexible chemical resistant and
tough containment membrane. Installation of
these systems is fast and easy due to their rapid
cure time (30 seconds) and insensitivity to most
environmental conditions.
When choosing a secondary containment
system it must be
chosen based on its ability to withstand long term contact with
whatever the tanks hold, from unrefined oil, jet fuel, or acid. It must
have excellent puncture resistance, resistance to UV degradation,
and must hold up to thermal and/or chemical expansion and
contraction. As well as insuring compliance with the new
2005 amendments to the Spill
Prevention Control and Countermeasures regulations. When it’s necessary to rely on secondary containment, it becomes primary containment.
It’s worth repeating that, when it’s necessary to rely on
secondary containment, it becomes primary containment.
