SupercriMcal Water OxidaMon: The Problem
• More than 23,000 tons of chemical agent stockpiled in the continental U.S. • A significant (but unknown) quantity of non-stockpiled waste. • DOE needs to clean up of in excess of 160,000 m3 of mixed waste
• Traditional disposal methods (landfill, incineration) face public opposition. • A safe, efficient, and economical waste destruction methodology is needed.
![Page 7: The$University$of$Alberta$...The$University$of$Alberta$ The$Mackiw$Lecture$in$Metallurgy$ Corrosion$Science,$Corrosion$Engineering$and$$ NewTechnologies$ R.M.$Latanision$ Corporate$Vice$President](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042119/5e98f2a1a66d425c4c007d76/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SCWO -‐ A Promising Technology
• SCWO is demonstrably capable of destroying organic wastes.
• Many wastes are high in potenMally corrosive precursors (Cl, F, S).
• Precursors can be oxidized to acidic products and may result in corrosion.
OxidaMon of Sarin (GB) produces hydrofluoric and phosphoric acids.
OxidaMon of VX results in sulfuric and phosphoric acids.
OxidaMon of mustard (HD) produces hydrochloric and sulfuric acids.

Corrosion problems in SCWO systems
Iron-‐Base Alloys • Alloys such as 316-‐L may be acceptable for innocuous feed streams. • Processing would need to be restricted to minimal Cl.
Nickel-‐Base Alloys • Used during fabricaMon of a number of bench-‐scale and pilot plant
reactors. • May not be suitable for aggressive untreated feeds (dealloying,
pi_ng, SCC) • If no salt precipitate -‐ worst corrosion at high subcriMcal temperature. • For complex acidic condiMons -‐ SCC of I-‐625 at sub-‐ but not at
supercriMcal. • But SCC also seen at supercriMcal aaer extended Mmes (300 hours). • Apparent correlaMon between Cr content and corrosion resistance.
![Page 14: The$University$of$Alberta$...The$University$of$Alberta$ The$Mackiw$Lecture$in$Metallurgy$ Corrosion$Science,$Corrosion$Engineering$and$$ NewTechnologies$ R.M.$Latanision$ Corporate$Vice$President](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042119/5e98f2a1a66d425c4c007d76/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Corrosion problems in SCWO systems
Titanium-‐Base Alloys • There is some confusion in the literature as to corrosion behavior of
Mtanium. • Preliminary tests of Ti indicated acceptable resistance to chlorinated
feeds. • Reportedly Ti provides outstanding performance at subcriMcal
temperatures. • Is as resistant as the Ni alloys at supercriMcal temperatures. • Through-‐wall pi_ng of liners was seen during tesMng of a chlorinated
waste.
Ceramics and Ceramic/Alloy Combina>ons • Results are not encouraging exhibited poor resistance to chlorinated
waste streams over a wide pH (2-‐12) and temperature (350-‐500˚C) range.

PotenMal methodologies for reducing corrosion damage
Reactor Design Modifica>ons • Generally aKempts to reduce exposure to the process fluid and/or • Limit potenMal problems with plugging.
Corrosion Resistant Liners and Coa>ngs • A corrosion resistant liner in conjuncMon with a pressure-‐bearing wall. • Materials may be costly (Pt). • There are conflicMng reports on corrosion of Ti.
Feed Chemistry Control • AlternaMve to or in addiMon to a corrosion resistant liner. • Adjust pH, Cl-‐, and oxidizing condiMons to minimize corrosion. • Develop and use in-‐situ electrodes to monitor and control feed chemistry.

Looking forward…
• There is a significant quantity of military and civilian hazardous waste to destroy.
• SCWO is a promising technology capable of handling many organic wastes.
• Corrosion mitigation is central to the successful operation of a commercial unit.
• No material is likely to be universally applicable to all sections of a SCWO facility.
• Research suggests that feed chemistry modification may help in controlling corrosion.

New engineering systems are just like old ones…we must either select materials of construcMon that are
chemically stable or find ways to protect the.

Why is Corrosion Research Given So liKle AKenMon?
• Metal producers are no longer acMvely involved.
• UniversiMes should be at the leading edge in terms of research, but at present this is at the literal exclusion of contemporary engineering research.
• University research is overwhelmingly out of balance in terms of the support bouMque research at the expense of understanding contemporary engineering problems.
• University faculty follow the research money trail!
• Graduate research students follow the faculty. • The intellectual infrastructure in engineering pracMce is
declining.

Summary
• All materials are subject to environmental degradaMon in service environments
• It follows that systems constructed from such materials must be protected from environmental degradaMon in service
