This NACE best-seller is based on the authors' course, The Corrosion & Protection of Metals. This edition of this classic text is based on notes used by the authors for more than a decade in their course, The Corrosion and Protection of Metals. The authors emphasize the engineering aspects of corrosion and its control in ways that will be helpful to the practicing engineer. Topics covered include corrosion economics, detecting and monitoring corrosion, regulations, specifications, safety, and the selection and use of materials, with special emphasis on stainless steels. 1995 NACE E-BOOK

A successful business relies upon the ability to accumulate wealth. That wealth can come in many forms: increased value of business, real estate, personal possessions, investments, or even other businesses. Have you thought about the circumstances that could take away some or all of what you have worked to accumulate?
Sulfur and acidic impurities in crude oils pose serious hot oil corrosion problems in crude distillation units (CDU) and associated vacuum distillation units (VDU), especially with the increase in processing of lowquality, opportunity crudes. In the range of 200-400˚C, reactive sulfur compounds cause sulfidation corrosion of ferritic carbon and chrome steels in CDU, VDU, and front ends of downstream units operating at hot oil temperatures. Over the same temperature range, naturally occurring carboxylic acids in crudes can be so aggressive that higher alloy, austenitic stainless steels containing >2.5% Mo are required for processing high acid oils.
The choice of corrosion control measures must consider economic factors as well as technical aspects. Methods here presented are tools of engineering and management decision making. Historical Document 1972
