The Shandong Huaxing Petrochemical (Group) Co held some anti-corrosion training at its plant recently to improve equipment management, prolong the life of equipment and devices, and raise the management level. Department heads and major operators took part in the three-day session, where senior engineers with vast experience in anti-corrosion and water quality work at the Shengli oil refinery were on hand to conduct the training. They spoke about some basic facts on corrosion and theories, technology, choosing anti-corrosion devices. They went on to explain in detail, and through the use of illustrations, the corrosion of the pressure-relief, catalytic, hydrogenation, coking and sulfur devices, the various types of corrosion in the water circulating system, the parts that are most vulnerable, and choosing the proper materials for the devices. The participants were able to interact with the instructors who described their own work experience. This training session helped the employees gain a greater understanding of the devices and maintenance and ways to improve corrosion awareness and this, in turn, will help improve the monitoring and detection of corrosion of equipment in the future.
