Abstract:

Severe galvanic corrosion problems have been identified mainly in heat exchangers used in several industrial cooling systems from chemical plants, refineries, power plants. The causes of heat exchangers failure and the modalities to avoid it in the future are discussed, emphasizing mainly the role of design, operation, maintenance and reparation of this type of equipment.

Keywords:

corrosion, galvanic corrosion, cooling water, heat exchangers, stainless steel, water treatment, corrosion inhibitors.
