Evaluating Corrosion Control Alternatives For A Reverse Osmosis, Nanofiltration And Anion-exchange Blended Water SupplyWilder, Rebecca J 01 January 2012 (has links)
The research reported herein describes the study activities performed by University of Central Florida (UCF) on behalf of the Town of Jupiter Water Utilities (Town). The Town recently changed its water treatment operations from a combination of reverse osmosis (RO), lime softening (LS) and anion-exchange (IX) to a combination of RO, IX and nanofiltration (NF). Although this treatment change provided enhanced water to the surrounding community in terms of better contaminant removal and reduced DBP formation potential, integration of the NF process altered finished water quality parameters including pH, alkalinity and hardness. There was concern that these changes could result in secondary impacts related to accelerated corrosion of distribution system components and subsequent regulatory compliance. In addition, replacement of the LS process altered the in-plant blending operations by creating an unstable intermediate blend composed of RO and IX waters. There were concerns that this intermediate blend was affecting the integrity of in-plant hydraulic conveyance components. UCF developed a corrosion monitoring study to assess the potential impacts related to internal corrosion, water quality and regulatory compliance after integrating NF into the existing water supply. The intended purpose was to further highlight the complexities of corrosion, describe a unique approach to corrosion monitoring as well as offer various recommendations for corrosion control in a system that relies on a blended water supply. Research was conducted in three phases to address the in-plant and distribution system corrosion issues separately and identify appropriate corrosion control treatment alternatives. The three test phases included: a baseline conditions assessment to iv compare corrosion of the intermediate RO-IX blend with the finished water blend (ROIX-NF); an in-plant corrosion control evaluation; and a distribution system corrosion control evaluation. A test apparatus was constructed and operated at the Town’s facilities to monitor corrosion activity of mild steel, copper and lead solder metal components. The test apparatus consisted of looped PVC pipe segments housed with electrochemical probes and metal coupons to monitor corrosion rates of the metallic components. Electrochemical probes containing metal electrodes were used to obtain instantaneous corrosion rates by means of the Linear Polarization Resistance (LPR) technique while the metal coupons were gravimetrically evaluated for weight loss. The electrochemical probes permitted daily monitoring of each metal’s corrosion rates while metal coupons were analyzed at the conclusion of testing and used for comparison. Different test waters flowed through the corrosion rack according to each test phase and relative corrosion rates were compared to evaluate corrosion control techniques. Study findings indicated that the intermediate blend was more corrosive, in general, then the final blend; however, research also indicated that the final blend of water was increasing lead and copper concentrations within the distribution system. An orthophosphate corrosion inhibitor was evaluated for in-plant corrosion control. The inhibitor’s performance was assessed by comparing mild steel corrosion rates with and without the chemical. In addition, secondary impacts related to introduction of the chemical were evaluated by pre-corroding the metallic components prior to the introduction of the inhibitor. Results indicated that the inhibitor marginally decreased corrosion rates and increased the turbidity of the water supply. Based on these v observations, it was concluded that the inhibitor was not a viable solution for in-plant corrosion control. To resolve in-plant corrosion issues, recommendations were made for modification of in-plant blending operations to eliminate the corrosive intermediate blend from the process allowing the RO, IX and NF treated waters to be blended in a common location. The effectiveness of a poly/ortho blended phosphate chemical inhibitor was evaluated for reducing lead and copper corrosion to resolve distribution corrosion issues. A 50/50 poly/ortho blend was selected because of its analogous use in similar municipal water facilities. Metallic corrosion rates, particularly lead and copper, were compared with and without the inhibitor to assess the performance of the chemical. Like the previous test phase, the metallic components were pre-corroded prior to the chemical’s introduction to determine if secondary impacts could result from its presence. Results indicated that lead and copper corrosion rates were lower in the presence of the inhibitor, and secondary impacts related to increased turbidity were not observed for this chemical. Based on these results, it was recommended that a poly/ortho blended phosphate be used to decrease lead and copper corrosion within the Town’s distribution system.

