Updated: 8/17/2019

Chemical deterioration of a material (typically a metal) under very high temperature conditions. This non-galvanic form of corrosion can occur when a metal is subject to a high temperature atmosphere containing oxygen, sulfur or other compounds capable of oxidising (or assisting the oxidation of) the material concerned.

Causes of corrosion in power plant?

Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and other gases are a major cause of corrosion in the steam cycle. Corrosion leads to forced outages and increased maintenance costs. A common misconception is that high DO is concurrent with high air in-leak; this is not always the case. High DO and condensate ammonia concurrent with low air in-leakage is an indication that the condenser configuration may be inadequate.


What are the advantages and disadvantages of corrosion in general?

There are only some instances where corrosion is desired.
