Corrosion and Cathodic Protection in Underground Piping Systems

THE GALVANIC CELL The major corrosion concern in the water works industry is “galvanic” corrosion. Galvanic corrosion takes place due to current flow in a “galvanic cell” which is defined as (1) two dissimilar metals, an anode and a cathode, (2) in electrical contact with each other and (3) a common electrolyte. A galvanic cell is produced when the pipeline components come in contact with the s...

“Design and Optimisation of Cathodic Protection Systems Using Computer Simulation”

The design of cathodic protection systems normally relies on a combination of experience, experimental data and heuristics. However, problems and failures of CP systems not only has an economic cost, it can also present a threat to life and the environment. This paper will describe the application of a software system designed to simulate the performance of cathodic protection systems and predi...
