Wastewater Management
Australia's wastewater infrastructure faces significant challenges from Microbiologically Induced Corrosion (MIC), leading to the degradation of concrete structures. MACT specializes in providing advanced, durable lining solutions specifically designed to protect and rehabilitate critical assets like sewers, manholes, and treatment plants against aggressive chemical and biological attack.
Corrosion Protection & Rehabilitation
Our CorroGuard range offers long-term protection against biogenic sulfuric acid and abrasion:
- CAC Mortars/Shotcretes: MACT CorroGuard-CAC utilizes high-purity Calcium Aluminate Cement to provide exceptional resistance to severe MIC (pH 1-4) and high abrasion. It's a proven, robust solution for lining and structural rehabilitation, suitable for various application methods including spray and spinning.
- Hybrid Protective Liners: MACT CorroGuard-Hybrid represents the next generation, combining CAC with advanced polymer/geopolymer technology. This results in superior adhesion (even on damp surfaces), enhanced flexibility, multi-level MIC resistance (targeting bacteria and fungi), rapid self-curing, and thin-layer application capabilities. It's also a silica-free formulation for improved worker safety.
Meeting Industry Standards
MACT products are formulated to meet or exceed the stringent requirements of Australian wastewater authorities and standards, including WSA 160 and relevant Sydney Water specifications, ensuring reliable performance and compliance.
