4 FAQs about Specifications and models of photovoltaic support anti-corrosion pipes

How a solar energy system can solve the problem of corrosion?

In an effort to solve the serious problem of corrosion of pipelines and underground steel structures, a kind of electrochemical anti-corrosion system based on solar energy has been developed. The system uses photovoltaic technology and forced current cathodic protection technology to effectively protect the metal from corrosion.

Can a photovoltaic module be used for cathodic protection?

In this article, the use of a photovoltaic module for cathodic protection (CP) of various metal structures, all pipelines located underground and in water, in particular underground water pipelines, gas and oil products, technological pipelines, was experimentally investigated.

How solar PV system can protect underground steel pipelines?

The prototype of solar PV system for impressed current cathodic protection has been completed. Besides giving continuous supply during interrupted supply, solar PV reduces the cost of commissioning and maintenance. Thus, the underground steel underground pipeline is continuously protected.

Can a photovoltaic pipeline be connected to a cathodic protection station?

Two samples of the pipeline were connected within 6 months to a cathodic protection station powered by a solar module, and two samples of the pipeline not connected to this system. The schematic diagram of the photovoltaic cathodic protection system is shown in Fig. 2.
