Abstract
Mild steel pipelines carrying coke oven (CO)b,l ast furnace (BF)a nd mixed gases in steel
plants are prone to attack by certain constituents of the gas. The rate of corroslon of the
internal surface of a gas pipeline can be combated by applying a suitable internal
protective coating to the pipeline. In this paper, varrous types of protective schemes
(developed and commercial) were applied on sand blasted r:iild steel panels and the
coated panels were evaluated by capacitance or resistance measurements and immersion
tests in various electrolyte and gas condensates. It was shown that the following protect~ve
schemes gave good performance in all the tests. 1. Zmc-sodium silicate + epoxy TiOz
2. Zinc-rich epoxy + eDoxY Tior 3. Zinc-rich + black finish (com) 4. Zinc-rich epoxy +
coal tar epoxy
