During the compression of emission gasses into deep geological layers (Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage, CCS) CO2-corrosion will become a relevant safety issue. The reliability of the steels used at a geological onshore CCS-site in the Northern German Bassin 42CrMo4 (1.7225, AISI 4140) used for casing, and the injection pipe steels X46Cr13 (1.4034, AISI 420 C), X20Cr13 (1.4021, AISI 420 J) as well as X35CrMo17 (1.4122) is demonstrated in laboratory experiments. Samples were kept in a synthetic aquifer environment at T = 60 °C. This corrosive environment is then saturated with technical CO2 at a flow rate of 3 l/h. Microstructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction, light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis, after a series of heat treatments (700 h to 2 years). The non-linear isothermal surface corrosion behaviour of the steels reveals surface corrosion rates around 0.10.8 mm/year, when obtained by mass gain. Severe pit corrosion (pit heights ca. 4.5 mm) are only located on the injection pipe steels. Main phases of the continuous scales are siderite FeCO3 and goethite α-FeOOH. The formation of the non-protective layer is likely to form via a
transient Fe(OH)2-phase.
Crack growth tests have been performed at 950 °C with Single Edge Notch specimens of the Ni-based single crystal superalloy PWA1483. In particular, several orientations and frequencies have been investigated, thus allowing the assessment of the influence of these parameters on the crack growth rate. In addition, oxidation experiments have been carried out to characterize the kinetics of the outer oxide scale growth at the same temperature.
On the other side, crack growth has been simulated with the Finite Element program ABAQUS in real test conditions by the node release technique. The nodes are released according to the measured crack growth rate.
The simulation results are compared with the test results on the basis of the computed Crack Tip Opening Displacement (CTOD). For this purpose, the crack is propagated until a stabilized value of the CTOD is obtained. This is usually the case when the crack has crossed the initial plastic zone. The procedure provides an evaluation of the effects of cycle frequency, crystal orientation, plasticity and oxide induced crack closure.
The oxidation behaviour of single crystal PWA 1483 at 950 °C was investigated by means of XRD, SEM and EDS. The parabolic oxidation behaviour, as defined by mass gain and the respective oxide layer thicknesses, is characterized by a parabolic rate constant of about 4 × 10-6 mg²/(cm4 × s) and the formation of a multi-layered oxide scale. An outer scale contains a Ti-bearing thin film composed of TiO2 and NiTiO3 but mostly Cr in Cr2O3 and (Ni/Co)Cr2O4 besides NiTaO4. This outer scale is connected to a discontinuous layer of Al2O3 and an area of γ?'-depletion within the base material.
In corrosive environments such as CCS bore holes or geothermal power plants the materials loaded cyclically are also exposed constantly to the highly corrosive hot thermal water. The lifetime reduction of (X46Cr13, AISI 420C) is demonstrated in in-situ-laboratory experiments (T=60 °C, geothermal brine: Stuttgart Aquifer flow rate: 9 Nl/h, CO2). S-N plots, micrographic-, phase-, fractographic- and surface analysis were applied to obtain sustainable information on the corrosion fatigue behavior. Maximum number of cycles (here 12.5 x 106 cycles to failure) is reached at σa =173 MPa. No typical fatigue strength exists and passive corrosion fatigue is most likely failure cause.
CO2-corrosion of injection pipe steels is a relevant safety issue when emission gasses are compressed in deep geological layers (CCS). The reliability of the steels used at the geological onshore CCS-site at Ketzin, Germany, is demonstrated in laboratory experiments under an equivalent corrosive environment (T=60 °C,p=1-60 bar, aquifer water, CO2-flow rate of 3 l/h, 700 h8000 h heat treatment). Corrosion kinetics and microstructures were characterized using samples of the heat treated steel 1.7225 (AISI 4140, 42CrMo4) used for casing, and samples of the martensitic stainless injection-pipe steel 1.4034 (AISI 420, X46Cr13).
