    14. “You’re about to watch magic.” Controlling inflow & infiltration (Feat. Jeremy Sukola and David Dingler)

    Inflow & infiltration (I&I) is a serious challenge to water and wastewater infrastructure owners, who usually don’t know they have an I&I problem until it’s too late. What is I&I? What does it cost? How do you stop it? How does controlling I&I fit into a holistic asset management and maintenance program? Jeremy Sukola and David Dingler of Prime Resins, a division of Carboline, explain. Spoiler: magic in a cup. Want to schedule a demo? Contact Prime Resins here, or Carboline here. 0:00 – Introduction 03:23 – Defining I&I 05:49 – It doesn’t only afflict aging infrastructure 08:39 – Calculating the cost of I&I 12:12 – Proactive or reactive?

    12. Soluble Salts (Feat. Ken Rossy)

    Controlling soluble salts is one of the largest challenges faced during the surface preparation portion of a coating project. Failure to remove soluble salts can drastically shorten a coating’s lifecycle. On this episode, Ken Rossy, President of HoldTight, joins us to discuss the differences between atmospheric and immersion services, the debate on allowable soluble salt limits, and how additives can help. All of this and more coming up next on The Red Bucket. 0:00 - Intro 1:36 - Introduction to Kon Rossy 3:17 - Introduction to HoldTight Solutions 6:34 - Why are Salts Detrimental to Steel? 8:38 - “Invisible” Contaminants and How to Find Them 13:18 - Cleanliness in Immersion and Atmospheric Service 19:51 - The Debate on the Amount of Allowable Soluble Salts 25:59 - Using Additives to Remove Salts and Hold Cleanliness 35:46 - "The Four Questions" [Non-Technical] 39:54 - "Tech Tips" 40:21 - Closing Remarks
