Metals in the marine environment

Corrosion behavior of metals and alloys in marine-industrial environment.

This work deals with atmospheric corrosion to assess the degrading effects of air pollutants on ferrous and non-ferrous metals and alloys, which are mostly used as engineering materials. An exposure study was conducted in the Tuticorin port area located on the east coast of South India, in the Gulf of Mannar with Sri Lanka to the southeast. Common engineering materials, namely mild steel, galva...

effect of trace metals levels in wastewater discharges, sediment and euchelus asper in kuwait marine environment

this study assesses the effect of major trace metals levels in wastewater discharges and sedimentfrom twenty four permanent and five semi-permanent wastewater drain outlets into the kuwait coast. theeffect of trace metals levels released from untreated wastewater discharges to euchelus asper, gastropod was also determined. results showed high trace metal levels in e. asper tissues, followed by ...

Deterioration of Concrete in Ambient Marine Environment (RESEARCH NOTE)

Structural concrete exposed to marine environment deserves special attention as the diffused sea salts chemically react with harden cement matrix and forms various expansive/leachable compounds leading to loss of material, strength, cracking, spalling etc. This study cover the effect of sea water on the specimens cast from two grades of concrete exposed to simulated marine environment over a ye...
