Small fibers and fragments (microplastics: 1-1000 µm) can be released from textiles by mechanical abrasion during application (e.g. wearing) or washing. To date, the occurrence, transport pathways, and impacts of such small fibers on the environment and human health remain unclear. The European Commission revised the Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (Directive (EU) 2024/3019) and made monitoring of microplastics mandatory in the next years. Additionally, standards for microplastic detection are developed in the ISO standardization body ISO/TC 147/SC 2 with the documents ISO/DIS 16094-2 and ISO/DIS 16094-3. Detection mainly occurs by thermoanalytical methods for mass or vibrational methods with microscopes for numbers. Such standards and regulatory efforts need validated methods, which themselves need reference materials for validation. Reference materials are well characterized materials that are produced for a specific purpose and are homogeneous and stable within one property of interest. The shape and the composition of the reference particles/fibers will affect the detection, hence it is important to validate the instruments with fibers, if this is the task for monitoring campaigns. This work describes the production of realistic fibers as reference material for microplastic analysis. The individual samples contain of a small number (< 1000) and mass (< 20 µm) of fibres. Homogeneity and stability control occurred by thermogravimetric analysis and µ-Raman. Further characteristics were determined for type, shape and size distribution.

N2 - In den letzten 20 Jahren ist die Aufmerksamkeit vieler Forschender sowie der Politik und der Bürger selbst auf ein wachsendes Kunststoffproblem unserer Zeit stark gestiegen. Mangelnde Wertstoffkonzepte, Sammelstellen und unbedachtes Einbringen von Kunststoffprodukten in die Umwelt führen dort zu einer Anreicherung. Durch äußere Witterungseinflüsse können diese Produkte degradieren und fraktionieren, so dass heute in allen Teilen der Welt Mikroplastik (1-1000 µm, ISO/TR 21960:2020) unterschiedlicher Polymermaterialien nachgewiesen werden kann. Bei Mikroplastik gilt das Vorsorgeprinzip. Die Partikel können weiter zerfallen in Nanoplastik (< 1 µm, ISO/TR 21960:2020). Ob eine toxikologische Gefährdung von Mikro- oder Nanoplastik ausgeht, wird vielfältig untersucht. Bisher stehen valide Ergebnisse aus. Untersuchungen zur Häufigkeit, dem Transport und möglicher Senken und Eintragspfade muss aber Rechenschafft getragen werden, so dass ein Monitoring von Mikroplastik bereits in der Revision der Trinkwasserrahmen-Richtlinie und der Abwasserrahmen-Richtlinie gefordert wird. Bedenklich ist auch die Verordnung über Mindestanforderungen an die Wasserwiederverwendung (2020/741), in welcher nicht verbindlich gesagt wird, Wasser welcher Reinigungsstufe eines Klärwerks auf die Felder zur Wiederverwendung aufgebracht werden darf. Einer Regulierung über die EU-Plastikstrategie hinaus mit z.B. Verboten für Einwegplastik-Produkte und Rezyklingquoten kann nur entgegengewirkt werden, wenn valide Messmethoden, Referenzmaterialien und Standards existieren, die das tatsächliche Ausmaß von Mikroplastik-Konzentrationen in Luft, Wasser, Boden und Biota zuverlässig und genau aufzeigen.

Therefore, reference materials are essential to determine recovery rates and optimise the existing workflows. The reference materials should mimic the reality in terms of particle properties and concentration and are intended for a special use. The Quality-by-Design approach helps to select the users need and defines a target product profile with mandatory and desired particle properties. We will address different reference material top-down production processes with their limits and challenges for production of materials varying in size ranges of micro- and nanoplastics.

