This book is an impartial, state-of-the-art guide to the use of materials in potable and fresh waters, seawater, and industrial waters. Expertise and extensive experience in materials (Michael Davies) and water (P.J.B. Scott) combine to provide a unique guide for successful decision making in oil and gas, petroleum refining, chemical processing, shipping and boating, pulp and paper, power utility plants, coastal civil engineering, and water supply and treatment industries. It is a valuable reference source for engineers, managers, plant operators, and inspectors involved in materials decisions, corrosion prevention and troubleshooting equipment, and installation in aqueous environments. It is also invaluable as an industrial training tool and for university level courses in materials engineering, corrosion, and process engineering.
