CORROSION INHIBITORS IN REFINERY PROCESS STREAMS

Abstract

Presented herein is information developed by a panel of the Sub‐Committee on Corrosion of the American Institute of Petroleum concerned with the mechanism of corrosion inhibition, temperature limitations, detergent action and chemical composition of the high‐molecular‐weight organic inhibitors commonly used in process streams. Included is a literature survey on the mechanism of corrosion inhibition; refinery experiences with inhibitors as developed by a questionnaire; and information contributed by manufacturers of inhibitors. Other data pertinent to corrosion and inhibitor problems are discussed.
