Metal Dusting of Heat-Resistant Alloys

Zusatztext

Metal dusting is insidious and can occur suddenly and unpredictably leading to plant emergency shutdowns and, therefore, huge production losses. Indeed, metal dusting failures cost many millions of dollars globally. Interestingly, the US Department of Energy has estimated a financial impact of about $220-290 million that could be saved annually in hydrogen production plants alone, if the limitations caused by metal dusting could be circumvented.
