Aufgrund der extremen Betriebsbedingungen in Geothermieanlagen des Norddeutschen Beckens ist die Werkstoffauswahl für ober- und untertägige Komponenten entscheidend für einen sicheren und zuverlässigen Betrieb. Im Rahmen der Werkstoffqualifizierung wurden mittels klassischer Auslagerung und elektrochemischen Untersuchungen an zwei hochlegierten Stählen deren Einsatzgrenzen für die Förderung von hochsalinarem Aquiferfluid der geothermischen Tiefbohrung in Groß Schönebeck ermittelt. Die Ergebnisse und daraus resultierende Schlussfolgerungen werden hier vorgestellt.
Within the last years the use of geothermal energy as feasible energy source has risen and is going to replace fossil fuel supply more and more. Nevertheless, Service conditions in geothermal facilities are due to the Chemical composition of hydrothermal fluids and temperatures, in many cases, extreme in terms of corrosion. Since the construction of geothermal power plants shall be economical with maximum life Service, materials selection based on preliminary material qualification is essential to guarantee a secure and reliable Operation ofthose facilities.
The materials selection depends on the location of a power plant respectively on the Chemical composition of the produced aquifer fluid. The duplex Steel is often used as allround solution not only for the construction of geothermal power plants, because of its combination of good mechanical and corrosion properties and its lower costs compared to other highly alloyed materials. But there are limits for the use of the duplex-steel 1.4462 regarding its corrosion behavior, with which this contribution deals.
The limitations of suitability of duplex steel 1.4462 in the geothermal fluids of Molasse Basin and Upper Rhine Graben obtained by means of electrochemical measurements and exposure tests are presented below. While 1.4462 in the artificial Molasse Basin Fluid shows an excellent corrosion resistance against pitting and uniform corrosion it presents low corrosion resistance in the artificial Upper Rhine Graben Fluid due to the difference in salinity. Besides it shows a limited corrosion resistance concerning crevice corrosion.
