Corrosion is a major service life limiting mechanism for both pressurized water reactors (PWRs) and boiling water reactors (BWRs). While most of the corrosion research emphasis in the nuclear corrosion community has been focused on environmentally-assisted cracking (EAC) of austenitic stainless steels and nickel-base alloys and weld metals in particular stress corrosion cracking (SCC) there are other corrosion phenomena that seriously affect plant life extension that cannot be ignored. This paper will discuss three other important corrosion areas i.e. general corrosion of the light water reactor (LWR) containments flow-accelerated corrosion of carbon steel piping systems and the corrosion of buried piping.
