The purpose of this report is to communicate the effects of wildfires heat and combustion products on corrosion resistance, material properties, and mechanical integrity of power transmission infrastructure and to identify next steps to research, develop, and implement future asset integrity management actions for the power industry. The report addresses the following general topics.
A wildfire, bushfire, wildland fire or field fire is an unplanned, unwanted, and usually uncontrolled event in an area of combustible vegetation. Due to climate change, many locations in the United States and worldwide, such as Australia and even India, are subject to wildfires due to dry conditions during parts of the year.
Galvanized protective coatings have been used for structural steel to mitigate steel corrosion in atmospheric exposures and chloride-rich marine environments. The galvanizing process involves dipping steel elements free of surface mill scale in a molten zinc bath where the diffusion of zinc into the steel matrix allows for zinc-iron alloy layers of decreasing zinc concentrations by depth to form in the steel. Oher elements such as tin, antimony and aluminum may be added to the galvanizing bath to control reaction rates, surface appearance and corrosion behavior. Hot-dipped galvanizing provides corrosion protection by developing a barrier layer and in certain conditions provide beneficial galvanic coupling of the zinc-rich layers to the steel.
The corrosion processes in biogas power plants investigated. Influence of feeding materials. Long term exposition tests of two stainless steels and galvanized steel. Scanning electron microscopy and metallographic cross sections. Electrochemical measurements. Results. Safety.
Premature failures of coatings applied to galvanized mast arms is not an unfamiliar problem. The properties of galvanizing that make it a difficult substrate to coat when new don’t simply disappear from beneath the original coating system.
The nuts of galvanized fasteners used on bridges are coated with a wax-based lubricant that contains a dye. Once installed, the fasteners are cleaned to remove the wax prior to painting. Cleaning is typically accomplished using a combination of solvents and hand tools, but questions are often raised as to how much residual dye on the surface is acceptable for painting.
