This article summarises the international development of cathodic protection of steel in concrete. The technology was developed in Europe and the USA for applications to buried prestressed concrete ...

For a pipeline coating to be truly compatible with cathodic protection (CP), the coating should allow CP protection to the pipe even if disbondment occurs and water penetrates between the coating and ...

Ottawa, Feb. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In terms of revenue, the global cathodic protection market was valued at USD 5.28 billion in 2024, It is predicted to increase from USD 5.58 billion in 2025 ...

Hyperbolic cooling towers remove heat from power plant condensers using natural draft. Air rises through the center of the tower, and hot water is discharged as a spray in the interior. The ...

Oil and natural gas are vital constituents of our energy ecosystem that need to be transported across long distances. Although steel pipelines are the infrastructure used for this purpose, thereby ...

Cathodic corrosion protection is a widely used technique for protecting steel-based infrastructure from corrosion. ETH researchers have now clarified the detailed mechanisms involved, thereby ...

It’s only a matter of time before someone in a power plant is killed by a preventable catastrophic failure of a buried natural gas pipeline. The danger posed is less the result of willful negligence ...

Corrosion of buried steel can be managed through one or some combination of the following four approaches: (1) the service life of the steel can be increased with additional steel incorporated into ...

Corrosion Protection of offshore oil & gas facilities Offshore oil & gas infrastructure is protected from seawater corrosion through Cathodic Protection which works by either a galvanic (sometimes ...

Cathodic corrosion protection is widely used, but how it works exactly has been unclear and disputed by experts. ETH researchers propose a mechanism that resolves the apparent contradictions between ...

An important aspect in the use of cathodic protection of reinforced concrete is the need for regular monitoring of performance and maintenance of the anode and electrical systems. This is to ensure ...
