Advances in Analytical Features of Electrochemical Methods for the Analysis of Complicated Real Samples
Author: Masoud Fouladgar
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832553737
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 88
Book Description
One of the challenges in Analytical chemistry is the analysis of complicated real samples. Analytical methods commonly suffer from interference and several limitations for the analysis of these samples. These limitations may be due to inherent problems of method or the nature of the sample matrix. Although electrochemical methods have several advantages, they are not exempt from this rule. Different parameters should be investigated to improve electrochemical methods for the analysis of real samples, selectivity being the most important. Inherent selectivity of dynamic electrochemical techniques is achieved when the analyte reacts in different values of applied parameters compared to potentially interfering species. In other words, the choice of applied parameter (e.g. potential in voltammetry) determines the selectivity of the measurement.

Corrosion Monitoring in Nuclear Systems EFC 56
Author: Stefan Ritter
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 135145773X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
Corrosion remains one of the key issues affecting the performance and availability of nuclear power plants. Therefore, reliable in-plant corrosion monitoring methods are essential both for the future operation of existing plants and to ensure the safety of future nuclear waste disposal systems. In two parts, this book was stimulated by a workshop organised by EFC Working Party 4 on Nuclear Corrosion and the European Cooperative Group on Corrosion Monitoring of Nuclear Materials (EGC-COMON). The first part deals mainly with research into the detection of stress corrosion crack initiation in nuclear power plant environments (essentially high temperature water at around 300 °C) by various methods, particularly the electrochemical noise technique but also including the electrochemical impedance, acoustic emission and direct current potential drop methods. The second part addresses the goal to develop in-situ techniques and includes examples of the application of electrochemical corrosion potential monitoring. This book will be of particular interest to scientists and engineers concerned with the mitigation of corrosion in nuclear systems.

Sulphur-Assisted Corrosion in Nuclear Disposal Systems
Author: Damien Féron
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000107116
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 190
Book Description
In the different disposal concepts for high-level nuclear waste, corrosion of the metallic barriers and in particular the overpack/container is a major issue. It is imperative for performance assessment to predict the lifetime of these containers. In the lifetime prediction of metallic barriers for the disposal of high level nuclear waste (HLW) or of spent fuel, the presence of (reduced) sulphur species is an issue of growing importance, as the sulphur species are involved in localised corrosion phenomena. The international workshop on Sulphur-Assisted Corrosion in Nuclear Waste Disposal Systems (SACNUC2008) aimed to provide an exchange of information on the influence of sulphur species on the corrosion of metallic barriers. This workshop was a co-organisation of the Belgian Nuclear Research Centre, SCK*CEN, and the Belgian Agency for the Management of Radioactive Waste and Enriched Fissile Materials, ONDRAF/NIRAS, under the auspices of the European Federation of Corrosion (EFC event N 311). The proceedings are divided into five chapters: Chapter 1 provides a general overview of the disposal concepts of nuclear waste and the role of corrosion. Chapter 2 explains the mechanism of sulphur-induced corrosion processes. This chapter also contains information from outside the nuclear disposal field in which sulphur is known to act as a detrimental factor (e.g. oil and gas industry). Chapter 3 addresses the role of microbial processes in sulphur-assisted corrosion. Chapter 4 covers the modelling of sulphide-assisted corrosion. Chapter 5 is devoted to a panel discussion aiming to identify open issues in the investigation of sulphur-assisted corrosion phenomena and how to incorporate these in robust lifetime prediction of metallic barriers.
