The purpose of this paper is to present specific case histories where corrosion of boiler internal surfaces occurred both while the unit was in service and during idle periods where the potential for corrosion existed but was not recognized. It is hoped that through this presentation the users of industrial boilers will be made more aware of the potential for specific corrosion problems, their possible causes, and how to take the proper corrective action as outlined in these case histories.
