AC Corrosion of Piplelines
This book delves into the mechanisms of AC corrosion on pipelines, highlighting its causes from stray currents and effects on infrastructure. It offers technical analysis and strategies for detection, assessment, and mitigation to safeguard pipeline operations against this underrecognized threat.
About This Book
AC Corrosion of Pipelines addresses the phenomenon of corrosion induced by alternating current in buried pipelines. It examines how stray currents from nearby power sources can lead to accelerated material degradation.
The book covers fundamental principles of electrochemical reactions involved in AC-induced corrosion processes. It discusses the impact on pipeline coatings and cathodic protection systems.
Practical approaches to assessing and monitoring AC corrosion risks are outlined. Case studies and field data illustrate real-world applications and challenges in pipeline maintenance.
Engineers and researchers will find valuable guidance on designing effective mitigation measures to ensure long-term pipeline safety and reliability.
