SUMMARY:London Branch March technical talk – “Flint Water Crisis – Corrosion\, Management and Politics” (In person/Online)
DESCRIPTION:The March technical talk\,“Flint Water Crisis – Corrosion\, Management and Politics”\, by Dr Ben Moorhouse.The meeting will be held at the Lancaster Hall Hotel\, 35 Craven Terrace\, London W2 3EL\, and streamed online for those who can not attend in person. \nThe town Flint\, Michigan suffered one of the worst water crisis in the United States of America\, when in 2014 the tap water supply began to be poisoned with corrosion products and other toxins. Hundreds of thousands of Flint residents were exposed to dangerous levels of lead and outbreaks of Legionnaires disease that caused deaths and long term health problems. This talk will focus on the decisions that led to this outcome\, the corrosion engineering around ensuring safe water sources and the importance of ensuring a greater understanding of corrosion issues in relation to environmental issues. \nBen Moorhouse is a materials\, corrosion and inspection engineer with a decade’s worth of experience involved with various engineering projects and operations. He studied at Imperial College and completed a PhD focusing on thermodynamic processes to remove impurities from titanium alloys. As part of his day to day\, he is Chairperson of the London Branch of the Institute of Corrosion\, a Fellow of the Institute of Materials\, Minerals and Mining (IOM3) and a Chartered Engineer. He is excited by the engineering challenges to come with delivering stable and low carbon energy\, as well as focusing on improving diversity and inclusion in Science Technology and Mathematics (STEM). \nTo join the meeting online follow the link \nIf you have any questions email icorrlondon@gmail.com \n

SUMMARY:The Welding Institute - London Branch Meeting
DESCRIPTION:In-person and online meeting \nAn insight into development and testing of pipeline steels at ArcelorMittal; covering metallurgy\, welding and properties testing \nThis presentation will give some examples of work performed at ArcelorMittal Global R&D research centre in Ghent (Belgium) for linepipe steels from coil. The work is designed to give modern linepipe steels the required combination of properties that make them suitable for use in critical oil and gas applications. The talk will include discussion of metallurgical mechanisms\, weldability for submerged arc and GMAW welding and the influence of forming operations on tensile and toughness properties. \nWe are fortunate that Christoph is coming over specifically to talk to us and this talk will merit attendance in person. Given by Christoph Gerritsen Senior Project Engineer ArcelorMittal Global R&D Gent/OCAS NV Christoph Gerritsen holds an MSc in Materials Science & Engineering with a specialisation in welding from Delft University of Technology. He started his professional career in 1999 at TWI Ltd\, working on high power laser materials processing. In 2005\, he moved to ArcelorMittal Global R&D Gent in Belgium as a senior project engineer. Here\, he runs welding projects covering a very wide range of industrial applications and welding processes\, mostly for C-Mn steels. \nRefreshments from 5:30 and Buffet to follow \nLocation: The York Room\, Lancaster Hall Hotel\, 35 Craven Terrace\, London Lunite.\nThe hotel is five minutes walk from Lancaster Gate Underground Station \nPlease register for either in-person or for online attendance. https://theweldinginstitute.com/events

SUMMARY:Aberdeen Branch Event - ICorr Technical Event
DESCRIPTION:Company / Speaker: University of Manchester / Dr.  Robert Lindsay\nZoom Event – More Information to follow \nCorrosion Inhibition: Separating Fact from Fiction \nFor more than a century\, surface-active organic species have been employed to control the corrosion of metals/alloys.  Given suitable selection\, such corrosion inhibitors have proven to be highly effective\, preventing significant degradation of metallic substrates even in highly aggressive environments.  Nevertheless\, there are still considerable gaps in fundamental knowledge of corrosion inhibitor functionality\, severely restricting further innovation.  For example\, corrosion inhibition in acidic solutions is widely reported to be the result of the adsorption of a monolayer of surface-actives.  This description\, however\, can be considered to be largely a cartoon\, as there is a significant lack of supporting experimental evidence.  Many key details remain uncertain\, including the surface chemistry of the inhibited substrate\, the structure of the adsorbed layer\, and even its surface coverage.  Such information is key input for researchers attempting to predict corrosion inhibitor functionality through atomic scale interfacial modelling\, and so identify next generation chemistries \nIn this presentation\, following an introduction to corrosion inhibition in acidic solutions\, I will discuss effort to reveal details of corrosion inhibitor-substrate interactions through detailed interface characterisation.  For example\, I will discuss recent X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results\, indicating that the chemistry of the inhibited interface is dependent on both inhibitor concentration and acid identity.  In addition\, I will present data demonstrating that surface adsorption is not always sufficient for achieving the target corrosion inhibition efficiency\, i.e. it will be shown that a surface-active can be bound to the surface\, but not lead to sufficient reduction in corrosion rate.  Moreover\, I will use XPS data to argue that the widely adopted approach of determining the standard Gibbs energy of adsorption of a corrosion inhibitor from measured inhibitor efficiencies is flawed\, and so should not be relied upon as a tool for corrosion inhibitor selection
