Measuring Chemical Composition Of Pipeline Steel Using Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) Technology

Measuring Pipeline Chemical Composition Using Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) Technology
Available for download

LIBS is a type of optical emission spectroscopy used to measure elemental concentrations in a material.  LIBS operates by using a pulsed, focused laser that is fired at a sample with sufficient pulse energy as to create a plasma around the area struck. Bound atomic electrons are stripped from the atoms comprising the material.  As the plasma cools, atoms recombine with electrons and in the process emit light in the UV, optical and IR regimes.

Recent PHMSA safety rules governing the operation of gas pipelines require operators to ensure material records are 100% traceable, verifiable, and complete (TVC) within the guidelines for the Pipeline Material Verification process defined under 192.607. Testing for chemical composition is a critical input where records are incomplete and while performing grade estimations for MAOP reconfirmation.   

Emerging non-destructive technology using portable handheld laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for in-situ analyses offers one NDE methodology for assessing pipeline steel composition. The LIBS technology will be presented including performance for carbon, carbon equivalency in addition to the concentrations of microalloying elements that may be present in the sample.

Copper alloys such as copper nickel (CuNi) and Admiralty Brass (CuZn) are often successful material selections for seawater coolers. The copper alloys successes in these highly corrosive environments can be attributes to the ability of copper to form a protective scale, thus stopping corrosion of the material. On copper alloys in seawater, the protective scale formed comprises a mix of cuprous oxide (Cu2O), copper oxide (CuO) and copper hydroxy chlorides.

Many industrial processes contain H2, CO, CO2, and H2O gas mixtures, such as syngas production and processing in hydrogen, ammonia, and methanol plants. These process environments have high carbon activity, i.e. ac > 1, and low oxygen partial pressure at their elevated operating temperatures, such as in the temperature range of 400-800 °C (752-1472 °F). The high carbon activity could result in a catastrophic material degradation, i.e. metal dusting. The resulting corrosion products consist of carbon or graphite and metal particles, along with possible carbides and oxides, and cause material disintegration.

Cemented carbides have been widely used to make parts for wear applications due to the excellent combination of hardness and toughness. Cemented carbides represent a group of composite materials containing hard metal carbides, such as tungsten carbide (WC), bonded by ductile metallic binder agents, such as cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), or iron (Fe).1 By varying WC grain size, weight fraction of metallic binder, and processing parameters, a wider range of microstructure and mechanical properties can be achieved.
