Abstract

studies using two commercially available vapor corrosion inhibitors (VCIs). For this FY, the VCI strategy was applied mid-experiment to determine performance on weathered coupons. The third task, Long-Term Open Circuit Potential (OCP) Drift, was performed using simplified simulated chemistries to evaluate change in pitting corrosion risk due to evolution of corrosion potential for mill-scale and freshly polished 600-grit surfaces. Finally, the fourth task, Microbiologically-Influenced Corrosion (MIC) studies, was focused on the study of leak detection pit (LDP) water sent from the Hanford tank farm for determination of bacteria that can be conducive to corrosion using commercially available kits: BARTTM and MICkit® 5. In addition, this FY, a secondary task was added which was a continuation of the study of the Quartz-enhanced Photoacoustic Spectroscopy (QEPAS) system. Work was started but was ultimately not pursued. A summary of each task performed is presented below.
