Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP) in Power Generation
ORP in Power Generation
Oxidation-reduction potential (ORP or REDOX) monitoring and control is a required parameter throughout the power generation process. With proper baseline data and understanding of the water matrix, ORP is a useful tool to prevent catastrophic feed water corrosion in ferrous and similar piping systems. It is desirable to maintain a constant reducing environment in this process water (oxygen scavenging treatment) and ORP monitoring provides assurance. For example, nuclear power plants use ORP to control the addition of hydrogen to minimize corrosion and cracking in the reactors.
