posted on 2012-11-21, 11:47 authored by Christian ChristodoulouElectrochemical treatment methods have been used to arrest corrosion and protect the serviceable
life of a structure. This paper analyses the corrosion initiation mechanisms, the chemical reactions taking
place at the steel interface and the transportation process. The available options are briefly discussed and their
advantages and disadvantages examined. The conclusions drawn, focus on the current practice and how the
discussed electrochemical treatments can be used to optimize performance.
