Power Generation
Hydro · Thermal · Nuclear
From minimizing head loss in hydro penstocks to corrosion-free cooling in thermal plants and 50+ year nuclear safety — FRP plays critical roles in power generation.
Selecting a non-metallic piping system for this sector begins with the service envelope rather than a product name. Engineers should define the transported fluid, impurities, pressure and temperature cycles, external loads, installation environment, design life, joining method, and consequences of failure. Those conditions determine the resin system, reinforcement architecture, liner, qualification standards, and inspection stages. LEISA converts the resulting requirements into an inspection and test plan covering material identity, dimensions, short- and long-term mechanical performance, chemical compatibility, joint integrity, manufacturing records, and traceable acceptance evidence.
Hydro Power
Penstock head loss directly impacts generation efficiency. GRE smooth bore plus total corrosion resistance equals minimal head loss over full service life. Diameters 80–4000mm.
Thermal Power
From boiler feedwater to large-bore cooling — thermal plants use extensive piping. FRP replaces carbon steel plant-wide with corrosion resistance and low maintenance.
Nuclear Power
Non-metallic composites are highly corrosion-resistant in cooling and waste management. Suitable for high-pressure, high-temperature environments with 50+ year reliable operation.
