The new tendency of titanium pipe application - desalination

In recent years, with the development of industry and the  the extendibility of the city, the growing shortage of water resources has become a major outstanding issues to restrict the development of human society, in addition to advocating water conservation, recycling waste water purification, seawater desalination is one of the best way to solve the problem of water shortage. Up to now, desalination technology in more than 120 countries and territories around the world have been using, according to the relevant agency statistics: There are now more than 13,000 global desalination plants, can desalt 35 million tons seawater one day, and rising at annual more than 10 percent to growth.

Now commonly used in the desalination process are: reverse osmosis (filtration), solar method, low-temperature multi-effect distillation, multi-stage flash, electrodialysis, gas pressure distillation, evaporation dew point, hydropower generation, thermal film generation method, at the same time there is a non-pressurized penetration assay and other new technologies. In these methods, the multi-stage flash method, the low-temperature multi-effect distillation and reverse osmosis is the mainstream approach.The low-temperature multi-effect distillation and reverse osmosis are two methods mainly used in our country, it is learned that the next few years, there will be a number of desalination projects launched.

After 40 years of research, China's desalination technology has matured, large-scale desalination applications already have a cost advantage, lower cost compared with the diversion. Meanwhile, the state also introduced a series of encourage policies,the scale desalination in next ten years will be five times than now.

In addition, titanium pipe desalination equipment will gradually replace the original copper alloy pipe,titanium pipe has the following advantages:

1 Compared with copper alloy pipe, titanium pipe wall thickness is thinner, less the amount of pipe .

2 The thermal conductivity of titanium is 17W / (m · k), low thermal conductivity, good thermal conductivity.

3 Higher cost-effective to use of titanium pipes.Due to the low density of titanium, when the wall thickness and length are the same,the weight of titanium pipe is only 50% of the copper alloy pipe; when the titanium pipe wall thickness is 50% of copper alloy pipe, the weight of same heat transfer area is only 1/4 of copper alloy pipe.So titanium pipe is competitive in price.

4 Titanium pipes lifetime is longer. Because seawater is often mixed with sand, sea creatures, they are attached in the heat transfer pipe and the pipe end, will erode copper alloy tube, copper alloy will be subject to corrosion in seawater Br-. The titanium pipe will not appear on this problem, especially in order to kill bacteria in seawater, when forced to inject oxygen,need to use good corrosion resistance of titanium pipes.

So titanium pipe used for water desalination field is a new trend of the future!

The Application of Titanium Alloy in Biomedical

Biomedical materials is an important branch of materials science, it's intended to diagnose, treat or replace human tissue, organs or enhance its function, with high-tech and high economic value of the new carrier materials, materials science and technology is being developed in a new areas. Biomaterials for human exploration of the mysteries of life, the protection of human health and longevity make greater contributions.

Nearly 10 years, biomedical materials and products market growth has remained at around 20% -25%, the next 10 to 15 years, including biomedical materials, including the medical device industry will reach market size pharmaceutical products become 21 pillar industries century world economy.

In the biomedical metallic materials, titanium and its alloys with excellent overall performance, as artificial joints (hip, knee, shoulder, ankle, elbow, wrist, knuckles, etc.), bone trauma products (hip nails, plates, nails ankle ), the material of choice in the medical orthopedic spinal fixation system of plant products, dental implants, dentures, dental orthopedic silk, artificial heart valves, interventional cardiovascular stents.

There is no better than titanium CN metal material for clinical use. Developed and world-renowned implants supplier are attaches great importance to titanium research work, launched a series of new medical titanium materials, including titanium biomimetic materials with biological activity on the surface of titanium alloy material aspects of medical treatment patents have also done a lot of design and development, medical titanium alloy material gives a better biological activity to meet the physiological needs of the body, so as to achieve the purpose of the patient a speedy recovery.

Mechanical Property and Processing Property of Titanium Bar

Titanium mechanical property

Titanium has good low temperature ductility, especially low levels of interstitial elements of α-type alloys suitable for use at low temperatures, such as a container for cryogenic rocket engine or on a manned spacecraft.

   Fatigue performance characteristics similar to steel, with obvious physical fatigue limit, repeated bending fatigue limit for titanium is 0.6 ~ 0.8Rm, fatigue properties of the titanium metal surface condition and the stress concentration factor is sensitive.

  Heat resistance of titanium is lower than nickel and iron more information on how it is different can be found at Titanium CN. The poor wear resistance of titanium can be impoved by nitriding, carbon, boron.

Titanium processing property

Titanium can be forged, rolling, extrusion, stamping, and other various processing pressures; steel heating devices can be used for titanium heating. furnace atmosphere required to maintain a neutral or weakly oxidizing atmosphere, heat will not allow the use of hydrogen.
The yield ratio of titanium (Rel / Rm) is 0.70 to 0.95, large deformation resistance; relatively low modulus of elasticity, that's why it is difficult for titanium in the molding process.
Titanium has good weldability, weld strength, ductility and corrosion resistance similar to the base material. To prevent contamination of welding, to adopt tungsten argon arc welding.
Titanium cut machining is more difficult. The main reason is titanium friction coefficient, poor thermal conductivity, the heat focused on the tip, so that the tip quickly soften; while the chemical activity of titanium high temperature easy to adhere to the tool, causing adhesive wear. When cutting, the correct selection of tool material should maintain Fengrui tool, and using good cooling.

Titanium is non-magnetic and non-toxic metal

Titanium is non-magnetic metal, in a large magnetic field will not be magnetized. This feature allows titanium used in magnetic devices, titanium vessels shell can be avoid explosion of magnetic mine. Titanium is non-toxic, and has a good compatibility with human tissue and blood, they were adopted by the medical profession, for artificial joints, pacemakers and other devices. Also titanium equipment is also ideal for the pharmaceutical industry equipme

Titanium is a kind of active metal, titanium is very light, titanium is corrosion resistant, when heated to above 6001 c, it is easy to be combined with the oxygen in the air, so the titanium is generally not recommended in higher than the temperature under the condition of use for a long time.Titanium can do the plane, free to fly in the blue sky, is my dream.I hope one day I can open a belong to my own plane.

Titanium in Chemical Industry Craft Beer Brewing

In 45 minutes with a young John at the end of this month, a colleague beer entrepreneurs checks his mobile phone, bent down, and tell him, "we just made a 12000USD."

Then, the young is checking his phone number, several times a day. Since 28 years launched financing activities in the Kickstarter May 1st called beer "BeerTitanium," Ottawa resident said he received one thousand e-mails, phone and voice mail messages a day, people from all over the world about the product, eight months before the sale.

Since the campaign began, the media morning America to notify the Ottwaaw County start-ups.

Each Kickstarter rule, his start-up, Titanium beer, have a month to $220000 or less funds target. The weekend of June 14th, it surpassed its goal. As of June 10th, Titanium beer has raised more than $450000.

The money will be used to develop, manufacture and sale of. Those commitments first version makes product version, the market in March next year, T-shirts and other allowances, according to their level of investment. More than 1000 investors have pledged more than 15000USD from a few dollars to.

Titanium beer, has been in development for two years, have a patent application of titanium and nylon bags, from beer taps and a litre of beer filling, or the equivalent of 24 cups of beer.
