Description

In this paper, the author would like to discuss NRC generic communications issued to all operating nuclear power plants for service water systems relative to corrosion (including microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and typical operational events involving system failure and degradations as a result of corrosion and fouling. Lessons can be learned from the unforeseen experience of others, and knowing and understanding these experiences can improve the performance of safety-related service water systems
