    Steam-Methane Reforming (SMR) is one of the most economical ways to produce hydrogen from natural gas. Steam reforming industry is hugely relied on using supercritical power plant where the working temperature of the plant must exceed 600 °C. Along with the high operating temperature, the situation promotes the acceleration of high temperature oxidation. This will cause fouling and spalling of oxide scales at the boiler tube. Eventually, fouling will reduce heat transfer between the tube and steam generated, causing a higher temperature is needed to produce steam. Until now, the only approach used by the industry is to manually replace the corroded boiler tube. Other than that, many studies have been conducted on the behavior of boiler tubes at temperatures exceeding 800 °C. However, to our knowledge, no study has been done to investigate the air electrolyte substrate interfacial electrochemical reaction at high temperature. This project was carried out to investigate the corrosion potential of T91 boiler tube at 650 °C for 2 h, 8 h, and 12 h, measure the current density (Icorr) by calculating corrosion potential (Ecorr) value using Tafel Extrapolation and determine the oxidation potential of oxygen gas at 650 °. The oxide layer thickness at exposed temperature was determined to measure the oxidation kinetics. The study concludes that there was an increase of 8.49% in current conductivity between the blank experiment and T91 alloy oxidation potential test. The oxidation process was following the parabolic rate law which manifest that the corrosion is controlled by ionic diffusivity in the oxide layer. The oxide layer formed on the sample has an average thickness of 54.10 μm and this value can be used to calculate the oxidation kinetics of the sample using parabolic rate constant, Kp, resulting with the value of 6.78 × 10−14 m2/s.

    Steam plays a significant role in the reforming process of hydrogen. It is generated in a waste heat recovery unit at temperature of 650 ℃. Along with the high operating temperature, the situation promotes acceleration of high temperature oxidation. This will cause fouling and spalling of oxide scales at the boiler tube. Eventually, fouling will reduce heat transfer between the tube and steam generated, causing a higher temperature is needed to produce steam. Until now, the only approach used by the industry is to manually replace the corroded boiler tube. Other than that, many studies have been conducted on the behavior of boiler tubes at temperatures exceeding 800 °C. However, to our knowledge, no “in-situ” study has been done to investigate the high temperature electrochemistry aspect of boiler tubes. A review conducted by B.A Pint [1] in his paper mentioned that it is notoriously difficult to imitate the harsh environments in laboratory scale. Popov [2] stated that the only available method to decrease corrosion rate at high temperature corrosion and hot corrosion is only by implementing protective coatings. This project was carried out to investigate the corrosion potential of T91 boiler tube at 650 °C for 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 8 h, and 12 h, measure the current density (Icorr) by calculating corrosion potential (Ecorr) value using Tafel Extrapolation and determine the current conductivity of oxygen gas at 650 ℃. Apart from that, the oxide layer thickness at exposed temperature is also determined to measure the oxidation kinetics. The study concludes that there was an increase of 8.49% in current conductivity between the blank experiment and T91 alloy conductivity test. The oxide layer formed on the sample is significant to calculate the oxidation kinetics of the sample using parabolic rate constant (Kp), resulting with the value of 6.78 × 10–14 m2s−1.

    Corrosion is a metallurgical problem that occurs frequently in a power plant, plant inevitable, especially in the present days, since higher efficiency of a power plant is required and thus the process temperature is increasing. Choosing the right materials for pipeline is very crucial since it is affecting the service life and operational reliability. The research is done to study the oxidation behaviour of ferritic alloy for power plant. A failed component from a gas combined cyclic thermal power plant was received and a failure analysis is done to investigate the cause of failure of the equipment. Results from the analysis suggested that the pipe was exposed to high temperature oxidation and metal dusting. Metal dusting mechanism and how it affects materials in high temperature condition is then identified and explained in this work.
