INHIBITION AND CORROSION CONTROL PRACTICES FOR BOILER WATERS

The corrosion reactions analyzed include: pitting, concentration corrosion, caustic embrittlement, stress corrosion and corrosion-erosion. Internal treatment with inhibitors utilizes two forms: precipitating treatment and solubilizing treatment, using phosphate or carbonate control. Methods for controlling post boiler corrosion and corrosion in high-temperature hot-water systems are also dismissed.
