Description
Summary:During the Workshop on Corrosion in SCWO Systems held at MIT in 1993 the attendees recognized the potential for corrosion to restrict the commercialization of SCWO for aggressive waste streams. At that time, the group consensus was that a material of fabrication universally applicable to all sections of a SCWO system was extremely unlikely [8]. As presented in this review, while the database for the potential materials of fabrication for SCWO systems has increased significantly since then, the group consensus apparently still holds. The corrosion of the materials of fabrication remains a serious concern and a significant amount of research remains to be carried out to identify materials or methods to reduce degradation within all sections to an acceptable level.
