Corrosion and Corrosion Control

Corrosion and Corrosion Control 
Publisher: Wiley-Interscience | Pages: 490 | 2008-03-21 | ISBN 0471732796 | PDF | 3 MB

The classic book on corrosion science and engineering-now in a valuable new edition

The ability to prevent failures by managing corrosion is one of the main global challengesof the twenty-first century. However, most practicing engineers and technologists have only a basic understanding of how they can actively participate in this urgent economic and environmental issue. Now, students and professionals can turn to this newly revised edition of the trusted Corrosion and Corrosion Control for coverage of the latest developments in the field, including advances in knowledge, new alloys for corrosion control, and industry developments in response to public demand.

This Fourth Edition presents an updated overview of the essential aspects of corrosion science and engineering that underpin the tools and technologies used for managing corrosion, enhancing reliability, and preventing failures. Although the basic organization of the book remains unchanged from the previous edition, this new update includes:

An introduction to new topics, including the element of risk management in corrosion engineering and new advanced alloys for controlling corrosion

Expanded discussions on electrochemical polarization, predicting corrosion using thermodynamics, steel reinforcements in concrete, and applications of corrosion control technologies in automotive, nuclear, and other industries

A stronger emphasis on environmental concerns and regulations in the context of their impact on corrosion engineering


Electrochemistry and Corrosion Science

Electrochemistry and Corrosion Science  by Nestor Perez
Publisher: Springer; 1 edition (April 30, 2004) | ISBN: 1402077440 | Pages: 376 | PDF | 22.66 MB

Electrochemistry and Corrosion Science is a graduate level text/professional reference that describes the types of corrosion on metallic materials. The focus will be on modeling and engineering approximation schemes that describe the thermodynamics and kinetics of electrochemical systems. The principles of corrosion behavior and metal recovery are succinctly described with the aid of pictures, figures, graphs and schematic models, followed by derivation of equations to quantify relevant parameters.

Example problems are included to illustrate the application of electrochemical concepts and mathematics for solving complex corrosion problems. This book differs from others in that the subject matter is organized around the modeling and predicating approaches that are used to determine detrimental and beneficial electrochemical events. Thus, this book will take a more practical approach and make it especially useful as a basic text and reference for professional engineers.

Handbook of Cathodic Corrosion Protection

Walter Baeckmann, Wilhelm Schwenk, W. Prinz, "Handbook of Cathodic Corrosion Protection"
G..ul.f Pr..of.ess.i.ona.l P.u..bli.shi.ng; 3 edition | English | 1997-10-31 | ISBN: 0884150569 | 568 pages | PDF | 14.7 mb

This comprehensive handbook covers all aspects of cathodic protection in terms of both practice and theory.
This handbook covers completely all the background theory and fundamentals of practice as well as the latest knowledge and advances in applications....No other work, in any language, comes close to the comprehensiveness you will find in this. (Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology)


Control of Pipeline Corrosion (2nd Edition)

Nace International | ISBN: 1575900920 | 2001-01 | PDF (OCR) | 347 pages | 13.0 Mb

For over 30 years Control of Pipeline Corrosion, written by A.W. Peabody, has been the most trusted resource in the field of pipeline cor-rosion. Now completely revised and updated, the second edition of this classic reference continues the tradition of excellence by providing the most thorough and authoritative coverage of the prevention and control of pipeline corrosion. Peabody's Control of Pipeline Corrosion, Second Edition, blends traditional corrosion engineering practices with modern technologies to make this the single source for corrosion control.

The late Marshall Parker was one of the world's foremost experts when it came to solutions to problems of pipe line corrosion and cathodic protection. Mr. Parker studied mathematics and physics and held degrees from Sam Houston State Teachers College and Rice University. He began his engineering studies with Houston Light and Power Co. He was a registered professional engineer in Texas and a consultant on pipe line corrosion for many years. He was also active in the National Association of Corrosion Engineers, where he served on several technical committees and taught short courses.

Corrosion in Refineries


Corrosion in Refineries
Woodhead Publishing Ltd | July 31, 2007 | ISBN-10: 1845692330 | 128 pages | PDF | 3.1 Mb

Corrosion in ageing refinery plant presents a serious safety hazard. This important book summarises key research into corrosion processes in refinery equipment, how it can be measured and controlled. The book reviews factors affecting corrosion such as carburisation and metal dusting as well as corrosion in steel and other materials used in refinery technology. It considers corrosion in a range of refinery equipment such as storage tanks, HF alkylation units, sour water strippers and insulated units. Other chapters discuss ways of testing for corrosion and cracking in refineries together with integrity and life cycle assessment techniques. There is also coverage of ways of trouble-shooting corrosion problems and preventative measures such as coating systems. With its distinguished editor and team of contributors, Corrosion in refineries is a valuable reference for all those concerned with building and maintaining refineries in the petrochemical industry.
