Anotection® Anodic Protection
Acid storage tanks, Piping & Acid Coolers
Anotection® - maximising acid purity by minimising iron contamination
Tank storage of Sulfuric Acid provides a critical link between production and consumption. But due to the corrosive nature of the acid, storage in carbon or stainless steel tanks will often result in hydrogen grooving, general corrosion and subsequent iron contamination. In order to maintain acid purity, Corrosion Service focuses on providing anodic protection design, engineering, supply and field services to Sulfuric Acid producers and consumers throughout the globe.
Anotection® is a proven technology developed by Corrosion Service in the early 1960’s. The electrochemical Anotection® system forms a protective film on the tank surface which is maintained by an electrical current. Anotection® is significantly more cost effective than linings, coatings and high alloys with well-maintained systems lasting in excess of 30 years.
