3) Cathodic Protection Systems

 

3) Cathodic Protection Systems Cathodic protection (CP) is a method to prevent or significantly reduce corrosion on metal surfaces by making the protected metal act as a cathode in an electrochemical cell. This is achieved either with sacrificial anodes or with an impressed current from a controlled power source. Two main types: - Sacrificial anode systems: More chemically active metals (magnesium, zinc, or aluminum) are connected to the protected metal. The anode corrodes instead of the structure, providing corrosion protection. These are common for smaller installations and buried or partially buried structures. - Impressed current (ICCP) systems: A powered rectifier supplies direct current to inert anodes (such as graphite or mixed metal oxide). The current forces the protected metal to become the cathode, reducing its tendency to corrode. Suitable for large or complex structures, where coatings may be imperfect or currents are high. Key components: - Anodes (sacrificial or inert) and their bed or arrangement - A power source or rectifier for ICCP - Connection wiring and grounding - Reference electrodes or potentials sensors to monitor protection level - Protective coatings (paint, epoxy, or coating systems) to reduce current demand and enhance effectiveness - Control equipment and monitoring instrumentation How it works: - The metal surface is kept at a sufficiently negative potential relative to the surrounding soil or seawater. This shifts the electrochemical reaction away from oxidation, greatly reducing corrosion rates. - The system is designed and adjusted based on soil or water resistivity, coating condition, desired current density, and the geometry of the structure. Applications: - Buried pipelines, storage tanks, and ship hulls - Offshore platforms and subsea structures - Reinforced concrete elements exposed to chlorides Design considerations: - Soil or water resistivity and chemical environment - Integrity of protective coatings and cathodic protection design margin - Desired protection potential and current distribution - Monitoring for stray currents and interference from nearby structures - Maintenance: periodic measurements of potentials, verification of anode condition, and inspection of coatings Benefits and limitations: - Significant reduction in corrosion rates and extending service life - Requires proper design, installation, and ongoing monitoring - Sacrificial systems can be simpler but may need frequent anode replacement; ICCP systems offer flexible control but are more complex and costly In practice, CP is often integrated with coatings and regular monitoring to ensure the protected structure maintains the target potential and remains free from excessive corrosion.
