Field Guide for Managing Iron Sulfide within Pipelines or Processing Equipment

Product Number: 37642-pdf
ISBN: 978-1-57590-461-0
Author: Daniel E. Powell, Robert H. Winters, Mark A. Mercer
$190.00

The Field Guide for Managing Iron Sulfide (Black Powder) within Pipelines or Processing Equipment offers practical guidance for corrosion control and operations personnel in managing black powder within their pipeline systems or processing equipment.

This book was written for new corrosion control professionals and operations personnel, who are based at production facilities. It provides straightforward, practical guidance regarding what is “black powder,” and why it may be a concern, field tests to be conducted, follow-up laboratory test that could be ordered, and an approach for using maintenance pigging, coupled with chemical treatments, to remove accumulations of “black powder.” 

It begins with a discussion of what is black powder and identifies health and safety considerations associated with H2S and the presence of black powder, identifying why there may be a concern. 

The Field Guide presents field and laboratory tests typically used to identify the presence of iron sulfide, and then discusses maintenance pigging and/or chemical treatments for removing such particulates. Several case studies are also presented.

Standards and Best Practice for Surface Preparation and Coating Application of Concrete

Product Number: PB-C0M01-pdf
ISBN: 978-1-57590-472-6
Author: Edited by Jean Broge
$190.00

Concrete surface preparation differs from surface preparation of steel, mostly due to the inherent properties of concrete.

Concrete is a non-uniform mixture of porous, permeable materials (cement, sand, stone, additives, water) with low tensile strength and often numerous cracks and defects. It will vary in properties, including moisture content, from site to site and within any site due to the batched nature of its production and installation.

Ranging from the basics of corrosion in reinforced concrete to using forensic science to determine concrete coatings failure, in this Standards and Best Practice for Surface Preparation and Coating Application of Concrete reference book, students and  technicians learn problem solving via multiple case studies and technical artiles.

Advances in Measurements of Corrosion Manifestation in Oil and Gas Production

Product Number: 37643-pdf
ISBN: 978-1-57590-440-5
Author: Wayne F. Frenier, FNACE
$205.00

This book provides a comprehensive review of the currently used critical measurements of the corrosion potential of the environments in the oil and gas, pipeline, power generation and refinery industries.

Thousands of measurements are conducted daily by chemists, engineer and technicians in labs and at field locations worldwide.

The book describes the equipment required and the methods used, as well as the scientific principles that are the basis for the measurements, to insure they are effectively performed. Decisions on the condition of field equipment as well as the use of corrosion control chemical (inhibitors) are based on properly conducting the measurements and interpreting the results.

Coatings Failures: Analysis and Solutions--Linings

Product Number: 37686-PDF
ISBN: 978-1-57590-491-7
$55.00

This multi-author/expert book, Coatings Failures: Analysis and Solutions--Linings, features case studies covering the failure--and fixture--of linings in an assortment of applications. The authors emphasize that the interior linings of tanks and pipes--and even railcars--is just as important as exterior coatings.

The performance of the interior lining correlates with the proper choice and application of the correct coating system.

The methods of investigating the failure include laboratory analyses, studies focused on the environment of the failure, infrared spectroscopy, suggestions on the steps that any investigation needs to consider, etc.

Corrosion Management for a Sustainable Future

Product Number: 37645-pdf
ISBN: 978-1-57590-430-6
Author: Christopher Taylor, Andrea Sánchez Sours
$195.00

The editors of Corrosion Management for a Sustainable Future, working in DNV’s Strategic Research and Innovation group at the time, examined facets of the materials lifecycle to help identify strategies that could be undertaken to mitigate the exponential increase in materials extraction and consumption that have characterized the rise of the modern world.

From this activity, a ‘materials stewardship’ strategy was formed, composed of the elements of dematerialization (doing more with less), durability (corrosion and risk management), design for multiple lifecycles, and diversion of waste (recycling and industrial symbiosis).

AC Corrosion of Pipelines

Product Number: 37656-pdf
ISBN: 978-1-57590-464-1
Author: Y. Frank Cheng
$160.00

AC Corrosion of Pipelines covers the essential topics related to AC corrosion of pipelines, a problem affecting the safety and reliability of underground pipelines. In addition to the basic principles of AC interference induced by adjacent AC power lines and other sources, the book details the adverse effects of the interference on collocated pipelines, including corrosion and pitting corrosion, coating degradation, deviating of cathodic protection potentials, and the ineffectiveness of cathodic protection systems. Moreover, effective management measures to this problem are discussed. It also covers the DC interference and DC corrosion of the pipelines, as compared to the AC corrosion phenomenon. The book, the first of its kind, provides a complete and comprehensive understanding to the phenomenon from both the fundamentals and the author's research experiences.

The reader can learn and understand the basics associated with AC corrosion. Moreover, the book provides solutions and industry practice to mitigate, control, and manage AC corrosion of pipelines. The reader can thus learn the appropriate solutions to the problem. Finally, the book also includes DC corrosion of pipelines, in addition to AC corrosion, another essential problem to the buried pipelines with the increasing development of HVDC power lines. All of them contribute to improved knowledge base and recommended solutions for the actual problem threating the integrity and safety of pipelines.

Pipeline Coatings

Product Number: 37616-pdf
ISBN: 978-1-57590-443-6
Author: Y. Frank Cheng
$130.00

Pipeline Coatings provides the reader with a history of generic pipeline coating types, technical information about testing, application, and use. There is very practical information about selection and evaluation methods for each type of coating system to help those who design pipeline systems. There is also discussion of how coatings work with cathodic protection (CP), CP shielding by coatings, and other related issues with the various coating systems related to CP.
