NACE AMPP TR21448 – Corrosion Prevention and Control for Marine Scrubbers

AMPP continues to support the maritime industry by conducting a state-of-the-art survey on the corrosion of exhaust gas cleaning systems (EGCS) or scrubbers on ships. The ultimate objective of this study is to provide sound technical information on the corrosion risk of exhaust gas scrubbers to ship owners, shipyards, marine engineers, scrubber designers and suppliers. AMPP’s objective was to gather information and data on existing materials of construction, service conditions, performance history, and corrosion failures and successes. With 40 years’ worth of information in AMPP’s technical literature, the lessons learned continue to be gleaned from land-based flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) systems. This knowledge base on scrubber corrosion will help to ensure that similar problems or failures do not happen at sea. To expand its knowledge base, AMPP produced this technical report on Corrosion Prevention and Control for Marine Scrubbers.
