Halogen contaminants, particularly chlorine and fluorine, cause accelerated corrosion in such high-temperature systems as waste incinerators and waste heat recuperators on metallurgical furnaces. The mechanisms by which these phenomena occur are reviewed and discussed with the goal of identifying appropriate corrosion control strategies for materials that operate in these environments.
