Track: Renewables
This session will cover the aggressive chemical and thermal conditions that accelerate corrosion in geothermal systems and the latest innovations to mitigate and prevent corrosion in these extremes. The symposium will consider papers on advanced materials and coating technologies that enhance durability and performance of geothermal infrastructure, from wells and pipelines to power plant components. Best practices for monitoring and maintenance and case studies that demonstrate strategies for mitigating corrosion-related failures and extending the service life of geothermal assets are encouraged.