Methods used so far are very time consuming and not able to provide information on total contents. As harmonised sampling, sample preparation and analysis strategies are missing different studies can hardly be compared and quantitative data, including identification and mass contents of the polymers found, are missing. This leads to a lack of comprehensive understanding of MP occurrence, source and entry pathways into the environment. We developed a method, Thermal Extraction/Desorption-Gaschromatography-Massspectrometry, as a fast screening method for MP analysis. Solid residues of water samples are heated up to 600 C under a N2 atmosphere without any sample preparation. The collected decomposition gases are separated in a gas chromatography system and detected in a mass spectrometer. Mass contents of the identified polymers can be calculated. In this presentation we will show first results from the influent of the wastewater treatment plant Kaiserslautern (Germany) and its combined sewage system as possibly entry pathway. In order to determine the relevance of wastewater split streams analysis of grey water will be conducted. Samples are fractionally filtered by a sieve cascade with mesh sizes of 500, 100, 50 µm.

Dabei wird häufig von einer großen Anzahl an MP-Partikeln in allen Bereichen der Umwelt, wie dem Wasser, dem Boden, der Luft und in Biota sowie über mögliche Gefahren ausgehend von MP, berichtet. Jedoch sind diese Studien häufig nicht untereinander vergleichbar, da verschiedene Konzepte der Probennahme, der Aufbereitung und unterschiedliche Detektionsverfahren verwendet werden. Um diesen Mangel an vergleichbaren und aussagekräftigen Daten zu beheben, wird aktuell versucht, eine Harmonisierung der Mikroplastikanalytik voranzutreiben. Neue, schnellere Methoden zur MP Quantifizierung wurden entwickelt. Gleichzeitig werden neue Strategien zur Probenahme und Probenvorbereitung konzipiert, da hier die Fehlerquellen besonders große Auswirkungen auf das Ergebnis haben. In diesem Vortrag werden verschiedene Verfahren bezogen auf Probennahme, -vorbereitung und Analytik gezeigt und bezüglich ihres möglichen Ergebnisses diskutiert. T2 - 7.

Although microplastic findings in water, soil and even air are well known, no general estimations about the quality or quantity of microplastic particles in environment exit. Research is necessary to develop reliable and traceable, harmonized protocols for sampling, sample preparation and fast, but accurate analysis for qualitative and quantitative measurement of microplastic in various environmental matrices. For development of such reliable and traceable methods, the use of microplastic reference materials is necessary to assess various concepts. These microplastic reference particles should be an appropriate reflection of the microplastic particles found in environment. Due to the high use in industrial products six polymers seem to be relevant in environment as microplastic particles: polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyamide (PA) and polyvinylchloride (PVC). The raw source of These thermoplastic materials are pellets or granulate with dimensions of 1 to 5 mm in diameter. Most common they own a regular cylindrical shape or are prolate sphericals. These can be bought cost-efficient by various polymer producers. But discussions in microplastic research topic lead to particle sizes down to 1 μm. Furthermore, various unregular shapes and geometries of the particles have to be considered as well as an oxidized surface. In the present work we engage the acquisition and production of realistic reference material. Different aspects should demonstrate the complex and difficult task of generating approriate, cost-efficient and well-defined reference materials. The particle size distribution by using different particle sizing methods as well as individual particle shapes are documented. Different material properties were addressed. PE, PS and PA were chosen as typical and relevant microplastic with opposite individual material characteristics in density and glass Transition temperature. The easiest possibility for acquisition of small microplastic particles is the purchase of polymer emulsion particles (20 to 150 μm). An alternative possibility to produce small microplastic particles is milling under liquid nitrogen conditions in cryo mills. Particles purchased or self-made differ strongly in shape and size depending on production method.

T1 - Requirements for inter-lab comparison studies and cooperation with CUSP and JRC N2 - Results from different methods applied to micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) analysis show that there are large gaps in harmonisation with respect to terminology, size classes, sample preparation protocols and, finally, to the comparability of the measurands and descriptors. Within the European research cluster to understand the health impacts of micro- and nanoplastics (CUSP) working group WG3-Inter-Laboratory Comparisons an overview of the existing detection methods revealing advantages and disadvantages regarding the analytical tasks is being compiled. There is a clear need to develop high class characterized reference materials for MNPs in the size ranges of 100-10 µm and smaller than 10 µm, so that these can be used to validate methods and to make results comparable.

Standard laboratory MIC testing using static serum bottle enrichments is an easy but limited method, offering poor resolution on the biomineralization process of corrosion products. An example of this is the presumed corrosion product siderite by corrosive methanogens (Mi-MIC). Previous publications reported siderite was the sole corrosion product of M. maripaludis using metal coupons incubated under stationary conditions. However, the formation of siderite is closely related to the surrounding environmental conditions, i.e. pH, CO2 concentration, flow and temperature. Thus, siderite as the sole corrosion product of Mi-MIC remain inconclusive and questionable. To study Mi-MIC effectively, a novel versatile multiport flow-column corrosion monitoring system (MFC) was developed. MFC allows sectional corrosion rate determination under flow conditions using different types of material, inoculum and packing material. MFC offers great flexibility, ease of operation and accurate corrosion measurements that can be combined with many other techniques. Using MFC, we studied multiple strains of methanogens and compared it with sulfate-reducing bacteria under neutral and low pH conditions. It was revealed by MFC that corrosive methanogens have equally high corrosion potential as sulfate-reducing bacteria. Additionally, siderite is not the dominant nor sole corrosion product of Mi-MIC. Thus, effective corrosion monitoring and establishing standard laboratory practices, i.e. incorporating MFC as part of regular testing process, will provide deeper understanding of MIC. This will allow further microbial electrophysiology understandings, contributing to effective mitigation strategy development.

However, methanogenic Archaea (MA) can also be highly corrosive by using iron as an electron source for methanogenesis. Because of the fundamental physiological differences between archaea and bacteria, responses of MA towards SRM-specific biocides cannot be deduced using SRM. Due to the lack of information available on the effect of biocides on corrosive MA, we selected THPS, glutaraldehyde, nitrate and perchlorate to compare against corrosive SRM. Preliminary results showed that at low concentrations of THPS (0-10 ppm), growth of MA was not affected, methane production and corrosion rates (0.1 mm/yr) were comparable between the different THPS concentrations. On the contrary, the SRM strain showed decreased corrosion rates (0.18 mm/yr to 0.03 mm/yr) with increasing THPS concentrations. Further corrosion tests including electrochemical measurements of different biocides on the growth of MA and SRM will be conducted. Such knowledge not only provide important insights on the physiological response of MA to biocides but also contribute to more effective mitigation strategies that can be both economic and environmentally beneficial.

The most well-known culprit for MIC is the sulfate-reducing microorganisms (SRM), such as members from the genus Desulfovibrio. It has been widely accepted that SRM can contribute significantly to MIC through the production of hydrogen sulfide (HS-) or in some cases a direct electron uptake from the metal surface. However, in a real environmental system, SRM is not exclusive and often involved with other microorganisms that may also contribute to MIC, such as methanogens. Methanogenic archaea can produce methane (CH4) using H2+CO2, formate, methylated amines or acetate. Methanogens are highly abundant in the environment and many are found in very extreme conditions, such as high temperature and high salinity. Previous researches have demonstrated that methanogens are capable of MIC, though the specific mechanisms are still under investigation. In the oil and gas industry, methanogens are not considered as the main contributor for MIC since the corrosion rates are often too low. However, the tests for methanogen-induced MIC are usually performed at static conditions, which cannot represent the system accurately. Here, we developed a novel anaerobic system to evaluate the corrosion potential of methanogens under flow conditions. We will use the Methanococcus maripaludis KA1 strain, which was isolated from a crude oil tank, as the organism of interest. A separate system for Desulfovibrio alaskensis will be established for corrosion rate comparisons. Furthermore, we will study the synergistic effects of M. maripaludis and D. alaskensis on MIC under flow.

This makes these chemically inert luminescent materials ideal candidates for anticounterfeiting and authentication applications as well as for modules in optical sensors in which the LnNCs can be used as nanolamps in combination with analyte-sensitive fluorophores or the temperature sensitivity of defined emission bands can be utilized.

One possible cause of UCNP toxicity is the release of potentially harmful fluoride fluoride and lanthanide ions as revealed by dilution studies in aqueous environments, particularly under high dilution conditions.2-5 To address this issue, suitable surface coatings preventing such effects in combination with fast screening methods suited for online in situ analysis are desired.

These NPs have attracted considerable attention for different areas of application due to their unique spectral shifting potential providing multi-color luminescence in the UV/vis/NIR/SWIR. Important prerequisites for the broad applicability of these nanomaterials are simple and robust synthesis protocols for UCNP with defined morphologies and tunable optical properties, and a sufficient stability under application-relevant conditions. We built up a platform of UCNP based on AYF4 (A=alkali metal) host materials for usage as optical reporters, barcodes, sensors, and tags. This includes the synthesis of UCNPs with i) tunable size (10 – 150 nm), shape (spherical, rod-like, bipyramidal, etc.), and composition (Yb and Er/Tm as dopant ions) and ii) different core-shell architectures for emission color tuning. Therefore, we studied the reproducibility, robustness, and upscalability of the synthesis of β-NaYF4: Yb,Er UCNP via thermal decomposition and the tuning of UCNP size and shape by dopant ion ratios, host material, and reaction conditions and optically explored stability of selected UCNP in different environments under different application-relevant conditions. Subsequently, the applicability of these LnNPs for i) fabrication of security inks for printable QR codes, ii) design of self-referenced nanosensors for (micro)biologically relevant analytes, and iii) as NIR/SWIR luminescent reporters for optical imaging will be discussed.

Ensuring the trustworthiness of Digital Twins and facilitating informed decision-making necessitates a robust approach to Uncertainty Quantification (UQ). A suitable model-updating scheme is key in preserving the quality and robustness of simulation-based Digital Twins. Model bias, stemming from discrepancies between computational models and real-world systems, poses a significant challenge in achieving this goal. This study delves into the challenges posed by model bias within Bayesian updating of Digital Twins of bridges. Two alternative model bias identification methods —a modularized version of Kennedy and O’Hagan’s approach and another one based on Orthogonal Gaussian Processes — are evaluated in comparison with the classical Bayesian inference framework. A key innovation lies in the modification of the aforementioned approaches to incorporate additional information into the Digital Twin framework via the bias term. This enables the extension of the model non-intrusively, leveraging large pools of data inherent in Digital Twins. The study showcases the potential of this approach to correct predictions, quantify uncertainties, and enhance the system with previously untapped information. This underscores the importance of everaging available data within Digital Twins to identify deficiencies and guide potential future model improvements.

Their potential to increase the information obtained from limited data makes them an invaluable tool for a broad range of real-world applications. Nonetheless, there usually exists a discrepancy between the predicted response and the measurements of the system once built. One of the main contributors to this difference in addition to miscalibrated model parameters is the model error. Quantifying this socalled model bias (as well as proper values for the model parameters) is critical for the reliable performance of digital twins. Model bias identification is ultimately an inverse problem where information from measurements is used to update the original model. Bayesian formulations can tackle this task. Including the model bias as a parameter to be inferred enables the use of a Bayesian framework to obtain a probability distribution that represents the uncertainty between the measurements and the model. Simultaneously, this procedure can be combined with a classic parameter updating scheme to account for the trainable parameters in the original model. This study evaluates the effectiveness of different model bias identification approaches based on Bayesian inference methods. This includes more classical approaches such as direct parameter estimation using MCMC in a Bayesian setup, as well as more recent proposals such as stat- FEM or orthogonal Gaussian Processes. Their potential use in digital twins, generalization capabilities, and computational cost is extensively analyzed.

To achieve accurate representations, it is typically necessary to update model parameters based on observations collected from sensors or measurements of the physical asset. However, no model can fully capture the infinitely complex nature of reality. As a result, quantifying the uncertainty in model predictions is essential for reliable decision-making. Bayesian updating frameworks provide an appealing approach for parameter calibration, inherently accounting for such uncertainties. One often-overlooked source of error is model form uncertainty. This type of uncertainty arises from the fundamental discrepancies between the model and reality, stemming from the assumptions and simplifications made during model construction. Ignoring model form uncertainty can lead to overly confident predictions that fail to accurately reflect sensor observations. To address this, we propose an embedded model form uncertainty framework that attributes the model variability to a stochastic extension of the model's latent parameters. This approach enables the quantification of uncertainties that can be represented by a variation in the model parameters. Of particular interest are scenarios involving noisy observations or additional discrepancies that cannot be directly integrated into the model. By incorporating uncertainty through the parameters, this method not only quantifies uncertainty in predictions but also propagates model form uncertainty to other Quantities of Interest (QoI) that rely on the same model or its parameters. Consequently, QoI computations yield more reliable values, accounting for the potential uncertainties introduced by imperfect models during parameter updating. Moreover, this approach facilitates a more comprehensive statistical analysis of QoI distributions, offering deeper insights into the model's reliability and highlighting areas for potential improvement. By incorporating model form uncertainty, decision-makers can achieve a more robust and nuanced understanding of system behavior and prediction quality.

As virtual representations of physical systems, digital twins can provide a wealth of information that complements traditional inspection and monitoring data. By incorporating virtual sensors and predictive maintenance strategies, they have the potential to improve our understanding of the behavior and performance of bridges over time. However, as bridges age and undergo regular loading and extreme events, their structural characteristics change, often differing from the predictions of their initial design. Digital twins must be continuously adapted to reflect these changes. In this article, we present a Bayesian framework for updating simulation-based digital twins in the context of bridges. Our approach integrates information from measurements to account for inaccuracies in the simulation model and quantify uncertainties. Through its implementation and assessment, this work demonstrates the potential for digital twins to provide a reliable and up-to-date representation of bridge behavior, helping to inform decision-making for maintenance and management.

For an accurate representation of the bridge, the underlying models must be tuned to reproduce the real system. The updated model can be eventually used for the extension of the service life of the bridge based on an accurate description of the structure. Nevertheless, the necessary assumptions and simplifications in these models irremediably introduce discrepancies between measurements and model response. We will prove that quantifying the extent of the uncertainties generated by said discrepancies provides a better understanding of the real system, enhances the model updating process, and creates more robust and trustworthy digital twins. Among others, we identify that the inclusion of the explicit bias term through a Bayesian inference framework corrects the tuned parameters, allows the identification of non-prescribed noise sources and enables the introduction of additional information in the system without modifying the simulation model. The performance of selected model bias identification approaches will be compared in the context of digital twins of bridges. The different methods will be applied to a representative demonstrator case based on the Nibelungenbrücke of Worms. The findings from this work are englobed in the initiative SPP 100+, whose main aim is the extension of the service life of structures through monitorization and digitalization, especially through the implementation of digital twins.

To accurately reflect system behavior, these models require updates to their governing parameters based on system measurements. Bayesian inference methodologies are particularly attractive for this purpose, as they quantify parameter uncertainty. However, simulation models inherently exhibit discrepancies with observed measurements, as they cannot perfectly replicate the infinitely complex reality. Ignoring these discrepancies leads to overconfident estimations of the inferred posterior distributions, potentially centering around incorrect parameters. This issue affects the calculation of predictions and Quantities of Interest (QoIs), resulting in overly concentrated posterior distributions. The most common framework for incorporating model form uncertainty was developed by Kennedy and O’Hagan, which introduces a flexible discrepancy term that is inferred alongside model parameters. However, this approach does not preserve the physicality of the predictions nor facilitate the propagation of model form uncertainty to other QoIs. To address these limitations, Sargsyan proposed embedding the discrepancy term in the parameter formulation as a stochastic extension. This work demonstrates our own explainable framework for embedding model form uncertainties in the Bayesian system of complex engineering systems. Our framework emphasizes the interpretability of discrepancy terms, quantifies uncertainties for models with significant discrepancies relative to measurements and high noise levels, and fully propagates these uncertainties to QoIs for reliable statistical analysis. We apply this framework to a thermal compensation model for the structural health monitoring system of a bridge, illustrating its potential for enhancing decision-making in engineering applications.

