Case Studies

Solving Complex Fabrication and Lining Challenges

These case studies show how Moon Fabricating Corporation approaches the projects that don't fit a standard tank drawing — from a targeted acid-tank repair that avoided a full vessel replacement to the fabrication of a complex, multi-chamber process vessel. Each one reflects the single-source approach that runs through every project we take on.

Acid-Recirculation Tank Repair for a Steel Producer

A large acid-recirculation tank serving a major steel producer developed localized lining damage near an internal heater. Moon Fabricating evaluated the vessel, identified the affected areas, documented the probable cause, and developed a targeted repair recommendation — allowing the customer to address the damage without unnecessarily replacing the entire vessel.

Complex Ion-Exchange Vessel Fabrication

This project required fabricating and preparing a complex ion-exchange vessel containing multiple internal chambers, manways, and process nozzles. The work called for careful coordination of steel fabrication, surface preparation, dimensional control, and rubber-lining requirements. Our team calculated the lining area, accounted for application waste and complex internal surfaces, and delivered a solution designed for long-term chemical and corrosion resistance.

Large Custom Shop-Built Tanks for Corrosive Chemical Service

Moon Fabricating has produced large custom shop-built tanks and process vessels — including horizontal tanks approximately 10 feet in diameter and vessels exceeding 30 feet in length — for corrosive chemical services involving hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid, caustic solutions, and other demanding process conditions. These projects commonly require certified welding procedures, qualified welders, detailed quality-control documentation, nondestructive examination, and specialized rubber linings or protective coating systems.
