Abstract

The service life of reinforced concrete structure has been greatly influenced by corrosion of steel, however, impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) system is able to control corrosion of steel, especially which is corroded by chloride along the coast areas. In this work protection current and related technical parameter in both intake and outfall structure has been investigated in the seawater cooling structure along the coast area of Persian Gulf in Saudi Arabia. The most suitable protection current density provided by ICCP system is 5mA/m2for reinforced concrete structure in the severe marine corrosion area in Middle East.
