To limit the impact of greenhouse gas emissions on climate change, the use of conventional hydrocarbons needs to be reduced significantly. The global demand for biofuels is thus expected to grow during the present decade. Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (HVO) is one of the predominant biofuels produced by converting lipidic feedstocks (vegetable oils, animal fats, waste cooking oils, …) through a conventional refinery hydrotreatment (HDT) process.
This study was conducted to determine the root cause of aggressive corrosion due to wet NH4Cl salt deposition in reactor effluent streams in hydroprocessing units. In addition corrosion resistance and behavior of carbon steel and alloys in high-concentration NH4Cl solutions were investigated.
In the literature, corrosion problems associated with crude oil are often categorized into several classes, based on the type of equipment and “distance” from a well. The upstream operations (drilling, pumping) transport crude oil mixed with significant amounts of water and gasses, midstream operations (transport and storage before refining) deals with much drier crude with most of the water and gasses removed and upstream corrosion problems are mostly caused by chemical composition of given specific fraction and high temperature. Corrosion problems in midstream operations are usually not as severe as during drilling and initial transport, however, this step is significantly longer.
The chemical and radioactive waste at the Hanford Site is currently stored in 131 single-shell tanks and 27 double-shell tanks (DSTs). The DSTs were built between 1968 and 1986, and each has a capacity of about 1 million gallons. Figure 1 is one typical design of the DSTs. Double shell means that each tank consists of a primary tank within a secondary tank. The primary and secondary tanks are also known as liners, and both are made from carbon steel.
Large underground, carbon steel tanks are used for interim storage of liquid radioactive waste. The current corrosion control program needs to be updated to account for the susceptibility to pitting corrosion of waste tanks due to the halide content of the secondary waste.
Top-of-the-line corrosion (TLC) of carbon steel (CS) pipelines can be encountered during the transportation of wet gas under stratified flow conditions where temperature differences between the internal and external environments results in condensation of saturated vapors and water-wetted surface on the upper portion of the inside pipeline surface causing corrosion issues.1 Initially at least, the condensed water phase can be particularly corrosive with a low pH caused by dissolved acid gases (such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide) as well as organic acids in an unbuffered thin water film. Like bottom-of-the-line corrosion, TLC can be dominated by either carbon dioxide or hydrogen sulfide corrosion mechanisms.
An experimental study of corrosion of carbon steel in the presence of H2S, CO2 and acetic acid has been carried out. H2S and CO2 partial pressures up to 10 bar each were applied, with temperatures of 25 and 90oC.
Pipelines are the most effective way to transport oil and natural gas, particularly for their bulk transmission over long distances. Corrosion in oil and gas pipelines occurs because of the presence of dissolved corrosive gases, such as CO2 and/or H2S, in reservoir derived brine, and contact between this brine and the steel surface. The oil phase by itself does not cause corrosion and can even inhibit corrosion.
In all nuclear power generating countries, high-activity, long-lived radioactive waste is an unavoidable by-product of the contribution of this energy to the global electricity generation. Disposal in deep, stable geological formations is, at present, the most promising option accepted at an international level for the long-term management of these wastes. Geological disposal relies on a combination of engineered (man-made) barriers and a natural barrier (the host rock), in order to prevent radionuclides and other contaminants ever reaching concentrations outside the container at which they could present an unacceptable risk for people and the environment.
