Cathodic Protection System Anode
What is Magnesium anode ? Where should it be used ?
The corrosion of metal in salt or fresh water or in
soil can be prevented by the use of galvanic anodes in a cathodic
protection system.
Magnesium anodes are used in such systems, most
commonly to protect underground gas, oil and water pipelines.
When the anode's cable is attached to a pipeline or
other underground structure, a galvanic cell is created in which
electrons flow from the anode to the structure, thereby protecting
the structure.
The anode corrodes instead of the structure and must
be replaced after a certain period of time that depends on the type
of structure that is being protected, the size and grade of anodes
that are used, and the corrosivity and resistivity of the
surrounding soil.
In addition to pipelines, magnesium anodes are often
used to protect propane, water and chemical storage tanks, areas of
ships and port facilities that are not in direct contact with sea
water, power plants and irrigation systems.
