T1 - Comparative study on high temperature oxidation of T92 steel in dry and wet oxyfuel environments N2 - Fireside oxidation of T92 steel was studied after exposure times up to 1000 h in the temperature range of 580–650 °C in simulated dry (CO2–27 % N2–2 % O2–1 % SO2) and wet (CO2–20 % H2O–7 % N2–2 % O2–1 % SO2) oxyfuel environments. Water vapour addition to the oxyfuel gas substantially increased the oxidation rate. The oxide scales developed under wet environment contained more defects, resulting in higher access of oxidants to the substrate material and enhanced oxidation. In addition, the oxide scales had lower chromium enrichment in the inner layer as compared to that in the dry condition. The oxide scales consisted of hematite and magnetite in the outer layer and a mixture of (Fe, Cr)-spinel, sulphides and wustite in the inner layer. The sulphur distribution differed between the oxide scales developed in dry and wet oxyfuel environments. Sulphur was mainly concentrated in the inner layer and at the oxide/alloy interface. In contrast to the wet oxyfuel gas, very high sulphur concentration was measured in the inner oxide scale formed in the dry oxyfuel gas. Additionally, Fe-sulphide was formed at the interface of inner and outer oxide layer in the wet condition.

T1 - High temperature oxidation behavior of 9-12 % Cr ferritic/martensitic steels in a simulated dry oxyfuel environment N2 - The materials in oxyfuel power plant will be subjected to CO2– and SO2–rich gases on the fireside. The oxidation behaviour of two 9–12 % Cr steels T92 and VM12 was studied under dry oxyfuel environment in the temperature range of 580–650 °C for up to 1,000 h. The oxide structure and morphology were analyzed using various experimental techniques. A complex temperature dependence of oxidation rate is observed for both T92 and VM12 whereby the oxidation rate decreased with increasing temperature. This is attributed to increased Cr-enrichment in the inner scale with increasing temperature. T92 and VM12 alloys are also susceptible to carburization in an oxyfuel environment.

T1 - Nano-sized precipitates in an Fe-13Cr alloy formed under oxidizing water vapor atmosphere N2 - Oxidation of a Fe –13Cr alloy under water vapor at 600°C produced a zone of nano-sized precipitation underneath the outside scale formed by iron oxides and Fe–Cr spinel. The majority of the spinel layer shows a fixed orientation relationship to the ferritic matrix: {1 0 0}α || {1 0 0}sp & <0 1 1>α || <0 0 1>sp . However, also the discovered precipitated particles are characterized by the same crystallographic orientation relationship to the respective ferritic parent grain. The habit of the precipitates is best described by a lath morphology with their main axis parallel to <1 0 0> of ferrite. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) in scanning electron microscope (SEM) have been applied to characterize the oxide layer in micrometer scale. The clearly smaller precipitates were subsequently investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Specimens have been prepared by focused ion-beam (FIB) milling at an area previously characterized by EBSD. They cover the ferritic base material, but mainly the precipitation zone and the Fe–Cr spinel layer. Energy filtered selected area diffraction (SAD) in the conventional (C)TEM and high-angle annular dark field (HAADF) imaging in the scanning (S)TEM mode were employed in the characterization of the specimens.

A1 - Kranzmann, Axel T1 - Simulation of Fe-Cr-X alloy exposed to an oxyfuel combustion atmosphere at 600 °C N2 - In coal-fired power plants using oxyfuel combustion process with carbon capture and sequestration, instead of air, a mixture of oxygen and recirculated flue gas is injected in the boiler. A series of steels were exposed to CO2-SO2-Ar-H2O gas mixtures at 600 °C for 1000 h to compare their high temperature corrosion behavior. During the corrosion process, carburization, decarburization and recrystallization were observed underneath the oxide scale depending on the gas mixture and alloy composition. The conditions that lead to carburization are not yet completely understood, but decarburization can be simulated using thermodynamic and kinetic models. In this work, the results of these simulations are compared with measured values for one of the alloys that displayed a decarburized region. Since the mobility of carbon in the scale is not known, two strategies were adopted: simulation of alloy-atmosphere contact; and estimation of the carbon flux to produce the observed decarburization. The second approach might give an insight on how permeable to carbon the scale is.

T1 - Evaluation of nano-sized internal oxidation in a Fe-13Cr alloy exposed to water vapor atmosphere N2 - The topotactic formation of nano-sized precipitates immediately under the internal oxide layer in a Fe-13Cr alloy exposed to oxidizing water vapor atmosphere was recently reported. The precipitates were identified as lath-shaped Fe-Cr spinel exhibiting a crystallographic orientation relationship with the ferritic matrix. The authors proposed that these precipitates could act as a precursor to the formation of the spinel layer observed in the adjacent part of the oxide scale.The occurrence of internal oxidation in Fe–Cr alloys subjected to similar conditions had been previously identified and directly correlated to the presence of water vapor. In the present work, we attempt to rationalize the processes occurring during the oxidation of this alloy through thermodynamic and kinetic analyses based on the CALPHAD approach, using the geometrical representation of phase equilibria and concepts developed to describe internal oxidation. The influence of water vapor on the mechanism and kinetics of formation of the nano-sized precipitates and its role in the overall oxidation process is also considered.
