EIS investigation of CO2/H2S corrosion
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper covers one of the building blocks required to complete a mechanistic CO2 / H2S corrosion model: electrochemistry of carbon steel CO2 corrosion in the presence of traces of H2S (3-250 ppm in the gas phase). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and linear polarisation resistance were used to investigate the mechanism of CO2/H2S corrosion in a glass cell at room temperature, at atmospheric pressure, pH5, using a rotating cylinder electrode at 1000 rpm. Very thin sulphide film was formed on the steel electrode in all experiments with H2S. At low concentrations (<15 ppm) the sulphide films reduced the corrosion rate while at higher concentrations of H2S (up to 250 ppm) the trend was reversed and a mild increase of the corrosion rate was seen.

Use and Abuse of Eis in Studying the Mechanisms of Co2/h2s Corrosion of Mild Steel
Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) is a powerful transient technique which enables an insight into the corrosion process not easily obtained by other predominantly DC techniques. However the EIS technique presents a large challenge both from a theoretical as well as an experimental point of view. Collecting accurate EIS raw data is not easy as EIS is plagues with errors not seen by th...

متن کاملCorrosion in Multiphase Flow Containing Small Amounts of H2s
Experiments in a large-scale flow loop provide an example of a somewhat increased corrosion rate under multiphase flow conditions caused by a low concentration of H2S in a CO2 saturated environment. Under operating conditions that prevent scale formation, the addition of 3ppm H2S in the gas phase increased the corrosion rate of AISI C 1018 and API 5L X-65 carbon steels, while the addition of H2...