Contribuição ao estudo da Erosão-corrosão de um Aço de Baixo Carbono na presença de Água contendo 3,5% de sal, areia e Inibidor de Corrosão / Contribution to Erosion-Corrosion study of a Low Carbon Steel in the presence of Water containing 3.5% salt, sand and Corrosion InhibitorMagalhães, Luciano da Rocha 09 March 2018 (has links)
CAPES - Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / CNPq - Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / A extração de petróleo em águas profundas impõe diversos desafios às empresas de óleo e gás e, dentre eles, destaca-se o desgaste sofrido na parte interna dos dutos de transporte devido à ação da água produzida (elevado teor salino), gases e particulados, principalmente a areia produzida. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar a erosão-corrosão de um aço com baixo teor de carbono (VMEC 134AP) em um flowloop sob condições dinâmicas: fluido em escoamento com 3,5 % de NaCl, areia em concentração de 40 g cm-3 e adição de substância inibidora de corrosão, com foco principal em observar a possível interação entre o agente erosivo e o inibidor. Para isso, realizaram-se ensaios de erosão-corrosão em um circuito fechado de tubulações com quatro polegadas de diâmetro interno (101,2 mm) e foram aplicadas as técnicas de medição da taxa de desgaste: cupons de perda de massa, resistência à polarização linear e espectroscopia de impedância eletroquímica. Foram monitoradas também a concentração de inibidor no fluido e as modificações na superfície dos corpos de prova por microscopia eletrônica de varredura. Ao fim deste trabalho, concluiu-se que o aço apresenta uma taxa de corrosão de 3,5 mm ano-1 sem a adição de inibidor e 0,4 mm ano-1 com a adição de inibidor. Não foi observada interação direta entre a areia e o inibidor de corrosão que pudesse comprometer a eficiência do mesmo. A técnica de espectroscopia eletroquímica foi empregada com sucesso em condições dinâmicas por meio de uma célula projetado especificamente para tubulações. Os resultados mostraram que a célula e a técnica foram capazes de identificar o efeito sinergético da erosão-corrosão na parte inferior da tubulação e também a atuação do inibidor de corrosão. / Deep water oil production imposes several challenges for oil and gas companies, and among them, the wear suffered in the interior of the transportation pipelines due to the action of produced water (high salt content), gases and particulates, especially produced sand. The objective of this work was to study the erosion-corrosion of a low carbon steel in a flowloop under dynamic conditions: fluid with 3.5% NaCl, sand at a concentration of 40 g cm-3 and addition of a corrosion inhibitory substance, with a main focus on observing the possible interaction between the erosive agent and the inhibitor. For this purpose, we performed erosion-corrosion tests in a closed circuit of pipes of four inches of internal diameter and we applied the corrosion rate measurement techniques of mass loss coupons, linear polarization resistance and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. We also monitored the concentration of inhibitor in the fluid and the modifications on the surface of the specimens by scanning electron microscopy. At the end of this work, we concluded that the steel presents a corrosion rate of 3.5 mm year-1 without the addition of inhibitor and 0.4 mm year-1 with the addition of inhibitor. We did not observe any direct interaction between the sand and corrosion inhibitor that could compromise the efficiency of the substance. We also concluded that electrochemical techniques can be successfully employed in dynamic conditions by means of a cell specifically designed for pipelines. The results showed that the cell and the technique were able to identify the synergistic effect of erosion-corrosion in the bottom of the pipe and also the action of the corrosion inhibitor. / Tese (Doutorado)

Previous issue date: 2008-04-25 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cient?fico e Tecnol?gico / An interesting development in surfactants science and technology is their application as corrosion inhibitors, since they act as protective films over anodic and cathodic surfaces. This work aims to investigate the efficiency of saponified coconut oil (SCO) as corrosion inhibitor and of microemulsified system (SCO + butanol + kerosene oil + distilled water), in saline medium, using an adapted instrumented cell, via techniques involving linear polarization resistance (LPR) and mass loss coupons (MLC). For this, curves of efficiency versus SCO concentration (ranging between 0 and 75 ppm) have been constructed. According to the obtained results, the following efficiency levels were reached with OCS: 98% at a 75 ppm concentration via the LPR