When emission gasses are compressed into deep geological layers (CCS) CO2-corrosion of injection pipe steels is a relevant safety issue. The reliability of the steels used at the geological onshore CCS-site at Ketzin, Germany, is demonstrated in 2 years laboratory experiments under an equivalent corrosive environment at ambient pressure (T=60 °C, aquifer water, CO2-flow rate of 3 l/h). Corrosion kinetics and microstructures were characterized using samples of the heat treated steel 42CrMo4 (casing), and samples of the martensitic stainless steel X46Cr13 (injection).
In engineering storage sites for Carbon Sequestration the CO2-induced corrosion of injection pipe steels is a relevant safety issue when emission gasses are compressed in deep geological layers. The reliability of the steels suitable for the geological onshore CCS-site (Carbon Capture and Storage) at Ketzin, Germany, is demonstrated in laboratory experiments in equivalent corrosive environment (T = 60 °C, p = 160 bar, aquifer water, CO2-flow rate of 3 L/h, 7008000 h exposure time). Corrosion kinetics and microstructures were characterized using specimens of the heat treated steel 42CrMo4 (1.7225) used for casing, and specimens of the martensitic stainless injection-pipe steel X46Cr13 (1.4034).
Unusual Corrosion Behavior of 1.4542 Exposed a Laboratory Saline Aquifer Water CCS-Environment
(2017)
Differently heat treated coupons of 1.4542 were kept at T=60 °C and ambient pressure as well as p=100 bar for 700 h - 8000 h in an a) water saturated supercritical CO2 and b) CO2-saturated synthetic aquifer environment similar to on-shore CCS-sites in the Northern German Basin. Surface corrosion layers are homogeneous but unusually discontinuously ellipsoidal. After 8000 h at 100 bar maximum corrosion rate in the liquid phase is approximately 0.014 mm/year, with normalizing providing best corrosion resistance and approximately 0.003 mm/year in the supercritical phase where hardening+tempering at 670 °C leads to lowest corrosion rates.
Potential of martensitic stainless steel X5CrNiCuNb 16-4 as pipe steel in corrosive CCS environment
(2017)
Pipe steels suitable for carbon capture and storage technology (CCS) require resistance against the corrosive environment of a potential CCS-site (heat, pressure, salinity of the aquifer, CO2-partial pressure). X5CrNiCuNb16-4 has been proven to be sufficient resistant in corrosive environments, but shows rather unusual corrosion behaviour in CCS environment. Therefore differently heat treated coupons of 1.4542 were kept at T=60 °C and ambient pressure as well as p=100 bar for 700 h - 8000 h in an a) water saturated supercritical CO2 and b) CO2-saturated synthetic aquifer environment similar to on-shore CCS-sites in the Northern German Basin. Additionally fatigue tests were performed via push-pull tests with a series of 30 specimens was tested at stress amplitudes between 150 MPa and 500 MPa (sinusoidal dynamic test loads, R=-1; resonant frequency ~ 30 Hz). Best corrosion resistance in the liquid phase is achieved via normalizing prior to exposure and hardening+tempering at 670 °C leads to lowest corrosion rates in the supercritical phase. With no regard to atmosphere discontinuously ellipsoidal surface corrosion regions appear after exposure of 4000 h and more. The endurance limit of X5CrNiCuNb16-4 measured in air is reduced by more than 50% when exposed to CCS environment (maximum number of cycles (10 x 106) at a stress amplitude of 150 MPa) The scatter range TN = 1:34 is disproportionately large contributing to an overall unusual corrosion behaviour.
First year students especially with migration background and language deficiencies rate material science in mechanical engineering as one of the fundamental courses with high work load and necessity of language skills due to the descriptive nature of the course. Therefore a blended learning course structure using based on inverted classroom teaching scenarios was established. Heart of the self-study period are visualizing peer-to-peer lecture films supported by micro-lectures along with various online teaching materials. Although students with migration background generally scored lower in tests due to the lack of language skills improved learning outcomes are demonstrated in high quality class discussions and in overall understanding. This paper introduces the learning structure and graded activities, evaluates the course and compares results of native German-speaking students to those of students with migration background.
