...ABSTRACT ABSTRACT A close coupled mixed metal oxide (MMO) anode, grid or concentric ring, cathodic protection (CP) system is a state-of-the-art technique for corrosion prevention of the soil-side bottom of an aboveground storage tank (AST) resting on sand pads. The regulatory requirement...

... Abstract Mixed metal oxide on a titanium substrate (MMO/Ti) is widely used as anode material for the cathodic protection of storage tank bottoms due to its advantages such as low consumption rate, long service life and ideal current distribution. However, with the elapse of service time...

... ABSTRACT The excellent stability of mixed metal oxide (MMO) coated titanium anodes have been used in the cathodic protection industry for almost 30 years. MMO coated titanium anodes are used in various environments, including seawater, brackish water, fresh water, carbon backfill, and concrete...

... in providing MMO anode system consisting of a series of concentric loops in a narrow 300mm space between the tank bottom and a polyethylene liner placed under the new bottom constructed. The concentric loops were closely spaced to provide desired current distribution and to optimize the “throwing power...

... generation of Mixed-Metal Oxide (MMO) products, a water-based fluid system with outstanding solids suspension properties, but very high shear-thinning, that still screens easily even at high flow rates and through fine screens. It contains no components that can harm the environment, so the waste generated...

... protection conditions after only 10 years. A retrofit was planned in 1987 using an impressed current system with LIDA TSA(?) 1 MMO anodes impressed current system, and the system was successfully commissioned in 1987. Protection conditions were achieved and continuously maintained from start-up for 18 years...

... ABSTRACT Not all mixed metal oxide (MMO) coated titanium anodes are the same. MMO coatings have different compositions, some of which perform better for specific applications. Certain environments can cause increased wear rates or anode fouling. The performance of iridium oxide and ruthenium...
