Abstract

The subject of this Diploma Thesis is the study of corrosion problems and its treatment using sacrificial electrodes (SACP). In this context, a study is made of the metal materials used in the shipbuilding industry, as well as a study of the corrosion and the problems that causes in the shipbuilding and repair sector. Special emphasis is given to the cathodic protection of ships as a method of corrosion protection and in particular to the use of sacrificial anodes. At the same time, modern approaches to the subject are presented including studies and experiments of new anode alloys consisting of nano-materials. This project, in addition to the theoretical study, includes the implementation and design of a cathodic protection system, using sacrificial anodes in a Bulk Carrier.
