C02-corrosion on piping steels might cause problems during injection of flue gases for their storage in deep geological aquifer fluids. Therefore, the selection of appropriate piping steels is a key factor to increase safety and reliability of the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology, and to keep the process cost-efficient.
Within the project COORAL (German acronym for “C02 purity for capture and storage”) corrosion studies on injection piping steels exposed to C02 and artificial brine with high Chloride concentration have been carried out. Corrosion of the injection pipe in C02-rich aquifer fluid may occur within the aquifer brine or when at injection interruptions the aquifer fluid may flow back into the injection pipe. Because of high salinity of aquifer brine and C02-corrosion an appropriate material ranking of injection piping steels should be made.
Corrosion resistance of steels 1.4034, 1.4021, 1.4542, 1.4162 and 1.4562 was investigated in a corrosive environment using electrochemical and metallographic techniques. Electrochemical experiments in order to investigate the surface corrosion kinetics and polarization measurements in order to investigate localized corrosion phenomena have been carried out. Critical pitting potentials and repassivation potentials were determined by polarization curves of investigated materials and compared with measured corrosion potentials. Measured values were used in order to determine the suitability and performance of tested steels in C02-injection conditions.
This contribution provides current findings regarding materials susceptibility for carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) applications. Basing on results gathered in 2 German long-term projects (COORAL and CLUSTER) suitable materials are introduced as well as dominating impurities of the CO2-stream and corrosion mechanisms. Investigations cover the whole CCUS process chain and provide material recommendations for certain parts.
The geological storage of carbon dioxide (Carbon Capture and Storage, CCS) in depleted gas reservoirs or in saline aquifers is a widely discussed issue. Carbon dioxide may induce corrosion on the piping steels during compression, transportation and injection. Therefore,
selection of appropriate piping steels is a key factor in order to increase the safety and reliability of the CCS technology, and to keep the processes cost-effective.
The here described subproject of the COORAL project (German acronym for “C02 purity for capture and storage”) deals with the levels of impurities in the C02 stream that will be acceptable when using specific steels. Material exposure to carbon dioxide (C02) containing
specific amounts of water vapor, oxygen (02) sulfur dioxide (S02), nitrogen dioxide (N02), carbon monoxide (CO) can be a challenge to steels. Within this subproject 13 different Steels are tested for suitability as materials used for compression, transportation and injection Units within the CCS chain.
