Description

This technical committee report describes the state of the art regarding alkaline carbonate stress corrosion cracking (ACSCC) experiences in certain sour waters found in petroleum refining plants. This report outlines where ACSCC has occurred in process equipment in petroleum refining service, the refining community's current theory(ies) on the conditions and mitigation techniques that may have an impact on this type of damage, and analytical and inspection techniques that have been used to address the issue.

The main focus of this report is on fluidized catalytic cracking units (FCCUs) and light ends recovery systems and associated sour water processing equipment where the majority of the damage has been reported. The technical committee has also chosen to include ACSCC in sour water stripper (SWS) units. This report is intended to provide the refining industry with a resource for current information that is available on ACSCC.

The main sections of this report include:
