  1. WESTERN REGION GAS CONFERENCE AUGUST 21, 2012 CORROSION 101 BASIC CORROSION MADE CLEAR AS MUD PRESENTED BY John Brodar P.E. of the Salt River Project

  2. Just as Fire requires all three conditions (Fuel, Oxygen and an Ignition Source) to burn, several conditions must be present for Corrosion to occur. Corrosion requires an anode, a cathode, an electrolyte and a metallic path connecting the anode and cathode. If any one of these conditions is not present or prevented, corrosion will not occur. Corrosion is electrochemical in nature: the electrolyte and metallic path are necessary for current to flow. If there is no current flow there is no corrosion.

  3. ACME CAME MECA ECAM … REMOVE ANYONE AND THERE IS NO CORROSION.

  4. REMOVE THE ANODE REMOVE THE CATHODE REMOVE THE METALLIC PATH REMOVE THE ELECTROLYTE AND YOU STOP CORROSION.

  5. REMOVE THE ANODE REMOVE THE CATHODE REMOVE THE METALLIC PATH REMOVE THE ELECTROLYTE AND YOU STOP CORROSION.

  6. REMOVE THE ANODE REMOVE THE CATHODE REMOVE THE METALLIC PATH REMOVE THE ELECTROLYTE AND YOU STOP CORROSION.

  7. REMOVE THE ANODE REMOVE THE CATHODE REMOVE THE METALLIC PATH REMOVE THE ELECTROLYTE AND YOU STOP CORROSION.

  8. REMOVE THE ANODE REMOVE THE CATHODE REMOVE THE METALLIC PATH REMOVE THE ELECTROLYTE AND YOU STOP CORROSION.
