This paper describes three corrosion case histories caused by overconfidence and lack of thorough understanding of the corroding systems. The first case history is exchanger tube failure from excessive high temperature sulfidation caused by changes of operation condition, run length and cleaning interval. The second case is about presumably hydrogen induced cracking(HIC) and high temperature hydrogen attack(HTHA) during weld repair and heat treatment in wet sour service. Inappropriate mixing of process streams was the cause of failure discussed in the third case history.


Keywords : High Temperature Sulfidation, Vapor Phase Corrosion, Fouling, HIC, HTHA, Sulfuric Acid, Mixing Point

Under-deposit corrosion is a common mode of failure in boiler tubes. Mechanisms include phosphate attack, caustic gouging, hydrogen damage, and wall thinning due to metal loss. Many aspects of these mechanisms and their mitigation are well-understood, while certain specific details remain uncertain or subject to controversy.
