Corrosive Waste Drainage Systems and Plenum Considerations

Description:

This presentation will cover a variety of materials of construction that have been used in the plenum space, speaking on the advantages and limitations of each. Discussion will be held around the chemical makeup of the materials and where certain MOCs may be better suited than others, with a focus on the only plenum rated thermoplastic piping, PVDF. We will then finish with discussing the ASTM E84 standard, testing methods, and why it is such an important standard in the plenum waste drainage space.
