Some common corrosion mechanisms leading to boiler tube failure
Conference
·
OSTI ID:379701
Corrosion mechanisms remain a major cause of tube failures in operating boiler units. Conditions resulting in caustic corrosion, acid corrosion, chelant corrosion and sulfate induced high temperature external corrosion of boiler tribes are reviewed. Three case histories are presented illustrating the impact of the conditions discussed on boiler tube failures.
