| Summary: | This invaluable reference describes a systematic procedure for using process and mechanical design information to select materials of construction suitable for a wide range of chemical and hydrocarbon processing plants. Analyzing threshold values for degradation phenomena involving corrosion or thermal damage, Materials Selection for Hydrocarbon and Chemical Plants explores corrosion mitigation methods such as cathodic protection ... covers the use of templates in the materials selection procedure ... details how to develop and use a materials selection diagram ... discusses corrosion testing and its relevance to materials selection ... presents information on how to calculate corrosion rates for a variety of corrodents ... examines strain ageing and other forms of embrittlement ... and much more. Generously illustrated throughout and containing key literature citations, Materials Selection for Hydrocarbon and Chemical Plants is a vital reference for chemical, materials, mechanical, metallurgical, maintenance, plant, process, inspection, operating, heat transfer, rotating equipment, control systems, and welding engineers; piping and vessel engineers and designers; inspectors and stress analysts; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines. |