method and 95% at 75 ppm via the MLC method. The microemulsified system, for a concentration of 15 ppm of SCO, obtained maximum inhibition of 97% (LPR) and 93% (MLC). These data indicate that it is possible to optimize the use of SCO in similar applications. Previous works have demonstrated that maximal efficiencies below 90% are attained, typically 65% as free molecules and 77% in microemulsified medium, via the LPR method in a different type of cell. Therefore, it can be concluded that the adapted instrumented cell (in those used methods) showed to be an
important tool in this kind of study and the SCO was shown effective in the inhibition of the metal / Tensoativos v?m sendo alvo de interesse como inibidores de corros?o, pois funcionam como pel?culas protetoras sobre ?reas an?dicas e cat?dicas. Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a efici?ncia de inibi??o ? corros?o do tensoativo
?leo de coco saponificado (OCS) e do sistema icroemulsionado (OCS + butanol + querosene + ?gua destilada), em meio salino, utilizando-se uma c?lula instrumentada adaptada. A efic?cia do OCS foi avaliada utilizando-se os m?todos de
resist?ncia de polariza??o linear (LPR) e cupons de perda de massa (CPM), tendo sido constru?das curvas de efici?ncia versus concentra??o de OCS (variando de 0 a 75 ppm). De acordo com os resultados obtidos, verificou-se que este tensoativo apresenta a seguinte ordem de efici?ncia de inibi??o ? corros?o: para uma concentra??o de 75 ppm, 98% pelo m?todo LPR e 95% pelo m?todo CPM. O sistema microemulsionado, para uma concentra??o de 15 ppm de OCS, obteve inibi??o m?xima de 97% (LPR) e 93% (CPM). Atrav?s deste trabalho foi poss?vel otimizar o uso do tensoativo OCS, que em trabalhos anteriores mostrou efic?cia m?xima inferior a 90% (63% na sua forma livre e 77% na sua forma microemulsionada, pelo m?todo LPR, em um outro tipo de c?lula). Conclusivamente, pode-se dizer que a c?lula instrumentada adaptada (nos m?todos utilizados) provou
ser uma ferramenta importante neste tipo de estudo e o OCS mostrou-se efetivo na inibi??o do metal

Previous issue date: 2015-08-04 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior - CAPES / In this work six asymmetric thyourea, derived from benzylamine and phenethylamine, were synthesized by reaction of p-substituted phenyl isothiocyanates in the presence of benzylamine and phenethylamine in toluene as solvent by irradiation in ultrasonic bath, featuring the first report in the literature of the adoption of this method for such molecules. The compounds were obtained in high purity, requiring only one recrystallization from hexane/dichloromethane. Yields were very satisfactory, ranging from 89 to 98%. The compounds were characterized by spectroscopic techniques such as 1H, 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and IR.
The synthesized compounds were evaluated by electrochemical potentiodynamic polarization techniques, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy and Linear Polarization Resistance as inhibitors to the corrosion AISI 1020 carbon steel in 1M HCl media.
Molecular modeling was used for better visualization of the thiourea structures and to correlate theoretical parameters such as the energy of the symmetrical frontier orbital, Mulliken charge on the sulfur atom and dipole moment with the experimental results for corrosion efficiency.
In general, all compounds showed corrosion inhibition efficiency with characteristics of mixed inhibitors with anodic trend, however compounds with nitro substituent showed less efficiency, a fact that may be related to their electrons withdrawing potential, which consequently decreases the electron density at the possible center of chemical adsorption, the sulfur atom. However, compounds which showed no substituent and those that contain electron donating group (OCH3) stood out as inhibitors, highlighting N- (p-methoxyphenyl) -N'-phenetylthiourea, which showed 95% efficiency corrosion inhibition, from Electrochemical Impedance spectroscopy.
