Plain-English summary
Problem
How can corrosion in underground pipelines and conduits be prevented?
Solution
turbine-induced Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) system for metallic pipelines utilizes the kinetic energy of fluid flow within the pipeline to generate electrical power for corrosion protection.
Key novelty
The system includes a turbine installed within a pipeline appurtenance, such as an air release valve, allowing operation without pipeline drainage or decompression.
Applications
