Water distribution pipes installed underground have potential risks of pipe failure and burst. After years of use, pipe walls tend to be corroded due to aggressive soil environments where they are located. The present study aims to assess the degree of external corrosion of a distribution pipe network. In situ data obtained through test pit excavation and direct sampling are carefully collated and assessed. A statistical approach is useful to predict severity of pipe corrosion at present and in future. First, criteria functions defined by discriminant function analysis are formulated to judge whether the pipes are seriously corroded. Data utilized in the analyses are those related to soil property, i.e., soil resistivity, pH, water content, and chloride ion. Secondly, corrosion factors that significantly affect pipe wall pitting (vertical) and spread (horizontal) on the pipe surface are identified with a view to quantifying a degree of the pipe corrosion. Finally, a most reliable model represented in the form of a multiple regression equation is developed for this purpose. From these analyses, it can be concluded that our proposed model is effective to predict the severity and rate of pipe corrosion utilizing selected factors that reflect the fuzzy soil environment.

The most important factor in the maintenance of chemical industry facilities is related with deterioration and corrosion. Leakage of hazardous materials is likely to occur because the confirmation and maintenance of bottom plates are very difficult while the bottom corrosion of the massive hazmat-storage facilities is most dangerous especially. As a result of the analysis of the corrosion locations, areas, usage condition of 287 hazmat-storage tanks on this syudy, it is concluded that the main external corrosion factors are the inflow of moisture and the materials inducing corrosion in the air such as sodium chloride and the main internal corrosion factors are corrosion react caused by stay of seawater, sulfur and moisture in hazmat for a long time without appropriate discharges. It is anticipated that the corrosion of bottom plates can be restrained effectively by establishing the proper measures for the each corrosion cause.

It is well known that pipelines have the highest capacity and are the safest and least environmentally disruptive form of transporting oil and gas. However, pipeline damage caused by both internal and external corrosion is a major concern threatening the reliability of oil and gas transportation and the soundness of the pipeline structure. In this study, we estimate the allowable damage by comparing the ASTM B31G code to a modified theory considering diverse detailed corrosive forms. The ASTM B31 G code has been developed as the evaluation method for reliability and incident prevention of damaged pipelines based on the amount of loss due to corrosion and the yield strength of materials. Furthermore, we suggest a method for estimating the expected life span of used pipelines by utilizing the reliability method based on major variables such as the depth and length of damage and the corrosion rate affecting the life expectancy of the pipelines.

With the development of Chinese petroleum and gas industry, about 20,000 km long-distance pipeline and 250,000 km gathering pipeline have been constructed in China. After operating for many years, most of the coatings on buried pipelines have aged so severe that the steel pipes are subject to corrosion environment underground. Focusing on the need of external coating for buried pipeline rehabilitation, a new type of coating has been developed. The development and application of the coatings has been introduced in this paper.

Concrete structures move wholly with concrete and rebar, so they endure external force, but recently the embedded rebar in concrete has been corroded by environmental, physical and chemical factors, the embedded rebar corrosion influences concrete structure to deteriorate structure capacity. To revaluate effect to deterioration of concrete structure according to corrosion of rebar, the researcher mostly examined into corrosion rebar and complex relation of concrete. In that there are flexural strength deterioration of corrosion concrete structure and the bond strength of concrete. But It has not sufficiently studied about physical characteristic of corrosion rebar itself. In this study I will compare specification of rebar through corrosion experiment with corrosion ratio of rebar according to diameter and revaluate. And will investigate the effect to strength characteristic of rebar according to corrosion ratio.

출토 청동 유물에서는 매장 환경 내 공존하는 복합적인 부식 인자로 인해 다양한 형태와 색상의 부식 생성물이 관찰되며, 이러한 부식 생성물은 장기 부식의 정보뿐만 아니라 보존처리 시 중요한 자료가 될 수 있다. 따라서 청동 유물의 부식층 및 부식 생성물에 대한 과학적 분석을 실시하여 부식층 형성 과정 및 부식 생성물의 특성을 규명하고, 노출된 매장 환경의 특성 및 내부 부식 인자와의 연관성을 해석하는 연구가 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 동일 유적에서 출토된 청동 유물을 합금비와 제작기법에 따라 분류 후, 표면·부식층·부식 생성물에 대한 종합적인 분석을 실시하여 청동 유물의 부식 메커니즘과 부식층 형성 과정, 부식 생성물의 특성에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 분석 대상으로 선정된 총 5점의 시료는 합금비 및 제작기법 분석 결과에 따라 2개의 그룹으로 구분되는데, Cu-Sn-Pb합금으로 열처리가 진행되지 않은 Group 1은 내·외측 중 일부 또는 양측에 외부 부식층이 형성되어 있으며, 표면은 녹색 또는 청색으로 확인되었다. 소지 금속에서는 α상, α+δ상 선택 부식이 일어나는 것을 알 수 있었으며, α+δ상 선택 부식 후 빈 공간에 순도가 98% 이상인 Cu가 농축되어 있는 현상이 확인되었다. Cu-Sn합금으로 열처리가 진행된 Group 2는 외부 부식층이 형성되지 않았으며, 표면이 어두운 황색으로 관찰되었다. 또한 Group 1과는 다르게 소지 금속 내부에서 α상 선택 부식이 발생한 것을 확인하였다. 연구결과를 종합해 볼 때 동일한 유적에서 출토된 청동 유물에서도 합금비 및 제작기법에 따라 부식층 형성과정 및 부식 생성물의 형태와 색상, 금속이온 이동경로 등 여러 측면에서 차이를 나타냄을 알 수 있다. 또한 동일 유물에서도 부분적으로 서로 다른 부식 특성을 보이기도 하는데 이는 매장 환경 내 노출 환경에 따라 다른 형태의 부식이 발생할 수 있음을 뜻한다. 따라서 동일 유적에서 출토된 청동 유물이라 하더라도 합금비, 제작기법, 노출 환경에 따라 부식 특성이 다를 것이라고 판단된다. 본 연구는 특정 지역 및 유물을 대상으로 한 부식 특성의 일면을 보여주는 것이므로 향후 여러 지역에서 출토되는 청동 유물의 부식층 및 부식 생성물 특성에 대한 연구를 통해 매장 환경에 따른 부식 메커니즘에 대한 심층적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Corrosion of rebar embedded reinforced concrete is the main cause of collapse and degradation of reinforced concrete structure that many researches are recently focused on these works. Methods of evaluating rebar corrosion are divided into physical and electrochemical methods. However, the result of Conventional methods are less reliable due to effect of internal and external environments. In this study, rebar corrosion detection sensor for embedded rebar of RC structures is evaluated through immersion test in NaCl solustion for 160hours. From the results, Rebar corrosion was ongoing and corrosion products are produced on rebar surface. The voltage is decreased as amount of corrosion production increased.

The purpose of this study is to apply cathodic protection to reinforced concrete structure and provide fundamental data to prevent the corrosion. The theory of cathodic protection of steel in concrete is to apply sufficient direct current so that corroding anodes on the steel are prevented from discharging ions. Two methods are used to supply the external current. In one, the protected metal is the cathode by connecting it to a more active metal. In the second, an external direct current power source supplies the current. The first is the sacrificial-anode system and the second the impressed-current system. The study results showed that the corrosion of the reinforcing steel in concrete could be enormously decreased by using protective current. The sacrificial anode and concrete nave to be adhered closely each in order to prevent the corrosion of reinforcing steel.
