Protecting Pipelines from Corrosion Internal pipeline corrosion poses a significant challenge to the energy industry. It can be caused by the presence of water, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and other corrosive substances. Without preventative measures, pipeline corrosion can lead to...
Flue Gas Dew Point Corrosion Mitigation: Alloy Upgrading Techniques
Flue Gas Dew Point Corrosion: Mechanism and Implications Flue gas dew point corrosion is a complex electrochemical process that occurs when flue gases cool below their acid dew point temperature. This phenomenon is particularly prevalent in industrial systems involving combustion...
Mitigating Metal Dusting Corrosion in Ammonia and Methanol Reformers
Introduction to Metal Dusting Metal dusting corrosion is a critical issue that particularly affects secondary reformer nozzles, heat exchangers, and autothermal reforming (ATR) units within ammonia and methanol reforming processes. This form of high-temperature corrosion leads to the degradation of...
Preventing KOH Corrosion: Enhancing Durability with IGS HVTS
Introduction: KOH Corrosion Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is a versatile and widely-used chemical compound. From the production of soaps and detergents to the manufacturing of batteries and the treatment of industrial waste, KOH finds applications across numerous sectors. However, despite...
Combating Flow Accelerated Corrosion in Power Plants with IGS HVTS Technology
Flow Accelerated Corrosion Mechanism Introduction Flow-accelerated corrosion (FAC) is critical in nuclear power plants, particularly within Moisture Separator Reheater (MSR) components. MSR internals, including moisture separator drains and reheater tubes, are constantly exposed to high-velocity, high-temperature steam laden with moisture...
