Hydrostatic test of storage tanks using seawater and corrosion
After the tanks have been manufactured or repaired, a hydrostatic test is generally carried out with freshwater. Due to lack of freshwater, seawater may be used as an alternative. However, seawater can cause damage to storage tanks. In view of this, the corrosion behavior of welded carbon steel in seawater was investigated in this study.
