Materials for Geothermal Steam Utilization at Higher Temperatures and Pressure
ABSTRACT Materials used in high temperature/pressure geothermal steam can be subjected to corrosion due to the aggressiveness of the geothermal fluid and non-condensable gasses such as hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), chloride ions (Cl -) and hydrogen fluoride (HF). Icelandic Dee...
