MATCOR’s SuperVent is a single-piece deep anode vent pipe system with fabric-covered perforations providing five times more open surface area than standard vent pipe to prevent blockage. Supplied coiled in one continuous piece, it requires no field assembly for any borehole depth.
Chlorine resistant HDPE vent pipe with perforations in the active anode area.
Porous fabric over the vented area: The fabric will not allow fine particles to pass, but allows water and gas to pass to the inside of the pipe. The fabric is marked with the designation SuperVent to allow for easy identification.
Bottom seal: The vent pipe must be sealed on the bottom to prevent coke from entering.
SuperVent should extend the total depth of the deep anode borehole plus a minimum of ten feet to extend above the top of the borehole. The additional pipe can be cut off after installation. SuperVent’s active area is the area with perforations that is covered with fabric. This active area should be the length of the coke backfill column plus ten feet to extend above the top of the coke column for the best venting. Given these measurements, MATCOR will manufacture the vent system in one piece and ship it coiled and ready for installation.
SuperVent is easy to install. Simply uncoil the vent system and attach it to the anodes or anode system. A bottom weight helps to lower the system. If using mixed metal oxide tubes or individual anodes, use MATCOR centralizers to hold and center the anodes in the borehole. The centralizers have provisions for attaching to the anodes and vent pipe. In addition to being ideal for MATCOR’s Durammo® and other deep anode systems, SuperVent is also the right choice for other impressed current anode installations where chlorine gas is anticipated. Simply install the deep anode venting system next to the anodes and vent to the surface.