T1 - Effects of laser surface processing under different atmospheres on the superconducting properties of pure niobium N2 - Niobium metal is the pure element with the highest superconducting critical temperature (T_c = 9.2 K), which is present in many applications. Particularly, in superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities of particle accelerators, the control of the surface characteristics of pure Nb is crucial, as the presence of defects may generate magnetic flux pinning that can increase by more than two orders of magnitude the surface critical current, ic. Several procedures such as chemical- or electro-polishing have been used aiming at cleaning surface contamination and decreasing its roughness. Sub-nanosecond lasers can be applied to generate a broad range of micro and nanostructures (e.g. Laser-Induced Periodic Surface Structures, LIPSS) that strongly modify the materials properties - as wettability, color, oxidation resistance or antibacterial behavior. In this work, we analyze a variety of surface structures generated on pure Nb sheets with different laser systems (UV, Vis and n-IR, fs and ps) by exploring a range of processing parameters. These include pulse overlap, irradiance or the effective number of pulses, under different atmospheres (air, N2, Ar, vacuum). The effects on Tc, critical currents and critical fields (Bc1, Bc2 and Bc3) have been obtained from magnetization, ac susceptibility and heat capacity measurements, revealing their dependence with the different surface nanostructures and the chemical changes generated with these laser treatments.

Hard carbons are promising candidates for high-capacity negative electrode materials in SIBs. Their high capacities, however, are often accompanied with high irreversible capacity losses during the initial cycles.[1] The goal of this project is to use analytical techniques to establish a correlation between the structure and the capacities of hard carbons. This has previously been difficult, in part because the sodium storage mechanism is not stoichiometric and due to the disordered structure of hard carbons. Large irreversible capacities associated with hard carbons are often in contradiction to the experimentally determined low surface area of the sample material.[1] A better understanding of the structure-property relationship should enable quantification and understanding of the potential of hard carbon materials for SIBs. Our approach is to explore whether a core-shell structure can separate sodium storage and solid electrolyte interphase formation so that storage capacity and irreversible losses can be investigated separately. The synthesis of a selection of porous carbon structures serving as the core material, will be attempted. Simultaneously, sodium-conducting shell structures will be developed to allow for separation of sodium ions and electrolyte molecules. Subsequently the combination of core and shell materials will be undertaken.

Despite their potential and extensive use, the storage mechanism is still under debate. The non-stoichiometric adsorption mechanism also means that the search for an upper limit for the reversible capacity is ongoing. There is a strong requirement for synthetic anodes that enable a better understanding of the theoretical capacity associated with HC-anodes. We have developed core-shell carbon anodes consisting of a highly porous carbon core and (almost) non-porous shell. Thus, the reversible capacity can be deconvoluted from irreversible capacity losses, arising from the formation of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). Moreover, the porosity of the carbon-core can be linked to the reversible capacities gained. A range of microporous activated carbons were coated via an optimized chemical vapour deposition technique.[1][2] These materials were characterised using a range of techniques including powder x-ray diffraction, small angle x-ray diffraction (SAXS), gas physisorption (N2, CO2) measurements and electrochemical characterisation at coin cell level. After coating, the material showed a significant reduction in detectable surface area (up to a factor of 192x) by N2-physisorption. The tailor-made shell allows the stable cycling of a carbon anode vs metallic Na-electrode in coin cells at room temperature. For the best performing material, the reversible capacity increased from 139 ± 2 mAhg-1 to 396 ± 2 mAhg-1 while irreversible capacity is decreased from 636 ± 3 mAhg-1 to 89 ± 3 mAhg-1 (see Figure 1). After initial stabilization, a CE of 99% was achieved. The coating technique was usefully applied to a range of materials. [3] The successful formation of core-shell structures with high capacities enables separation of the storage mechanism from SEI-formation. In turn a proposed calculation to rank the contributions of surface adsorption and pore filling capacity can be confirmed. The materials also create the opportunity to conduct a range of operando experiments (e.g., SAXS) that can shed further light on the sodium storage mechanism.

