IWC  23-52: The use of Definitive Screening Design (DSD) to Understand the Impact of Water Composition, Operating Conditions and Non-Phosphorus Corrosion Inhibitor Dosages on Carbon Steel Corrosion in Circulating Cooling Water Systems
Stan Baskov, Haliburton Muliti-Chem

Definitive Screening Design (DSD) was used to better understand the effects of temperature, pH, calcium and magnesium hardness and various concentrations of chlorides and sulfates on the inhibition effectiveness of non-phosphorus, corrosion inhibitor on mild steel. Statistical analysis indicates that temperature and pH are the only variables that significantly impact the rate of corrosion of mild steel. No significant difference in corrosion rate was detected during studies under various hardness, chlorides and sulfates concentrations.

IWC 23-35: Film Forming Products:  Application, Corrosion Reduction, Layup Benefits, and Heat Transfer Improvement
George Patrick, Veolia

Film Forming Products (FFP) have been used in boiler/steam cycles for many years, but the benefits were limited because the application was difficult.  In the last decade, the application of FFP has improved using volatile FFP to simplify the application.   The benefits of the simplified application is carbon steel corrosion reduction in the boiler and steam system during operation and layup.  Other benefits include heat transfer improvement, chemical reduction, and simplified equipment layup.
