An Induction Cavitation Cleaning and Profiling System for Metal Plate Surfaces Navy SBIR FY2009.1 Sol No.: Navy SBIR FY2009.1 Topic No.: N091-065 Topic Title: An Induction Cavitation Cleaning and Profiling System for Metal Plate Surfaces Proposal No.: N091-065-1825 Firm: Native American Technologies Company P.O. Box 39 Golden, Colorado 80402-0039 Contact: Jerry Jones Phone: (303) 279-7942 Web Site: www.natech-inc.com Abstract: Develop a new and innovative system for cleaning paint and other coatings from surfaces and producing the necessary profile for applying new coatings. The process will use induction heating to create bubbles and a pressure differential to collapse the bubbles causing cavitation to occur, resulting in surface cleaning and profiling. Benefits: Reduce cost, eliminate nearly all of the waste stream, provide improved removal and profile production on the metal surface, capable of use on Navy ships and platforms, as well as commercial structures such as petroleum storage, wind energy towers, and water towers.
