3 benefits of corrosion control

Corrosion can be a difficult issue to deal with once it has spread. In pipes and storage tanks, corrosion can cause containment materials to deteriorate over time. This can cause significant damage that leads to leaks. Especially in tanks that contain strong corrosives, it is important to use high-resistance liners.

Corrosion is a natural process that occurs when metal interacts with its environment — the metal oxidizes, making it less durable. Types of corrosion include rust. Fortunately, corrosion can be controlled. Here are three key ways corrosion control can benefit you.

Increased equipment longevity

One of the biggest benefits of corrosion control is giving your equipment a longer life span. When metal is protected from corrosion, it can last much longer. This reduces the time and cost involved with repairing equipment affected by corrosion. Over time, corrosion control can result in significant cost savings. It also reduces any downtime for repair that might affect your equipment operation.

Improved reliability

Equipment that is protected from corrosion will need less maintenance and require fewer repairs. This means you can rely on corrosion-free equipment to get the job done more consistently. Storage tanks with corrosion control are also safer. They are less likely to leak hazardous chemicals, which can keep the workplace around equipment safer. Corrosion control can also help prevent rust contamination inside tanks. In general, controlling corrosion keeps your equipment stable. This leads to reduced risk of accidents and failures.

Enhanced image

Corrosion control does more than protect your equipment, staff and budget — it can also protect your image. Rust and other visible forms of corrosion can give your equipment an unpleasant appearance, giving a negative impression of your organization. By controlling corrosion, you can maintain the appearance and visual appeal of your systems. This projects a positive image.
