This project addresses the corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete structures caused by carbonation and chloride attack. It explores a new electrochemical remediation method that combines chloride removal and realkalisation with nanoparticle injection to enhance concrete properties and prevent further corrosion.
Corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete structures is a worldwide problem and affects a large number of infrastructures.
Two major causes connected to corrosion of reinforcing steel are the carbonation and chloride attack.
Concrete carbonation produces a carbonated surface layer in which the pore solution pH value is depressed to near-neutral levels. A fall in pH to values below 10 at the steel can render the steel passive film thermodynamically unstable and thus cause steel corrosion.
