The role of chloride, oxygen and aluminum on corrosion resistance of coiled-pipes in tubular furnaces of oil refinery

Abstract

In this article has studied the negative roles of chlorides, dissolved oxygen and aluminum, which are existed directly in the oil or indirectly in the associated water on the corrosion resistance of the coiled-pipes of the tubular furnace inside KINEF refinery (Russia). In this paper, we studied the coiled-pipes of the ELOU-AVT-6 installation, which are subjected to severe destruction, and as a result, they are prematurely failed due to the negative effects of the studied impurities, which led to decrease their service life and the quality of oil products.
