Corrosion in Power Industry

Corrosion in Power Industry

Description:

Nowadays trend in application of eco policy, more strict legislative and globalisation in economy together with research and development in emerging technologies such as nanotechnology bringing also new corrosion challenges into the power industry sector. New alloys and composite materials, eco-friendly energy systems, effective monitoring techniques and sophisticated prediction methods contribute on safer and more reliable operation of energy units. All up-mentioned circumstances required interdisciplinary approach to build perspective solutions with aim to minimize degradation process of components made from different materials used in power industry. In this special issue You can find papers dealing with application of nanotechnologies, corrosion monitoring techniques, materials characterisation but also several case studies from corrosion failures in power industry. All these information contribute on expansion of knowledge database, which is highly sufficient in the area with main aim to prevent against corrosion failures.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView: This book collects the latest research on methods for preventing corrosion failures. The peer-reviewed papers deal with areas such as application of nanotechnologies, corrosion monitoring techniques, materials characterization, and case studies of corrosion failures in the power industry. Papers are in sections on degradation of solar cells, corrosion of nanoparticles, failure analysis, surface treatment, material properties, and safety issues. Some specific subjects explored include metallic nanoparticles in heat exchange liquids, the effect of humidity on the surfaces of solar absorber plates, and corrosion degradation of steel pipes in indirect cooling circuits. B&w photos and images are included.
