Wonderful World of Solid Particle Erosion and Challenges in Erosion Testing and Modeling

Product Number: 51323-19003-SG

Author: Siamack A. Shirazi, Yeshwanthraj Rajkumar, Ronald Vieira, Thiana A. Sedrez, Soroor Karimi, Jun Zhang, Farzin Darihaki, Hadi Arabnejad

Publication Date: 2023

Solid particles entrained in fluids can impact pipelines and equipment causing wear and material removal. Particle impact velocities that are affected by the carrier fluids have the largest effect on the magnitude and distribution of solid particle erosion rates in addition to the mass of impacting particles or the particle rates. In addition to the interaction of particles with the carrier fluids, particles interaction with solid materials makes this process highly complex and produces effects that are interesting and yet important to predict for practical engineering applications.

Writing an Effective Scope of Work is Just Smart Business

Product Number: 51219-179-SG

Author: Russ Brown

Publication Date: 2019

$20.00

Understanding the key components of any project is critical if one is to ensure a successful outcome rather than a project that is riddled with needless delays, misunderstandings, and costly rework charges. An effective Scope of Work (SOW) is often the sole document that is relevant in preventing issues that can wreak havoc on a typical project.

Writing Effective Corrective Actions Workshop

Product Number: 51219-170-SG

Author: Cory Allen

Publication Date: 2018

$20.00

This paper will discuss a hands-on workshop, interactive session to train participants to write effective corrective actions as they relate to typical problems for an industrial coating contractor. This workshop should be particularly helpful to coating contractors who are QP certified by SSPC. QP1, QP3, and QS1 certified contractors are required to document corrective actions.

Wrought CuNi30Cr2 (CNC) a New Concept for a Corrosion Resistant Copper Alloy

Product Number: 51319-13070-SG

Author: Ivan Richardson

Publication Date: 2019

$20.00

For many decades corrosion resistant Copper Alloys have been utilized in sea water applications for their unique combination of properties anti-biofouling non-sparking resistance to cavitation corrosion excellent wear properties and low magnetic permeability.One disadvantage has been lack of mechanical strength and Copper Nickel Chromium (CuNi30Cr2) is a unique alloy developed to overcome this. It does not rely on a precipitation hardening mechanism for increasing the mechanical properties but “spinodal” decomposition which is a chemical strengthening mechanism. Additionally the alloy is single phase and hence it does not suffer from selective phase corrosion which has been problematic with some copper based alloys in marine salt water environments.This paper evaluates the wrought version of CuNi30Cr2 which can now be manufactured to Def Stan 02-886 and offers significant scope for design engineers with much higher mechanical properties increased toughness and increased internal integrity. It provides the findings of a four year corrosion program with comparisons against 26 other alloys involving a range of copper alloys Monel® Inconel® Super Duplex Titanium and Stainless Steels. General corrosion galvanic and crevice corrosion in a sea water environment were all examined as well as mechanical properties.

Yeah, Examining the Impact of Overprotection on AC Corrosion: A Case Study Investigation

Product Number: 51324-20877-SG

Author: Ivano Magnifico

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

The risk of AC corrosion has always been linked in particular to the parallelisms of underground pipelines with HVAC lines, especially in those geographical areas where the morphology of the territory creates obligatory so-called "technological corridors", and therefore forces the coexistence of different services over long distances. More recently, the greater diffusion of AC-powered railway networks has further increased the AC interfering sources, while the use of more performing coatings on underground pipelines has on the one hand increased their insulation from the surrounding soil, and on the other has increased the risk of overprotection compared to old, less performing, or more degraded coatings. This paper, starting from a real case found in a gas distribution network in a European big city, will present the normative criteria to be used to keep the AC corrosion risk under control, and will highlight how precisely the simultaneous presence of cathodic overprotection may result in an autocatalytic cycle leading to accelerated AC corrosion, in which monitoring becomes essential in order to be able to carry out on time the appropriate corrective actions.

Zero VOC Water Based Epoxy Topcoat - Performance Equivalent to Solvent Based and High VOC Water Based Epoxies

Product Number: 41208-463-SG

Author: Wendy Zhao

Publication Date: 2008

$20.00

A newly developed two-component zero VOC water based epoxy topcoat, based on a solid epoxy resin dispersion cured with modified amine, offers comparable performance to solvent based and high VOC water based epoxies and exhibits good corrosion and chemical resistance. The performance properties of the new innovative zero VOC water based epoxy topcoat are reviewed and compared to solvent based and high VOC water based epoxies used in industrial maintenance applications.

Zinc Sulfide Solubility Modeling In Aqueous Solution At High Temperature And High Pressure

Product Number: 51322-17763-SG

The increasing need for fossil fuels has resulted in more aggressive drilling and exploitation in oil and gas production industry. As new explorations at more extreme conditions (i.e. high temperature and high pressure) become more frequent, new challenges arise in terms of drilling equipment, operation conditions and safe production. Among those challenges, the mineral scale deposition, as one of the serious problems both for the surface and subsurface oilfields, can cause pipelines plugging, equipment failure and decrease in production efficiency, even emergency shutdown.
