Program to discover materials suitable for service under hostile conditions obtaining in equipment for the gasification of coal and other solid fuels. Quarterly progress report, July 1-September 30, 1979
This report describes the progress on a program under the direction of The Metal Properties Council, Inc., designed to screen materials for use in such plants with respect to the various unique corrosive environments obtaining therein; and, finally, to provide useful corrosion data as well as reliable information on other properties needed for the design, construction and operation of such plants. This program is sponsored by the US Department of Energy and the Gas Research Institute. A summary of achievements in this quarter follows: High-temperature corrosion test runs were continued. Run 54 completed 4000 hr of expousre, and Run 55 completed over 3000 hr of exposure during the period. Metallographic analyses of specimens from Run 55 after 3000 hr exposure were completed. Interpretive analysis of test specimens from the current and earlier 10,000 hr tests was continued. Metals and refractories were exposed in the HYGAS pilot plant. Aqueous corrosion tests 335 and 336 (150 hr) and 1000 hr tests 905, 906, 907, and 908 were completed in the modified HYGAS environment. Tests 910 (1000 hr) and 909 (500 hr) were initiated. Interpretive analysis of coupons was continued. Erosion/corrosion test runs at atmospheric and high pressure were completed. All gravimetric and micrometric data were obtained and metallographic examination was initiated. The testing program at Southwest Research Institute is proceeding on funds supplied by GRI. Some stress rupture test results are reported at this time. (LTN)
