Corrosion in Gasworks Plant

Abstract

Although the wind of change is blowing strongly through the gas industry a substantial proportion of the gas, for some time to come, will be made by coal carbonisation and by carburetting water gas. Even these more conventional methods will be subject to change such as the choice of lower‐rank coals to produce reactive smokeless solid fuels and the use of light Hydrocarbon oils, such as primary flash distillate, in place of gas oil. This article deals with some of the corrosion problems that arise in these more established types of plant.