Thus, the asymmetric thiourea benzyl and phenethyl-substituted, especially methoxy-substituted phenyl, can be considered as promising corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel in acid. / Nesse trabalho de disserta??o foram sintetizadas seis tioureias assim?tricas, derivadas da benzilamina e fenetilamina. A obten??o ocorreu atrav?s da rea??o dos isotiocianatos de fenila p-substituidos na presen?a da benzilamina e fenetilamina em tolueno como solvente atrav?s de irradia??o em banho de ultrassom, sendo o primeiro relato na literatura dessa metodologia para tais mol?culas. Os compostos foram obtidos em alto grau de pureza, sendo necess?ria apenas uma recristaliza??o em hexano/diclorometano. Os rendimentos foram muitos satisfat?rios, variando de 89 ? 98%. Os compostos foram caracterizados por t?cnicas espectrosc?picas como Resson?ncia Magn?tica Nuclear 1H,13C e Infravermelho.
Os compostos sintetizados foram avaliados atrav?s das t?cnicas eletroqu?micas de Polariza??o Potenciodin?mica, Espectroscopia de Imped?ncia Eletroqu?mica e Resist?ncia a Polariza??o Linear quanto ? a??o como inibidores de corros?o frente a a?o carbono AISI 1020 em HCl 1 mol.L-1.
A Modelagem Molecular foi utilizada para melhor visualiza??o das estruturas das tioureias e correlacionar os par?metros te?ricos como a energia dos orbitais de fronteiras sim?tricos, carga de Mulliken no ?tomo de enxofre e momento dipolar com os resultados experimentais da efici?ncia anticorrosiva.
De forma geral, todos apresentaram efici?ncia de inibi??o ? corros?o com caracter?sticas de inibidores mistos com tend?ncia an?dica, por?m os compostos com substituinte nitro apresentaram menor efici?ncia, fato esse que pode estar relacionado ao seu poder retirador de el?trons, que consequentemente, diminui a densidade eletr?nica no poss?vel centro de adsor??o qu?mica, o enxofre.
Por?m, os compostos que n?o apresentaram substituintes e os que cont?m grupo doador de el?trons (OCH3) se destacaram como inibidores, dando destaque a N-(p-metoxi-fenil)-N?-fenetiltioureia, que apresentou efici?ncia de 95% de inibi??o da corros?o, pela t?cnica de Espectroscopia de Imped?ncia Eletroqu?mica.
Assim, as tioureias assim?tricas benzil e fenetil-substitu?das, especialmente met?xi-fenil substitu?das, podem ser consideradas como promissores agentes inibidores da corros?o para o a?o-carbono em meio ?cido.

Previous issue date: 2012-08-27 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cient?fico e Tecnol?gico / A batch of eighty-four coupons of low carbon steel were investigated at laboratory
conditions under a corrosive, cavitative-corrosive (CO2) and corrosive-erosive (SiO2 +
CO2) in an aqueous salt solution and two levels of temperature. The following
measurements were made on Vickers (HV0,05, HV0,10, HV0,20) Microhardness tests at
three levels of subsurface layer. A turbulent flow collided on the cylindrical sample,
with and without mechanical stirring and gas bubbling, with and without fluid
contamination by solid particles of SiO2, at two temperatures. Surface Roughness
and Waviness, under two conditions "as received, after machining" and "after worn
out", as well as gravimetric and electrochemical parameter were measured on the
two opposite generatrices of each cylindrical sample, on the flow upstream (0?) and
downstream (180?) by Profilometry, Mass Variation and Linear Polarization
Resistance (LPR). The results of the Microhardness and Surface Texture of all
coupons were subjected to statistical comparison, using the software Statgraphics?
Centurion XVI, 95% statistical certainty, and significant differences were observed in
some arrays of measurements. The corrosive wear rate measured by LPR and mass
variation shown to be sensitive to the presence of bubbles and hydrodynamic
fluctuations inside the cell, considering the temperature and contamination of
corrosive fluid by solid particles. The main results of visual inspection relative to
some topologies of the surface damages involving different mechanisms that were
seen to give explanation for some fluctuations in wear rates of the steel
