A review of ultrasonic tomography for monitoring the corrosion of steel pipes

Infrastructure development is currently taking place rapidly. designing a dwelling or premises is currently implemented quickly while controlling construction costs in addition to providing guidance on planned development. the architecture uses steel as a main part of the pile and drainage system is connected from sources to consumer. this study focuses on steel pipes that are exposed to corrosion. this problem is considered serious because steel pipes are used not only for the delivery of water supply but also for the delivery of gas and oil to the oil and gas sector,where the same problem occurs. impacts of the problem of corrosion of steel pipes contribute to the risk of loss to the owner of the premises or industry. an overview of leakage problems,which cause a reduction in the volume of materials or hazards to the environment and consumers,is given,and the occurrence of corrosion in pipelines is evaluated. monitoring methods use ultrasonic tomography as a major contribution to the implementation of monitoring and assessing the status of pipe durability and ability. this paper looks at the concept of diverse ultrasonic tomography inventions used to assist the process of monitoring of the level of pipeline capacity that will suffer corrosion. © 2015 penerbit utm press. all rights reserved.
