Corrosion inhibitors are used in the petroleum industry in several steps, including drilling, production, transportation, and storage of oil and gas. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] They can mitigate different types of corrosion in the petroleum industry, such as generalized corrosion, pitting corrosion, erosion corrosion, stress corrosion, galvanic corrosion ...
NACE International Standard TM0208 defines volatile corrosion inhibitor (VCI) as a chemical substance that acts to reduce corrosion by a combination of volatilization from a VCI material, vapor transport in the atmosphere of an enclosed environment, and condensation onto surface in the space, including absorption, dissolution, and hydrophobic ...
The effectiveness of a corrosion inhibitor depends on fluid composition and dynamics. Corrosion inhibitors are common in industry, and also found in over-the-counter products, typically in spray form in combination with a lubricant and sometimes a penetrating oil. They may be added to water to prevent leaching of lead or copper from pipes. [2]
Scale inhibitors are specialty chemicals that are added to oil production systems to delay, reduce and/or prevent scale deposition. [ 4 ] acrylic acid polymers, maleic acid polymers and phosphonates have been used extensively for scale treatment in water systems due to their excellent solubility, thermal stability and dosage efficiency.
Both of these cause significant degradation to traditionally constructed engines, posing both residue and corrosion issues in increasing proportion with increasing fractions of ethanol. Whereas age-degraded gasoline may simply polymerize, evaporate, and thus lose its flammability, age-degraded gasoline-ethanol blends can cause severe damage if ...
The generation of the corrosion products in the water piping systems is often minimized by controlling the pH of the process fluid (typically alkalinization with ammonia, morpholine, ethanolamine or sodium phosphate), control of oxygen dissolved in water (for example, by addition of hydrazine), or addition of corrosion inhibitors.
Low pH (acidic) aggravates corrosion, so use corrosion coupons [clarification needed] to monitor corrosion type, rates and to tell correct chemical inhibitor is used in correct amount. A corrosion coupon is a small piece of metal exposed to the process so to evaluate the effect the corrosive conditions would have on other equipment of similar ...
