Key Takeaways
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment developed a standardized protocol for corrosion testing procedures that is available as a resource for utilities.
Immersion testing can be used to evaluate corrosion mechanisms, determine optimal corrosion control treatment, and examine the impacts of source water or treatment changes, while greatly reducing the cost and complexity compared with pipe loop testing.
Exploring various resources, such as academic research, first‐hand utility experience, and water industry guidelines, can help a utility select the corrosion testing approach that best suits its needs and circumstances.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
