UPCOMING AND EXISTING SYSTEM IN CATHODIC PROTECTION OF PIPELINES

Cathodic Corrosion Protection of earthburried Pipelines

Energy Management Strategy of Stand-alone Photovoltaic System in Cathodic Protection Pipeline

‎ In this paper, the stand-alone photovoltaic system for cathodic protection of underground pipelines is presented. The proposed system offers continuous and automatic adjustment of the applied voltage so that the buried pipelines receive the exact current. A modified perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is used to improve dynamic and steady state performa...

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 ...

Optimization of the cathodic protection system of military ships with respect to the double constraint: cathodic protection and electromagnetic silencing

In ships, materials of different electrochemical potentials the steel of the hull and the bronze of the propellers coexist. Once bathed in the sea water and electrically connected by the internal structures, phenomena of corrosion induced by galvanic coupling appear. These phenomena create currents in the water around the ship and induce, in the conducting sea water, a static electric field cal...

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...
