Cathodic Corrosion Protection of earthburried Pipelines

Coatings and Cathodic Protection for Underground Pipelines - What a Corrosion Engineer Should Know

Coatings control corrosion by providing a barrier against oxygen and water. Although coatings are extremely effective, all organic coatings are semi-permeable to O2 and water. The water permeability coefficient of fusion bonded epoxies, one of the best coating systems, is approximately 10 gms/mil/24 hours, but minimum concentration of oxygen and water that can start the corrosion process is 10 ...

An Electrochemical Measurement for Evaluating the Cathodic Disbondment of Buried Pipeline Coatings under Cathodic Protection

Steel pipelines are susceptible to corrosion by the action of corrosive substance in the environment and one of the most common failure modes in buried pipeline coatingis cathodic disbondment. Consequently, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) was used to assess the effect of three important parameters, the thickness of coating, the artificial defect ...

CATHODIC PROTECTION OF STEEL REINFORCED CONCRETE BY CONDUCTIVE EPOXY PAINTS IN MARINE ENVIRONMENTS

Anodes are critical component of cathodic protection systems. As part of this effort, three different anodes were tested in a cathodic protection system that was designed and constructed to prevent further corrosion of reinforced concrete. This anodic system includes an electrically conductive coating composition applied in fluid form over an outer surface of the concrete mix. The composition f...

Optimization of Cathodic Protection on Offshore Structures

Marine structures are one of the most important and susceptible facilities in Iran due to corrosion. The two methods of Cathodic Protection, namely, the cathodic protection with sacrificial anodes and cathodic protection using impressed current, are widely used for corrosion protection. According to the former, sacrificial anodes are installed at several points in the structure. Position of the...
