Analysis of internal corrosion of supercritical CO2 pipeline

Abstract

Abstract Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is considered to be one of the key technologies to reduce CO2 emissions. This paper reviews the industry corrosion accidents of CCS transportation system, in which the pipeline corrosion risk is analyzed, and the pipeline corrosion theory is summarized. Also, the effect of impurities on gas phase properties is discussed. We analyze the corrosion mechanism of multicomponent impurities on metals in a supercritical CO2 environment from the aspects of corrosion rate and corrosion products. We also describe the mechanism of pitting and stress corrosion of metals in a supercritical CO2 environment. Besides, the formation mechanism of FeCO3 protective layer and the research status of corrosion resistant alloys in supercritical CO2 are reviewed and analyzed. Finally, a series of shortcomings and prospects of the current research are put forward.
