Inspection History of UR-211
TA-2000 &TA-2001 :
Jointly executed by FFBL & Stamicarbon
Revealed no major abnormality
UT of Liner revealed a corrosion rate of about 0.05 mm/yr.
TA-2004
Siphon jet skirts were installed
Minor repair of pinholes defects was carried out using pencil grinder
TA-2006
Minor repairs were carried out as previously
But increase corrosion rate of liner observed as compared to previous years
TA-2007
To confirm the thickness monitoring results achieved during TA-2006
Increase in corrosion rate i.e. 0.15mm/yr and 0.213 mm/yr
Minimum thickness of 7.41mm at top compartment
Inspection History of UR-211
TA-2009
Inspection and Eddy Current thickness measurement by
Stamicarbon
SIIC cracks found by Eddy Current testing just below the top
head to shell circumferential weld
Surface was ground smooth using pencil grinder. DPT
revealed cracking and subsequent grinding indicated the
~4mm deep crack

Strain Induced Integranular Cracking (SIIC)
SIIC is an electrochemical corrosion mechanism in
combination with deformation (strain).
The following conditions are a pre-requisite for occurrence of these
cracks :
The presence of an electrolyte as a result of condensation of
ammonium carbamate in the gas phase or liquid phase. If the liquid
level is extremely high, such cracks are also observed in the liquid
phase because an electrolyte is always present.
Plastic deformation (=strain) of the liner material. Plastic deformation
of the liner plates will always occur during start up of the plant
(heating the synthesis section with steam).
Other conditions can enhance this failure mode, such as :
inferior liner material and/or weld quality ;
presence of chloride and/or sulphur in the porous oxide layer ;
an increased gap between the liner plates and the shell ; and
large number of pressure cycles (start/stops).
