Abstract
The paper reviews the development of modern continuous corrosion surveillance technology during the past twelve years. Although originally developed to investigate corrosion behaviour in dry flue gas systems, the approach has found increasing use in other fields. Several recent applications in American flue gas desulphurisation (FGD) systems have confirmed its usefulness for the power generation industry.
The paper presents a description of the instrumentation and reviews laboratory and in‐plant applications experience. The potential for future use to control corrosion and mitigate its effects in power generation and airpollution control systems is also discussed.
