Title: Solutions to corrosion problems of FGD systems providing functional reliability and cost effectiveness

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6887824

Extensive research programs at various utilities and institutions to find better materials of construction led to higher alloys up the ladder of Ni-Cr-Mo family and new non-metallic coatings. One result of this was the development of the ''wallpaper concept solution'' of lining with thin sheets of highly corrosion-resistant alloy of the Ni-Cr-Mo family which over the last six years has provided maintenance free performance in a very cost effective manner. This paper will describe the simplicity of the wallpaper concept solution, economics as compared to other alternatives, and case histories where maintenance free service is being provided to many utilities in the critical areas of their FGD systems.
