- 1. causes & effects of corrosion in refineries Student Name: •Mohammad Abdulqader Alfuraij Student Number •844407
- 2. Outline Background Causes of corrosion Effects of corrosion on industrial equipment How to avoid the negative effects of corrosion in refineries?
- 3. Background Definition of corrosion How corrosion depends on environment? More Corrosive Less Corrosive Moist air Dry air Hot water Cold water Polluted air Clean air Acids Bases (alkalis) Salt water (Sea) Freshwater (river) Inorganic materials Organics (Cleve, 2009) (Fontana, 1989)
- 4. Causes of Corrosion Interactions between: Two or more electrochemical surface • Between steel and zinc metal A metal surface and atmosphere • Corrosion on the piping in the industrial’s boilers Soil and metal surface • The corrosion which happens on the bottom of tanks and underground (Cleve, 2009) (Cleve, 2009) (Cleve, 2009)
- 5. Effects of corrosion on industrial equipment Corrosion cases leakage or Rupture Financial losses the USA lost $276 billion in 1998 (Rose, 2001) (Rose, 2001) (Rose, 2001)
- 6. How to avoid the negative effects of corrosion in refineries Selection of material By corrosion resistance (Arellano, 2013)
- 7. Conclusion Causes of corrosion Interaction between a metal and soil, atmosphere or another metal surface. Effects of corrosion on industrial equipment Financial losses leakage or explosion How to avoid the negative effects of corrosion in refineries? Selection of material
