Standard Guide for Design, Fabrication, and Erection of Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic Chimney Liners with Coal-Fired Units
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
This guide provides information, requirements and recommendations for design professionals, fabricators, installers and end-users of FRP chimney liners. FRP is a cost-effective and appropriate material of construction for liners operating at moderate temperatures in a corrosive chemical environment.
This guide provides uniformity and consistency to the design, fabrication, and erection of fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) liners for concrete chimneys with coal-fired units. Other fossil fuels will require a thorough review of the operating and service conditions and the impact on material selection.
This guide is limited specifically to FRP liners within a supporting concrete shell and is not applicable to other FRP cylindrical structures.
SCOPE
1.1 This guide offers direction and guidance to the user concerning available techniques and methods for design, material selection, fabrication, erection, inspection, confirmatory testing, quality control and assurance.
1.2 These minimum guidelines, when properly used and implemented, can help ensure a safe and reliable structure for the industry.
1.3 This guide offers minimum requirements for the proper design of a FRP liner once the service conditions relative to thermal, chemical, and erosive environments are defined. Due to the variability in liner height, diameter, and the environment, each liner must be designed and detailed individually.
1.4 Selection of the necessary resins and reinforcements, composition of the laminate, and proper testing methods are offered.
1.5 Once the material is selected and the liner designed, procedures for proper fabrication of the liner are developed.
1.6 Field erection, sequence of construction, proper field-joint preparation, and alignment are reviewed.
1.7 Quality control and assurance procedures are developed for the design, fabrication, and erection phases. The quality-assurance program defines the proper authority and responsibility, control of design, material, fabrication and erection, inspection procedures, tolerances, and conformity to standards. The quality-control procedures provide the steps required to implement the quality-assurance program.
1.8 Appendix X1 includes research and development subjects to further support recommendations of this guide.

The design, fabrication, and erection of FRP liners involves disciplines which must address the
specific characteristics of the material. Areas that have been shown to be of importance include the
following:
(1) Flue-gascharacteristicssuchaschemicalcomposition,waterandaciddewpoints,operatingand
excursion temperature, velocity, etc.
(2) Plant operation as it relates to variations in the flue-gas characteristics.
(3) Material selection and laminate design.
(4) Quality control throughout the design, fabrication, and erection process to ensure the integrity
of the corrosion barrier and the structural laminate.
(5) Secondary bonding of attachments, appurtenances, and joints.
(6) Installation and handling.
(7) Inspections and Confirmation Testing.
Chimney components include an outer shell, one or more inner liners, breeching ductwork, and
miscellaneous platforms, elevators, ladders, and miscellaneous components. The shell provides
structural integrity to environmental forces such as wind, earthquake, ambient temperatures, and
supports the liner or liners. The liner or liners inside the shell protects the shell from the thermal,
chemical,andabrasiveenvironmentofthehotboilergases(generally120–560°F(49–293°C)).These
liners have been made of FRP, acid-resistant brick, carbon steel, stainless steel, high-alloy steel,
shotcrete-coated steel, and shotcrete-coated shells. The selection of the material type depends on the
chemical composition and temperature of the flue gas, liner height, diameter, and seismic zone.Also,
variations in flue-gas characteristics and durations of transient temperatures affect material selection

INTRODUCTION
Federal and state environmental regulations have imposed strict requirements to clean the gases
leaving a chimney.These regulations have resulted in taller chimneys (600–1000 ft (183–305 m)) and
lower gas temperatures (120–200°F (49–93°C)) due to the use of scrubbers. These regulations led to
the development of fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) chimney liners in the 1970’s.
Fiberglass-reinforced plastic liners have proven their capability to resist corrosion and carry loads
over long periods of time. Successful service has been demonstrated in the utility and general-process
industries for over 40 years. Appendix X4 is a partial listing of FRP-liner heights and diameters
currently in the generating industry.The taller FRPstructures and larger diameters (10–30 ft (3–9 m))
imposed new design, fabrication, and erection challenges.
Autility-industry survey of FRPliners was conducted in 1983 (4). This survey summarized the 19
FRP liners constructed in the power-utility industry; including Owner/A-E/Contractor, overall
configuration, fuel type, and specific operating experience.
