Abstract
In 2015, the CO2 Technology Center Mongstad (TCM DA), operated a test campaign using aqueous monoethanolamine (MEA) solvent at 30 wt%. The main objective was to demonstrate and document the performance of the TCM DA Amine Plant located in Mongstad, Norway. During the test period TCM DA monitored several indicators for corrosion, as well as analyzed corrosion coupons exposed to rich and lean solvent during the campaign. The results indicate unacceptable levels of corrosion for S235, coarse general corrosion for Inconel 600, and acceptable levels of corrosion for SS304L, SS316L, 22 Cr duplex SS, Stellite 6, Stellite 12 and EPDM. Some pitting was however observed on 316L stainless steel. No stress corrosion cracking was found on SS304L and SS316L.
