Introduction

The moment a new plant is completed, maintenance of the plant and equipment begins.  Proper maintenance and inspection of all equipment and systems will ensure that the plant operates problem free.  Downtime in a sulphuric acid plant can be quite costly if it stops production of metals in a smelter complex or stops production of electric power in a sulphur burning plant with cogeneration.

The related web pages provides guidelines for maintenance and inspection.  The manufacturer's guidelines and recommendations for maintenance and inspection of equipment should be followed at all times.
