Corrosion, Metallurgy & InspectionIntroduction
This course will cover the properties of materials, theory of corrosion, types of corrosion, and preventative measures (likely locations, inspection and monitoring techniques, variables affecting corrosion). You will also learn about corrosion monitoring, structural damage mechanisms, degradation of materials in-service conditions, and types of failure.
In addition, the course will look at basic electrical theory associated with corrosion, inspection techniques and the application of conventional ultrasonic methods.
Objective
Audience
Candidates who intends taking certification- For those interested in learning fitness for service of plant and equipment- for Managers and staff interested in health safety and environment of unintended plant failure-for planning Managers interested in MRO and plant maintenance and know all about inspection and monitoring
This five day intensive Short Course is intended for Engineers, Technicians, Managers, Supervisors, Salespersons, Inspectors, Anyone needing a basic understanding of corrosion.
This is a value added package with practical, test papers, quiz etc
Content
Corrosion
The need for corrosion awareness
The cost of corrosion
Why metals and materials deteriorate
The impact of environment
The school textbook definition of corrosion
The modern definition of corrosion
The atomic theory
Setting up a corrosion cell in the lab.
Why different materials react in different ways and rates
More definitions of corrosion – spontaneous, unseen, irreversible
The mistaken common notion, anode, cathode
Polarization – the slowing down process
Tafel’s slope – a clue to control corrosion
Understanding corrosion – forms – causes –soil, water ,bacteria, atmosphere, gases and vapours, and steam-operating conditions as pressure, temperature, velocity, stress, product input variations
Avoidance and control of each – explained through
Case studies.
Four-way method of controlling corrosion

Certificate
MAESTRO CONSULTANTS Certificate of Completion for delegates who attend and complete the training course.
Methodology
Our courses are highly interactive, typically taking a case study approach that we have found to be an effective method of fostering discussions and transferring knowledge. Participants will learn by active participation during the program through the use of individual exercises, questionnaires, team exercises, training videos and discussions of “real life” issues in their organizations.
The material has been designed to enable delegates to apply all of the material with immediate effect back in the workplace.
