TCPC 2015 - Thailand Corrosion and Prevention Conference 2015

Corrosion has a major economic and environmental impact on all facets of steel infrastructures in various industries. In addition to severe damage and threats to public safety, corrosion can result in downtime and/or shutdown of operation, and requires extensive repair and replacement of failed assets. The annual corrosion cost by 3 to 4% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has been reported for industrialized countries. For Thailand, the corrosion cost up to 2% of GDP has been predicted by the experts.
Basically, corrosion is an electrochemical phenomenon resulting from material-environment interaction. Therefore, corrosion prevention and control is highly complex, and involves extensive expertise and significant resources. Experience and knowledge sharing among individuals and societies across nation and global can be a key element to enhance technical capability of personnel to deal with corrosion concerns in industries, in particular oil-gas and power generation. Additionally, R&D is recognized as a powerful tool to bring the industry innovative means for corrosion prevention and control of components and facilities.
This conference aims to establish a platform for gathering and sharing information on corrosion prevention technology among delegates with academic and industrial backgrounds. It will help to promote collaboration between national institutes and societies in order to sustain our green society with reliable infrastructure for Thai industries.
