The title has been revised for the third edition to reflect the basic premise that corrosion control is an attempt to extend the useful life of water i

The text is intended to give the reader an understand-ing of how and why corrosion occurs, how the corrosion potential of an environment is evaluated, and how many of the proven corrosion prevention and control measures oper-ate. For readers who believe a review of theoretical concept

32、s of basic chemistry and basic electrical circuit theory is necessary beyond that which is addressed herein, the relevant sections of Basic Science Concepts and Applications* are recommended.Updates in this third edition were made to the figures, tables, and text, including dis-cussion of the effect

33、s of chemical environment on pipe materials, pitting and crevice corro-sion, common water pipe coatings, and recommended protective methods for specific pipe materials. Topics added or expanded on include stray current corrosion, microbiologically induced corrosion (MIC), oxygen-concentration cells,

34、 crevice corrosion of stainless steel, galvanic corrosion, and stainless steel in aboveground environments. New emphasis was placed on using field and lab measurements to determine corrosive conditions. The general principles and examples presented in this manual are not intended to replace the serv

However, methodical appli-cation of the principles introducedi.e., determining the cause of corrosion, analyzing its extent, and considering appropriate procedures for prevention or mitigationwill lay the foundation for an effective corrosion control progr

44、Cur-rent flow through the electrolyte is by ion transport and not electron flow. Free electrons do not exist in the electrolyte.In the galvanic cell, corrosion takes place at the surface of the electrode where elec-trons are generated to travel through the metal path. This electrode is called the an

45、ode.The conducting solution (water, soil, or some other chemical solution) is called the electro-lyte. The electrode to which electrons flow is called the cathode.

In the cell shown in Figure 2-2, the iron (Fe) anode on the left is corroding. Some of the iron atoms release electron

48、s, which travel across the electronic path and enter the cathode. This loss of electrons changes the iron atoms from elemental iron (Fe) to fer-rous iron (Fe2+) and then to ferric iron (Fe3+), leaving them with a strong positive charge. Some of the molecules of the electrolyte, in this case pure wat

49、er (H2O), are naturally sepa-rated into hydrogen ions (H+) with positive charges and hydroxyl ions (OH) with negative charges. The positively charged iron atoms are attracted to the negative OHions. The attraction causes the iron atoms to leave the anode and enter the electrolyte, where they combine with OHions. As atoms are lost, the metal surface of the anode deteriorates. This deterioration is corrosion. Note that the products of corrosion, Fe(OH)2and Fe(OH)3 , may accumulate on or near the corroded surface.At the cathode, the negatively c