Even though carbon steel is commonly used as a construction material due to its machinability and economical reason, it is susceptible to uniform and localized corrosion in a high temperature and high pressure system. Therefore, a coating system is introduced to protect the carbon steel against corrosion in such environment. 1. Carbon steel is susceptible to uniform corrosion in presence of oxygen, with corrosion rate of immersion at 150 °C of 0.39 mm/a. 2. Exposure test of carbon steel at 150°C and 10 bar (pressurized by Ar) results in pitting corrosion with depth of 19 µm and width 4 µm on average. 3. OCP measurement shows that the stability of measurement is reached after 40 hours of immersion in the solution. 4. EIS measurement is useful to observe the effect of temperature, immersion time, and coating composition on the corrosion processes of coated metals for use in geothermal application.

Although the addition of polyaniline pigment in organic coatings has been an alternative for corrosion protection in industrial application, the protection mechanism is still not fully understood [2]. Herein in this study, as a part of the development of polyaniline/silicon dioxide coating for geothermal application, polyaniline has been deposited electrochemically on carbon steel surface and tested in geothermal solution to study the contribution of polyaniline in the corrosion protection of a polyaniline-based composite in the geothermal system. The electrochemical deposition was carried out by immersing carbon steel in 0.1 M oxalic acid and 0.05 M aniline, with the polarization potential of -0.6 – 1.5 V vs. Ag/AgCl, and a scan rate of 10 mV/s. To observe the surface/interface reaction between the electrolyte and electrode surface during the electrochemical polymerization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurement was applied after each cycle. For corrosion study in the geothermal application, this experiment used an artificial geothermal solution with the composition of 1,500 mg/l Cl-, 20 mg/l SO42-, 15 mg/l HCO3-, 200 mg/l Ca2+, 250 mg/l K+, and 600 mg/l Na+, and pH 4 to simulate a geothermal brine found in Sibayak, Indonesia. Electrochemical measurements were performed by monitoring the open circuit potential over seven days, with the interruption of EIS every 22 hours. The experiments were performed at room temperature and 150 °C (1 MPa) in a free oxygen environment. Polyaniline coated carbon steel is more durable in a room temperature environment compared to 150 °C, which could be caused by the iron oxalate dissolution at elevated temperature. This degradation was further proven by the impedance spectra, which showed a reduction of approximately ten times for specimens measured at 150 °C as compared to the specimens measured at room temperature.

Exposure tests showed that specimens with the addition of SiO2 particles and polyaniline particles exhibit better corrosion resistance than specimens with the addition of only polyaniline particles or binder only. 2. Open circuit potential measurements showed that in the beginning of the experiments, both coatings had an open circuit potential 100 mV higher than carbon steel. Within one day of immersion, the potential of carbon steel increased significantly, indicating the formation of oxide layer. After extended exposure the carbon steel potential sat between PS1 (which had higher potential) and PS2 (which had a lower potential) and all three were in the range –600 mV to –500 mV vs Ag/AgCl. 3. Both coatings PS-1 and PS-2 were degraded with increasing exposure time, shown by the decrease of absolute impedance value at low frequency range after 2, 4, and 6 days exposure. 4. Potentiodynamic test was performed after 3 hours and 6 days exposure, and it was shown that the coating in the initial stage exhibited more passive behavior than the specimens exposed for 6 days.

These fluids lead to corrosion in pipes and other parts of geothermal system construction and necessitate intense research efforts in finding new suitable materials. Carbon steel is susceptible to corrosion in geothermal brine especially when it is exposed to a high temperature and high-pressure medium, which is considered to be an aggressive environment. An artificial geothermal water, bas ed on a brine composition found in Indonesia, was used to investigate the performance of high alloyed materials. The electrolyte has pH 4 and contains 1,500 mg/l Cl-, 20 mg/l SO4 2-, 15 mg/l HCO3 -, 200 mg/l Ca 2+, 250 mg/l K+, and 600 mg/l Na+. In order to protect the bare material in geothermal application, it is necessary to either use high alloyed material s or coatings. In this research, a coating system consisting of polyaniline and silicon dioxide was investigated regarding its behavior to protect carbon steel. In detail, the effect of SiO2 and polyaniline (PANi) addition was evaluated by exposure and electrochemical tests for 7 days, i.e. electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and open circuit potential (OCP) at room temperature and 150 °C with 1 MPa pressure.
