Introduction
Training course introducion / brief

Corrosion Problems have always presented a Severe Challenge to all Industrial Field Operations. Operators plan for long periods of continuous production with maintenance schedules for the prescribed shutdown periods. Unfortunately, corrosion does not always respect these schedules, resulting in severe economic penalties due to loss of production. In addition, the risk of pollution and hazards to safety are other important reasons for adequate Corrosion Engineering.

 Fracture mechanics.

All industrial problems which confronts the engineers, few can be economically more important than the prevention of metallic corrosion and mechanical failure. The corrosion failure of metallic materials causes billions of dollars globally every year. This seminar combines two major aspects of industrial and governmental problems. These are corrosion and fracture mechanics. The lack of understanding will not only cost a lot of money it will also cost human life.

Preventing or reducing the corrosion mechanism will increase the productivity and efficiency of any plant.The course considers external protection using corrosion resistant materials, coatings, and cathodic protection. The importance of internal corrosion and its prevention will be examined with emphasis on material selection, coatings and use of corrosion inhibitors. Also it is structured in order to train people in the fundamental understanding of corrosion and fracture mechanics. The course also highlights protection methods and fracture prevention methods. Alloy selection and material design is also considered from a practical angle.

Course Objectives
At the end of the training course, participants will be able to
  • To understand the Principles of Oxidation, Corrosion Mechanism and Fracture Mechanics.
  •  Learn how to apply Non-Destructive Test (NDT) Methods of Inspection and metallurgy of corrosion and fracture of metallic alloys.
  •  Understanding Mechanism of Failure Mode of Industrial Components and Corrosion Protection Methods.
  •  Learn how to apply Modern Technology Development of Corrosion Protection Alloys.
  •  Apply Quality Control Methods in Corrosion Protection and Also High Temperature Corrosion and Oxidation Principles for demanding Industrial Applications.
  •  Understand the Fracture Mechanism and Failure Modes of Engineering Components from a Practical Angle.
  •   Understanding of Corrosion Engineering  in Industrials involving the Various Methods available for Corrosion Control, regulatory and safety matters, and the contribution of an integrated monitoring and inspection program.
