Cathodic Protection for Tank Bottoms by oussama somrani is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The soil side corrosion of surface storage tank bottoms has become a concern in recent years due to environmental and safety regulations. While cathodic protection was used historically to prevent corrosion of external surfaces, tank bottom corrosion is now a greater issue as tanks age over 25 years. Corrosion occurs due to the development of cells between the steel surface and millscale coating from manufacturing. The millscale acts as a cathode that accelerates corrosion through its electrical conductivit
