    Corrosion on Stainless steel instalation

    Thank you fol all the commments. Some more question please. Is an anti-rust painting enough for the coating? Do you guys know if theres any corrosion inhibitors to add to water? We already will have air purge, ph control and corrision measure devices for the maintenance team. Other thing, do...

    Corrosion on Stainless steel instalation

    Thank you very much. I will probably coat the inside. By the way, could you explain the chemical reaction and the process that would happen in corrosion? For example, would the carbon steel corrode under normal conditions, causing the water to become more acidic, and then leading to more...

    Corrosion on Stainless steel instalation

    When I see huge is in comparing to the instalation, around 25000L. Maybe I should not refer to them as huge. The water will not be stagnant, there will be pumps for circulation. But in the buffer thank theres always a bit more stillness, thats what I meant. Do you think filters and air vents...

    Corrosion on Stainless steel instalation

    I’m particularly concerned about the inside of the tank. Since it’s a buffer tank, most of the water will be stagnant, and when it flows, it could transport small particles from the carbon steel tank. The fluid is potable water. The pH should be around 6. Temperatures of the fluid are from 17 to...

    Corrosion on Stainless steel instalation

    I'm working on a project that involves using a huge carbon steel buffer tank in a stainless steel piping system (close water chiller system). I'm concerned about potential corrosion issues that could arise from this combination. Has anyone here had experience with a similar setup? If so, what...
