Keiser, J R

Severe corrosion has been encountered in fractionation columns at the SRC, H-Coal and Exxon Donor Solvent pilot plants. Studies of the problem included exposure of coupons in the columns, analyses of liquids collected at the pilot plants, and laboratory experiments. This work specifies alloys with adequate corrosion resistance for construction of fractionation columns, identifies the chlorine-bearing compounds and proposes chlorine transport and corrosion mechanisms.
