Provides detailed methods to reduce or eliminate damage caused by corrosion

Corrosion is inevitable, but it can be controlled. Like other natural hazards such as earthquakes or severe weather disturbances, corrosion can cause dangerous and expensive damage to everything from automobiles, home appliances, and drinking water systems to pipelines, bridges, and public buildings. Scientists have a major responsibility by their contributions and efforts to reduce unnecessary levels of corrosion and it is the responsibility of everyone that society uses metals to the best advantage.

Challenges in Corrosion, Costs, Causes, Consequences and Control centers around five facets of corrosion science; namely, (i) introduction and forms of corrosion; (ii) corrosion costs in various economic sectors; (iii) the causes of various forms of corrosion (iv) various methods of corrosion control and prevention in various sectors, and (v) the consequences of corrosion.

The first chapter constitutes an introduction to corrosion and various forms of corrosion such as general or uniform or quasi-uniform corrosion, galvanic corrosion, stray current corrosion, localized corrosion. It explains the causes of corrosion in the various industrial sectors such as oil and gas, concrete, and automobiles sectors as well as various countries.

It covers corrosion in a number of environments including where de-icing chemicals are used, corrosive gas atmospheres where chemicals such as sulphur dioxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide are present. It also discusses mechanical environments where stress corrosion cracking failures occur. It details the consequences of corrosion such as: economic losses, accidents caused by material failure, which are sometimes result in death of individuals, and environmental damage caused by corrosion such as atmospheric pollution. Challenges in Corrosion then goes on to discuss corrosion control including discussing various methods of detecting, minimizing and preventing corrosion.

An understanding of corrosion and its control is important for everybody. The monograph will be useful to industrial and governmental professionals pursuing research and development in corrosion studies as well as students in engineering and applied chemistry as a prescribed book in both undergraduate and graduate courses.

V. S. Sastri PhD. has over 35 years experience in Corrosion and Chemical Processes. Since 1994 he has been a consultant for Sai Ram Consultants. Dr. Sastri has written six books, approximately 200 papers in scientific journals, and has edited proceedings for five international conferences of the Metallurgical Society of CIM.
