Abstract:

The presence of solvent impurities can significantly impact the corrosion performance of stainless steel when exposed to CO2-saturated NaCl (Sodium Chloride) solutions. Solvent impurities, originating from various sources, may introduce chemical changes that interact with the metal surface and alter its corrosion resistance. Under simulated flow circumstances, the corrosion performance of stainless steels in the presence of contaminants such Monoethyleneglycol (MEG) and oxygen in a CO2 environment was investigated. Utilizing a rotating cage, the corrosion performance of stainless steel was assessed, and mass loss measurements were used to calculate the corrosion rates. According to the experimental findings, the oxygenated MEG exhibits a very low rate of corrosion. SEM and EDX surface analysis techniques were utilized to examine the corrosion product that had developed on the metal surface.
