Modern CO2-reduced power plants with Oxyfuel-Combustion operate with gas compositions of high CO2 partial pressure and steam (Boiler, Recycling). The corrosion
process occurring under such service conditions is different from that under current conditions with air combustion. The effect of temperature, pressure, chromium
content on the corrosion reaction of typical power plant steels in CO2-H2O and CO2-H2O-O2 was investigated.
Experimental Oxidation
For experimental tests a pressure-oxidation-simulation-machinery for tubes H2O-CO2 H2O-CO2
was used. During the experimental procedure, an axial temperature gradient of
500-650 C was applied to the pressure loaded tubes, which causes a corrosion
process at the inner and the outer tube surface. The investigated steels differing
mainly in chromium content (Table 1). Corrosion tests were carried out in H2O-CO2

Analysis
On every oxidized samples, 800 individual measuring points with light microscopy H2O-CO2 H2O-CO2-O2
were summarized to give a good accuracy of scale thickness. The diffusion of
carbon was observed by a high resolution microprobe given carburization depths.
