Cathodic Protection Design
Description:
Cathodic Protection (CP) is a critical technique for preventing corrosion in metallic structures exposed to harsh environments. This comprehensive course provides a structured approach to CP design, covering fundamental principles, system components, and advanced design techniques. Participants will begin by understanding corrosion mechanisms, electrochemical principles, and the factors influencing CP effectiveness. The course then delves into the design, calculation, and implementation of CP systems for various applications, including pipelines, storage tanks, offshore structures, and reinforced concrete. Through hands-on case studies, attendees will explore real-world challenges and solutions in CP design. Advanced topics such as simulation software, field testing, troubleshooting, and integration with other corrosion control methods will enhance practical knowledge. The program also addresses regulatory compliance, safety considerations, and project management aspects to ensure effective CP implementation. By the end of the course, participants will have gained the expertise to design, evaluate, and optimize CP systems for long-term asset protection and reliability.
