Energy Composites Corporation (OTCBB:ENCC)
announced today that it has delivered and installed a large-bore,
vertically-wound fiber-reinforced plastic tank to a large North American
manufacturer of chlorine and caustic soda. This 30-foot diameter by
43-foot high tank is the first in a series of 16 tanks that ECC is
manufacturing and will deliver over the next several months in order to
enable the transformation of manufacturing at a significant chlor-alkali
plant to the environmentally-friendly membrane cell process. ECC
fabricated the oversized tank using a custom vertical winding apparatus
that was designed and manufactured by the Company for its own use at
less than 20% of the cost of a commercially-manufactured winder.
Sam Fairchild, ECC’s CEO, praised the creativity and innovative spirit
of the Company’s production staff, noting that “Our production team,
when confronted with the reality that delivery of a new, commercial
vertical winder would not happen in time to meet the client’s production
requirements, designed and built our own vertical winder at record pace.
Not only did the winder perform flawlessly, it produced tank segments
that we were able to assemble on the customer’s site without adjustment.
I have never seen such ‘zero-tolerance’ results before -- it is really
quite remarkable!”
Fairchild added that “This tank was our largest in-plant vessel to date,
and our new in-house winder gives us the capability to retool quickly in
order to deliver the rest of the oversized tanks required under this
contract in advance of deadlines. We also have our horizontal winders
working overtime in order to complete the smaller tanks on time and
within budget as well.”
Jamie Mancl, ECC’s President, noted, “This and other chlor-alkali tanks
are being made using Derakane 411 and Derakane 470 vinylesters. Our use
of the premium grade Derakane 411 is particularly important since the
material contains a BPO/DMA double veil corrosion barrier that will
increase, significantly, the service life of these tanks. Our corrosives
customers depend on us to innovate in this and similar ways across all
segments – tank design, material selection and manufacturing process --
in order to deliver lower costs, higher functionality and shorter
production cycles.”
Fairchild underscored that “This contract, and our performance to date
under it, is another example of how ECC is facilitating the clean-tech
revolution. By enabling one of our chlor-alkali customers to move
expeditiously to the membrane cell manufacturing paradigm, we are
contributing to reducing the generation of hazardous wastes such as
mercury or asbestos and reducing the amount of energy required to
manufacture chlorine. And, because of the quality of our tanks, we also
are helping to reduce, sharply, the risk that any of the remaining
byproducts will contaminate the environment.”
