Chapter 1p rovides information on mortars, grouts, and monolithic
surfacings.
Chapter2andC hapter 3e xplain meanso fc ontrolling/preventing
corrosion through the use of inhibitors or cathodic protection.
In manyinstances, it is more economical to construct atank or processing
vessel of aless expensive metal,such as carbonsteel, rather than an expensive alloy and install aliningtoprovide protection from corrosion. Chapter 4
through Chapter 6p rovides details of various liningm aterials of both
sheetand liquid form,while Chapter 7through Chapter 10 provides details
of coating materials, botho rganic and metallic. Compatibility charts are
provided in all cases.
Because processing conditions can change or upsets take place, it is
necessary that any corrosion that may occur be monitored. Chapter 11
discusses various techniques that may be employedt ok eep check on any
corrosion that may be taking place internally in av essel or pipeline.
It is the intention of this book that regardless of what is being built,
whether it is ab ridge, tower,p ipeline, storage tank, or processing vessel,
information for the designer/engineer/maintenance personnel/or whoever
is responsible for the selection of material of construction willb ef ound in
this book to enablet hem to avoid unnecessary loss of material through
corrosion.
