A recent survey of magnesium sacrificial anode cathodic protection systems installed on Bahrain Petroleum Co. (BAPCO) pipelines in 1998 revealed that many of the anodes had failed prematurely and ...

An important aspect in the use of cathodic protection of reinforced concrete is the need for regular monitoring of performance and maintenance of the anode and electrical systems. This is to ensure ...

In 2014 Cathodic Anodes Australasia (CAA) purchased the benchtop optical emission spectrometer FOUNDRY-MASTER Xpert from Oxford Instruments. Here we examine their experience and what drove their ...

Cathodic protection is a proven corrosion control method for protection of underground and undersea metallic structures, such as oil and gas pipelines, cables, utility lines and structural foundations ...

Vessels that operate across the globe in waters of varying levels of salinity and temperature are susceptible to corrosion damage. For example, localized pitting can occur on steel or aluminium hull ...

Cathodic corrosion protection is a widely used technique for protecting steel-based infrastructure from corrosion. ETH researchers have now clarified the detailed mechanisms involved, thereby ...

Corrosion protection services mitigate environmental or chemical attack through the application or installation of coatings, liners, cathodic protection, sacrificial anodes and corrosion inhibitors.

Corrosion is a primary cause for in-service degradation of steel structures in T&D lines, sometimes assisted by mechanical and microbiological actions, depending on the nature of the service ...

Corrosion of steel structures in electric transmission, distribution, and substation applications has been around for many years, but it’s getting more attention as electric utilities become more ...
