Specialized UPVC piping system delivers corrosion resistance and scale prevention in one of the world’s most challenging saline environments.
In 2023, the Yandang brand was selected to provide critical corrosion-resistant piping for a major lithium extraction project operated by Qinghai Salt Lake Industry, a national leader in salt lake resource development. This project marks Yandang’s strategic entry into the high-growth new energy supply chain.
The Challenge
Salt lake lithium extraction presents uniquely harsh conditions: extremely high salinity, mineralization, and aggressive corrosivity. Standard pipes suffer from rapid degradation, salt scaling (blockages), and structural failure. The project demanded a solution that could ensure uninterrupted flow and long-term stability in this chemically aggressive environment.
Yandang Solution
To meet these extreme demands, Yandang deployed its Special UPVC Corrosion-Resistant Pipes, engineered specifically for saline environments:
• Superior Brine Resistance — Withstanding constant exposure to high-salt, high-mineralization fluids.
• Scale-Resistant Inner Wall — Smooth surface prevents salt crystallization buildup, reducing maintenance.
• Chemical Stability — Ensuring structural integrity throughout the water transport and brine processing stages.
Results & Impact
Since commissioning, the Yandang piping system has demonstrated exceptional adaptability and stable operation, fully meeting the rigorous standards of salt lake lithium extraction. By solving the critical "last mile" challenge of fluid transport, Yandang is actively contributing to the green, efficient, and high-quality development of the new energy industry.
