Case Study: HDD CP Retrofit For Existing Critical Service Ethylene Above Ground Storage Tank.

Product Number: 51322-18035-SG

Author: Shailesh Javia, Venkat Sreenivas

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Corrosion has long been recognized as an extremely costly naturally occurring phenomenon that can be controlled through the proper application of corrosion prevention and control methods protecting public safety, extending the service life of assets and preventing damage to property and the environment. The landmark Cost of Corrosion Study published by the U.S. Federal Highway Administration estimated that corrosion costs were approximately 3.1% of the nation’s GDP. Within the study, several key sectors of the US economy were studied. This paper is focused on one of those areas – the corrosion risks associated with storage tanks that contain hazardous materials. The study determined that the annual direct cost of corrosion for above ground hazardous material storage tanks (ASTs) in the US was ~$4.5 billion.

Cathodic Protection -Based Solutions For Corrosion Prevention Of “Green Aluminum” Alloys

Product Number: 51322-17823-SG

Author: Marco Bandiera, Arianna Pavesi, Alessandro Mancini, Bozhena Tsyupa, Andrea Bonfanti, Massimiliano Bestetti, Federico Bertasi

Publication Date: 2022

In the recent years, the reduction of the environmental footprint of industrial processes is gaining momentum, targeting the carbon neutrality. This also involves Aluminum industry, in which the use of secondary (e.g. recycled) alloys is a possible solution in order to decrease the greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions. Indeed, raw materials produced starting from secondary Aluminum show GHG emission values up to one order of magnitude lower with respect to their primary equivalents.

Cathodic Protection Monitoring In Water And Wastewater Systems

Product Number: 51322-17655-SG

Author: Jamey Hilleary

Publication Date: 2022

In 2002 NACE International published a cost of corrosion study backed by the U. S. Federal Highway and Safety Administration estimating the annual cost of corrosion in the U. S. to be $276 billion. In the more detailed breakdown of these costs by industry/market segment the cost associated with the water and wastewater utilities segment in the “Utilities” category was estimated at $36 billion. The water and wastewater utilities segment represented the single largest cost segment in the study. The $36 billion estimate for this single segment of the Utilities category represented more cost than any of the other four categories: Transportation, Infrastructure, Government, and Manufacturing & Production.

Combination Of High Ph SCC And Near Neutral Ph SCC Models Using Bayesian Networks

Product Number: 51322-17851-SG

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Environmentally Assisted Cracking (EAC) of gas transmission lines constitute about 2.6% of the total number of significant incidents recorded in the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Administration (PHMSA) database [1]. For the hydrocarbon liquid pipelines, the EAC-related incidents constitute about 1%. Although Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) incidents are a relatively small percentage of significant incidents, it is important to predict the location and rate of growth of SCC because of the potential for catastrophic consequences from the growth of undetected cracks.
