Method for renovating the interior of a hollow structure
A method for renovating the interior of a hollow structure such as a sewerage pit (1) is described. The method provides an access opening (16) to the hollow structure (1); provides a plurality of material sheets (3) comprising reinforcing fibers and a curable resin composition through the access opening (16) and against a wall (11a, 11b) of the hollow structure (1); and provides an inflatable pressure means (4a, 4b) within the hollow structure (1). The pressure means (4a, 4b) are inflated against the wall (11a, 11b). A curing means (6) is then provided within the hollow structure (1) for curing the resin composition; and the resin composition is cured to harden the material sheets and provide a renovated interior of the hollow structure (1).
Subsea Composite Vessel
It is described cylindrical subsea vessel (1) for separation of a flow, the vessel (1) comprising first and second longitudinal ends (T,1″), wherein the subsea vessel (1) comprises: —a liner (2); —at least one fluid inlet (3) and one fluid outlet (4, 5) into and out of an inner volume (7) of the vessel (1); —at least one flange (8) connected in one of the longitudinal ends (1′, 1″), wherein the at least one flange (8) and the liner (2) form the inner volume of the subsea vessel (1), and wherein the at least one flange (8) comprises at least one through-going opening (4,5,6) forming the at least one fluid inlet (3,4) and/or fluid outlet (5); —a load bearing structure (9) arranged outside the liner (2) and the at least one flange (8), wherein the load bearing structure (9) is of a composite material. It is further described a method of manufacturing the subsea vessel.

WATER TANK WITH ANTIMICROBIAL INTERNAL LINER
One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a tank assembly that provides antimicrobial protection to inhibit microbial growth in the interior of the tank body. The tank assembly can comprise a body with a side wall and one or more end walls. An antimicrobial liner can be disposed in the interior of the tank body to cover interior surfaces of the side wall and end wall(s). The antimicrobial liner can comprise an effective amount of an antimicrobial agent to inhibit growth of microbes in the interior of the tank body. In this way, the operation life of the tank assembly may be improved, and problems associated with biofilm fouling may be mitigated.
