Offers information on all types of corrosion, corrosion theory and the major materials of construction used for reducing corrosion, including metals, plastics, linings, coatings, elastomers and masonry products. The text provides analyses of corrosion testing techniques, materials handling and fabrication procedures, on-stream and off-stream corrosion monitoring, design methods that prevent or control corrosion, and more.
Corrosion can be both costly and dangerous, resulting in product contamination or loss as well as structural instability and premature failure. This handbook contains information necessary for ensuring that, regardless of the structure being built, the materials selected for construction will minimize corrosion and its consequences. Nearly t
This handbook is an in-depth guide to the practical aspects of materials and corrosion engineering in the energy and chemical industries. The book covers materials, corrosion, welding, heat treatment, coating, test and inspection, and mechanical design and integrity. A central focus is placed on industrial requirements, including codes, standards, regulations, and specifications that practicing material and corrosion engineers and technicians face in all roles and in all areas of responsibility. The comprehensive resource provides expert guidance on general corrosion mechanisms and recommends materials for the control and prevention of corrosion damage, and offers readers industry-tested best practices, rationales, and case studies.
Corrosion is a huge issue for materials, mechanical, civil and petrochemical engineers. With comprehensive coverage of the principles of corrosion engineering, this book is a one-stop text and reference for students and practicing corrosion engineers. Highly illustrated, with worked examples and definitions, it covers basic corrosion principles, and more advanced information for postgraduate students and professionals. Basic principles of electrochemistry and chemical thermodynamics are incorporated to make the book accessible for students and engineers who do not have prior knowledge of this area. Each form of corrosion covered in the book has a definition, description, mechanism, examples and preventative methods. Case histories of failure are cited for each form. End of chapter questions are accompanied by an online solutions manual.* Comprehensively covers the principles of corrosion engineering, methods of corrosion protection and corrosion processes and control in selected engineering environments* Structured for corrosion science and engineering classes at senior undergraduate and graduate level, and is an ideal reference that readers will want to use in their professional work* Worked examples, extensive end of chapter exercises and accompanying online solutions and written by an expert from a key pretochemical university

The most complete corrosion control reference on the market―thoroughly revised for the latest advances This fully updated guide offers complete coverage of the latest corrosion-resistant materials, methods, and technologies. Written by a recognized expert on the subject, the book covers all aspects of corrosion damage, including detection, monitoring, prevention, and control. You will learn how to select materials and resolve design issues where corrosion is a factor. Handbook of Corrosion Engineering, Third Edition shows, step by step, how to understand, predict, evaluate, mitigate, and correct corrosion problems. This edition provides a new focus on the management of corrosion problems and draws on methodologies and examples from the 2016 IMPACT report. A new chapter discusses corrosion management across governments and industries. Coverage includes: • The functions and roles of a corrosion engineer • Atmospheric corrosion and mapping atmospheric corrosivity • Corrosion in waste water treatment and in water and soils • Corrosion of reinforced concrete • Microbes and biofouling • High-temperature corrosion • Modeling corrosion processes and life prediction • Corrosion failures • Corrosion maintenance through inspection and monitoring • Corrosion management across governments and industries • Selection and design considerations for engineering materials • Protective coatings and corrosion inhibitors • Cathodic and anodic protection
The Corrosion Engineering and Cathodic Protection Handbook combines the author's previous three works, Corrosion Chemistry, Cathodic Protection, and Corrosion Engineering to offer, in one place, the most comprehensive and thorough work available to the engineer or student. The author has also added a tremendous and exhaustive list of questions and answers based on the text, which can be used in university courses or industry courses, something that has never been offered before in this format. The Corrosion Engineering and Cathodic Protection Handbook is a must-have reference book for the engineer in the field, covering the process of corrosion from a scientific and engineering aspect, along with the prevention of corrosion in industrial applications. It is also a valuable textbook, with the addition of the questions and answers section creating a unique book that is nothing short of groundbreaking. Useful in solving day-to-day problems for the engineer, and serving as a valuable learning tool for the student, this is sure to be an instant contemporary classic and belongs in any engineer's library.
Corrosion costs billions of dollars to each and every single economy in the world. Corrosion is a chemical process, and it is crucial to understand the dynamics from a chemical perspective before proceeding with analyses, designs and solutions from an engineering aspect. The opposite is also true in the sense that scientists should take into consideration the contemporary aspects of the issue as it relates to the daily life before proceeding with specifically designed theoretical solutions. Corrosion Engineering is advised to both theoreticians and practitioners of corrosion alike. Corrosion engineering is a joint discipline associated primarily with major engineering sciences such as chemical engineering, civil engineering, petroleum engineering, mechanical engineering, metallurgical engineering, mining engineering among others and major fundamental sciences such as sub-disciplines of physical, inorganic and analytical chemistry as well as physics and biology, such as electrochemistry, surface chemistry, surface physics, solution chemistry, solid state chemistry and solid state physics, microbiology, and others. Corrosion Engineering is a must-have reference book for the engineer in the field that covers the corrosion process with its contemporary aspects with respect to both of its scientific and engineering aspects. It is also a valuable textbook that could be used in an engineering or scientific course on corrosion at the university level.
