  2. Corrosion test of candidate steels and alloys for biomass combustion • Laboratory test in model environment (presented in the NGBW conference in Milan) • Field test on 5 different types of biomass combustion(co-combustion) boilers

  3. Test samples - cuts of tubes from candidate materialsfixed on the bar made from AISI 310 steel. Uncooled samples were installed into boilers.

  9. Analysis of deposit Deposit was taken from the location of samples (scratched off from the surface of overheating tubes). Analysis of elements was carried out by EMPA analyzer, most important is the content of Cl (chlorides) and S.

  15. Evaluation Weight changes of test samples were evaluated during the down - time of boilers. On diagrams are corrosion curves, corrosion rate is depending on kind of biomass and temperature.

  16. Martensitic and austenitic steels have the equal corrosion resistance in both temperatures, corrosion resistance of low alloy steels is unacceptable. The best corrosion resistance have Ni-base alloys

  17. High alloy martensitic and austenitic steels and Ni-base alloys have very good corrosion resistance.

  18. At temperature 540 °C - low alloy steels + martensitic steel T92 have very low corrosion resistance At temperature 580 °C - corrosion resistance of low alloy + both martensitic steels is very low - the effect of Cl+S The best – austenitic steels and Ni-base alloys

  19. Only Ni-base alloys and austenitic steels have good corrosion resistance Good corrosion resistance of all test materials - low temperature

  20. Evaluation of corrosion rate Corrosion rate of low alloy steels has the linear character and the weight changes of samples are much higher as compared to other test materials (except of DalkiaKrnov) . Austenitic steels and Ni-base alloys have the best corrosion resistance and the weight changes are very low in all cases. The behaviour of martensitic steels is different and depends on the combustion atmosphere in boiler (deposit): * In atmosphere with higher content of S (no Cl) -martensitic steels have very good corrosion resistance - similar to austenitic steels and Ni-base alloys (BiocelPaskov, Mondi Štětí). * Different situation is in atmosphere with Cl (Třebíč) and Växjö(Cl + S), the corrosion resistance of martensitic steels is low and issimilar to low alloy steels (except X20CrMoV12 1 at lowertemperature540 °C Växjö).

  21. Mechanism of corrosion EPMA microanalysis and metallography were used for the study of corrosion mechanism.

  23. Mechanism of initiation and growth of inner • oxidic layer • Initiation - attack of carbide particles distributed on grain boundaries and equally distributed in matrix - transformation to oxides (with S, Cl) . • Documentation of this mechanism is shown on steel 10CrMo9 10 • boiler Paskov (mainly sulphidation) • boiler Växjö (combination of S and Cl corrosion).

C O N C L U S I O N • Tests of candidate materials with uncooled samples from low alloy, martensitic and A-steels and two Ni-base alloys show the effect of: • corrosion atmosphere (content of sulphates, chlorides in deposit) • temperature (temperature of combustion gases) • Metallographic analysis demonstratestheinitiationofcorrosion on carbideparticlesand selective corrosionof thesurface with corrosion along grain boundaries in all test materials at higher temperatures (over 500°C). In corrosion products O, Cl and S werefound, andpenetrationofCr, W, Mo, Ni from basic materialwasanalysed (depending on chemicalcompositionofmaterial) • Austenitic steels and Ni-base alloys have very good corrosionresistance with thin corrosion layer. In low alloy steels and martensitic steels (except of lower temperatures on DalkiaKrnov boiler) high corrosion rate with thick corrosion layer was observed.
