Purging with nitrogen at our plant, I wonder how beneficial it would be considering it would have already frozen when it reaches from Tennessee to Michigan weather. Purging with nitrogen at Tennessee would help but the railcars are not air-tight sealed.
I found out about raiclars, we can keep them for 90 days without demurrage charges. I want to thank you all for your response.
Nitrogen purging, I looked into it, I have'nt asked my supplier yet but looks like it involves additional safety permits,licences, etc for transporting. Though we would...
When the material is loaded to railcars in Tennesse, its warm , maybe room temperature air. When it travels to Michigan the weather changes, hence the dew point temperature decreases and condensation takes place. This condensation causes freezing. It's not exactly plastic sticking together but...
I can ask our supplier about insulated cars, but I guess since its our problem they would not do much about it at their end.
The main reason we went from getting material in bulk truck to railcars is the cost of resin. Its cheaper if we get it in railcars. I think they allow us to keep the...
We will soon be getting Keldax(type of filled EVA) in railcars. The problem is they will be moving from the warm climate in Tennessee upto the cold winter months in Michigan.The material also absorbs some moisture. We are planning to use the railcar as our storage.We plan to empty one railcar in...
