Three comments:
(1) My request for the literature review was from 2018 -- but thanks for putting it on the Project community site.
(2) I do not think that having individual companies modify the test rack will be helpful in comparison of site corrosion. We need to have the same conditions of testing - flow rates, position of samples, number of samples etc to develop a complete, accurate test program.
(3) I still believe that using a test rack similar to the one previously used would give us much better, more reproducible results. In the past, I (and a number of nickel producers) have used such racks to determine a comparison of corrosion resistance of multiple metallic alloys in flue gas desulfurization systems thruout the US -- with excellent reproducible results reported in numerous NAS (now AMPP) papers. These racks result in exposure of clean surfaces as well as crevices so that detailed corrosion information can be obtained on a lot of alloys.

posted meeting minutes and attachments
action items submitted by Karen need more detail to move forward on:
Actions
- Send survey by the end of march - who to send?
- Call a meeting with Curtis to discuss adapting the rack
- Dale to purchase the rack and ship it to Eastman - NO see below:
- need proposal / quote for purchase - these items are typically procured by contractor performing the work / testing
- Dale can inquire local plastic fabrication shop (SG&P in Freeport TX) and Nalco for proposals for team review - need a diagram of the test rack for proposal to local plastic fabricator
- Need information on the intended flow capacity of the rack - see Nalco literature:
