APPLIED METALLURGY AND CORROSION CONTROL - AMIY...

This book serves as a comprehensive resource on metals and materials selection for the
petrochemical industrial sector. The petrochemical industry involves large scale investments 
and to maintain profitability the plants are to be operated with minimum downtime and failure
of equipment  which can also cause safety hazards. To achieve this objective proper selection
of materials  corrosion control  and good engineering practices must be followed in both the
design and the operation of plants. Engineers and professional of different disciplines
involved in these activities are required to have some basic understanding of metallurgy and
corrosion. This book is written with the objective of servings as a one-stop shop for these
engineering professionals. The book first covers different metallic materials and their
properties  metal forming processes  welding  and corrosion and corrosion control measures.
This is followed by considerations in material selection and corrosion control in three major
industrial sectors  oil & gas production  oil refinery  and fertilizers. The importance of
pressure vessel codes as well as inspection and maintenance repair practices have also been
highlighted. The book will be useful for technicians and entry level engineers in these
industrial sectors. Additionally  the book may also be used as primary or secondary reading for
graduate and professional coursework.
