ASME ( American Society of Mechanical Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional association that, in its own words, "promotes the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe" via "continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization, a lobbying organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today multidisciplinary and global.

Corrosion and Deposits From Combustion of Solid Waste—Part III: Effects of Sulfur on Boiler Tube Metals
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Sulfur plays a significant part in the corrosion of heat transfer surfaces in municipal incinerators. The nature of the deposits and the extent of corrosion on simulated boiler tube surfaces ...
Corrosion and Deposits From Combustion of Solid Waste—Part IV: Combined Firing of Refuse and Coal
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Combined firing of processed municipal refuse with coal has been investigated in a stoker-fired boiler. The refuse preparation consisted of shredding, magnetic separation of metals, and air ...
Corrosion and Deposits From Combustion of Solid Waste—Part V: Firing of Refuse With High-Sulfur Coal
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The utilization of municipal refuse as a supplementary fuel in a coal-fired power-generating plant has been investigated. The preparation of the solid waste consisted of shredding, ferrous metal ...
Corrosion and Deposits from Combustion of Solid Waste—Part VI: Processed Refuse as a Supplementary Fuel in a Stoker-Fired Boiler
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The utilization of shredded and magnetically separated municipal refuse to supplement high-sulfur coal as fuel in a stoker-fired boiler was investigated, using the facilities of the Columbus, ...
Erosion-Corrosion Effects on Boiler Tube Metals in a Multisolids Fluidized-Bed Coal Combustor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Metal wastage of boiler tube materials has been measured during combustion of coal in a laboratory scale fast fluidized bed. In the multisolids fluidized-bed process, high-sulfur coal and limestone ...
Radioactive Sulfur Oxide Studies of External Corrosion Reactions on Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Radioactive sulfur-35 has been used as a tracer to determine the roles of SO2 and SO3 in reactions leading to formation of alkali iron trisulfates. The reactivity of 30 ppm SO3 with surfaces ...
Sulfur Oxide Reactions: Radioactive Sulfur and Microprobe Studies of Corrosion and Deposits
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The reactions of SO2 and SO3 with catalytic surfaces containing iron oxides, alone and in combination with various sodium salts, have been investigated. The SO3 concentration gradients above the ...
Erratum: “Sulfur Oxide Reactions: Radioactive Sulfur and Microprobe Studies of Corrosion and Deposits” (Journal of Engineering for Power, 1968, 90, pp. 38–44)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Corrosion and Deposits from Combustion of Solid Waste—Part VII: Coincineration of Refuse and Sewage Sludge
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Corrosion probe exposures were conducted in the Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, incinerator to determine the effects of burning low-chloride sewage sludge with municipal refuse. Probes having controlled ...
Corrosion and Deposits From Combustion of Solid Waste: Part 2—Chloride Effects on Boiler Tube and Scrubber Metals
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Chlorides play an important role in corrosion of heat-transfer surfaces and wet-scrubbers in municipal incinerators. The nature of the deposits and the extent of corrosion have been investigated ...
