CO2-induced corrosion of casing and tubing steels is a relevant safety issue for compressing emission gasses into deep geological layers (CCS, Carbon Capture and Storage). The influence of CO2 and pressure of the surrounding media on steels is demonstrated in laboratory experiments providing a corrosive environment similar to a geological onshore CCS-site in the Northern German Basin (T = 60 °C, p = 1 - 100 bar, Stuttgart Aquifer, CO2-flow rate of 3 l/h, 7008000 h exposure time). Corrosion kinetics and microstructures were characterized using specimens of heat treated 42CrMo4 (1.7225, casing) and soft annealed X46Cr13 (1.4034, tubing).
Future coal power plants will in case of oxyfuel combustion be operated with altered atmospheres. Hence, corrosion attack might become more severe and steels have to be protected. An alumina-sol was used to coat X20CrMoV12-1 (X20) with alumina to test the protection. Testing was performed at 600 °C in flowing H2O–CO2–O2 and static laboratory air for 1000 h. Oxidation under air is minor compared to exposure in oxyfuel atmosphere. In both cases a multilayered oxide (hematite, magnetite, spinel) was formed on uncoated steels. Carburization appeared on uncoated X20 in H2O–CO2–O2. The coating demonstrates a high protection.
