This article focuses on the effects of process variables on corrosion of metals in processing plants: plant environments; startup, shutdown, and downtime conditions; and seasonal temperature changes. It also tabulates the effects of process variables on corrosion of metals in aggressive environments.

This article provides a detailed discussion on the corrosion of steel and stainless steel under insulation. Stress corrosion cracking mechanism, types of alloys susceptible to corrosion, factors influencing corrosion, and corrosion prevention methods, are also discussed.

This article describes the selection of materials for the production and handling equipment of concentrated sulfuric acid, depending on...
