In present, most of metallic structures(gas pipeline, oil pipeline, water pipeline, etc) are running parallel with subway and power line in seoul. Moreover subway system and power line make a stray current due to electrical corrosion on metallic structures. The owner of metallic structures has a burden of responsibility for the protection of corrosion and the prevention against big accident such as gas explosion or soil pollution and so on. So, they have to measure and analyze the data about P/S(Pipe to Soil) potential due to stray current of subway system. In this paper, results of development about Real-time Wireless Remote Monitoring System for Stray Current of Subway System are presented.

Generally. the owners of the facilities adopt CP(Cathodic Protection) Systems to protect the corrosion accidents previously. The developed countries have secured the standard of CP systems through the various researches and consolidation of the rules. So in the first stage, I had been studied the international standards: JSCE, NACE Standard. ASTM, DNV, Australian Standard etc. and standardized the CP systems about items, performance. specifications and so on. In this thesis, I have been studying the results of standardization of performance test methods of CP system to apply in Korea.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트내 철근의 방식성을 검토하기 위하여 실제 구조물과 유사하도록 콘크리트 대형 패널 실험체를 제작하였으며, 실험체 제작시 콘크리트 내부에 염화물을 혼입하여 음극전기방식 공법을 도입한 실험체와 공법을 도입하지 않은 실험체의 염화물에 의한 철근방식효과를 비교 분석하였다. 실험에 사용된 음극전기방식은 비소모성 티타늄 양극망을 사용한 외부전원방식이며, 최근에 국내에서도 사용실적이 늘고 있는 리모트 모니터링 시스템을 적용하여 구조물의 유지관리상 연속성 있게 콘크리트내 철근의 방식정도를 확인할 수 있는지에 대해 검토하였다.

The second phase of the national program for fusion energy development in Korea starts from 2012 for design and construction of the fusion DEMO reactor. Radiological assessment for the fusion reactor is one of the key tasks to assure its licensability and the starting point of the assessment is determination of the source terms. As the first effort, the activities of the coolant due to activated corrosion product (ACP) were estimated. Data and experiences from fission reactors were used, in part, in the calculations of the ACP concentrations because of lack of operating experience for fusion reactors. The MCNPX code was used to determine neutron spectra and intensities at the coolant locations and the FISPACT code was used to estimate the ACP activities in the coolant of the fusion DEMO reactor. The calculated specific activities of the most nuclides in the fusion DEMO reactor coolant were 2-15 times lower than those in the PWR coolant, but the specific activities of $^{57}Co$ and $^{57}Ni$ were expected to be much higher than in the PWR coolant. The preliminary results of this study can be used to figure out the approximate radiological conditions and to establish a tentative set of radiological design criteria for the systems carrying coolant in the design phase of the fusion DEMO reactor.

The owner of metallic structures has a burden of responsibility for the protection of corrosion and the prevention against big accident such as gas explosion or soil pollution and so on.

In this paper, results of development about data logger apparatus for measurement stray current of subway and power line are presented.

There are two cases when the life of a sacrificial anode is shortened from the designed life: one case results from self-corrosion of the anode due to contamination by sea water in the other case, however, electrical current to protect some given steel piles overflows to protect other, adjacent non-protected steel piles. In this study, the variation of polarization potential of nine steel piles, being protected cathodically and with anode-producing current between anode and steel piles, was investigated. Parameters were varied, such as the eighth and ninth steel piles either connected electrically or not, and whether the ninth steel pile was protected by another sacrificial anode or not. The current produced by the sacrificial anode decreased when the ninth steel pile was cathodically protected by the anode of another pile. However, produced current increased when the ninth steel pile was not connected to another anode. The study concludes that the life of a sacrificial anode can be prolonged or shortened depending on whether adjacent steel piles are cathodically protected or not.

Pre-construction primer (PCP), or shopprimer, have been applied to steel plates to control temporary corrosion during ship fabrication. For surface preparation at ship block stage, in common shipyard practices, welding beads, burnt and rusted areas shall be blasted or power tool cleaned and the contamination such as zinc salt shall be removed with blasting or power tool. Whereas, the sound film of PCP needs not to be removed or roughened as the paint having good compatibility with PCP is used for the first coat. In many cases, however, full blasting or sweep blasting on the sound PCP treated block assemblies was requested. There still has been argument about the legitimacy of this practice, thus, it is critical to evaluate the quality of the coating system applied on the sound PCP retained condition, comparing with the one applied on the full blasted or sweep blasted condition. In this study, two different epoxy systems for water ballast tank were applied on the surfaces with sound PCP condition, full blasted condition, and sweep blasted condition. Coating performances such as durability, anti-corrosion, cathodic disbondment resistance were evaluated. The test results clearly indicated that the sound film of PCP needed not to be removed or roughened as the paint having good compatibility with PCP based on inorganic zinc silicate.

Highly corrosion resistance performance of CrAlSiN coatings were obtained by applying ultrathin $Al_2O_3$ thin films using atomic layer deposition (ALD) method. CrAlSiN coatings were prepared on Cr adhesion layer/SUS304 substrates by a hybrid coating system of arc ion plating and high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) method. And, ultrathin $Al_2O_3$ passivation layer was deposited on the CrAlSiN/Cr adhesion layer/SUS304 sample to protect CrAlSiN coatings by encapsulating the whole surface defects of coating using ALD. Here, the high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX) analysis revealed that the ALD $Al_2O_3$ thin films uniformly covered the inner and outer surface of CrAlSiN coatings. Also, the potentiodynamic and potentiostatic polarization test revealed that the corrosion protection properties of CrAlSiN coatings/Cr/SUS304 sample was greatly improved by ALD encapsulation with 50 nm-thick $Al_2O_3$ thin films, which implies that ALD-$Al_2O_3$ passivation layer can be used as an effect barrier layer of corrosion.

The Cathodic Protection system which is usually applied to marine metallic structures in domestic is Sacrificial Anode Method. In general. low efficiency rectifiers are using in the field of Cathodic Protection. These rectifiers are not only low efficiency but also manual type which is not able to control remotely. In this paper we describe the high efficiency rectifier used the high speed switching method for optimum corrosion control of marine metallic structures.
