Abstract

Efforts to avoid low‐temperature hydrogen attack at a new fluid catalytic cracking unit of the Richfield Oil Corporation, Wilmington, Calif., have been successful as a result of corrosion prevention in the design stage and corrosion control during operation. When the unit was shut down recently after more than a year of successful and continuous operation it was found to be in excellent condition. The following is the first half of a paper presented before the American Petroleum Institute's Refining Division last year and before the National Institute of Corrosion Engineers' Annual Meeting this year. The authors describe the different forms of hydrogen damage and the prevention steps that were taken. Preliminary evaluation by hydrogen probes, painted‐can tests and chemical analyses were employed to detect any hydrogen penetration taking place before the routine shut‐down enabled
