Materials degradation costs billions of dollars and it often causes serious injuries, loss of life and
environmental pollution, which cannot be valued. The demand for energy efficiency and regulation on
emission controls is pushing materials to their limits. A better understanding of corrosion mechanisms
and corrosion protection will provide useful information to suppliers and users to control corrosion.
Corrosion science and engineering can help to ensure long, safe service of industrial structures by
providing information on materials selection and guidelines for protection. Topics include but are
not limited to the following:
- Regulatory aspects of the operation and inspection of pipelines
- Innovative sensor technologies for pipeline real-time monitoring
- Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) & fatigue analysis
- Fundamental study of new materials and their degradation mechanisms
- Safe service life time analysis for pipelines
- Failure analysis and case studies
- Innovative R & D in metal corrosion theory and mechanisms
- Protection and prevention (surface modification, inhibitors, and coatings and cathodic protection)
- Material selection (alloy development and evaluation)
- Techniques used in quality control of corrosion and its mitigation
- Corrosion in lightweight metals
- Corrosion in bleaching equipment, paper machines and recovery boilers
- Wear and erosion corrosion
- Innovative repair and rehabilitation technologies
