Abstract: A trough including connected walls configured to hold a molten galvanization material within the trough. The trough further includes a first end comprising a first gate system. The trough further includes a second end, opposing the first end, comprising a second gate system. The trough further includes a roller connected, inside the trough, to opposing inside walls of the plurality of connected walls. The trough further includes a sump disposed within the trough. The trough further includes an inlet connected to the sump.

Abstract: A method including measuring, in a buss cable over a plurality of time periods, a voltage, a current, and a temperature. The method also includes determining, using the voltage, the current, and the temperature, a degree to which the buss cable has degraded. The method also includes returning the degree to which the buss cable has degraded.

Abstract: An emissions collection system that includes a containment system, the containment system including a plurality of walls and a roof structure that together form an internal chamber; wherein chamber inlets are formed in one wall of the plurality of walls; and wherein chamber outlets are formed in either another wall of the plurality of walls or the roof structure. A filter assembly includes a filter that collects emissions generated within the internal chamber; and a duct system that places the chamber outlets in fluid communication with the filter assembly; wherein the filter assembly is sized and configured to move air through the chamber inlets, the internal chamber, the chamber outlets, the duct system, and the filter to collect emissions generated within the internal chamber.

Abstract: A system and method of cladding a carbon steel piece with stainless steel according to which the carbon steel piece is cleaned, heated, coated with the stainless steel, and strengthened. In an exemplary embodiment, coating the carbon steel piece with the stainless steel includes melting the stainless steel, atomizing the melted stainless steel, and spraying the atomized stainless steel so that at least a portion of the atomized stainless steel is deposited on the carbon steel piece to thereby coat the carbon steel piece with the stainless steel.
