Description
This article characterizes the effect of sulfides on the longevity of home plumbing and examines possible strategies to reduce copper in household water. As the corrosion rate increases, the rate of by-product release and of pitting failures may also increase. Because these problems are of concern to utilities and homeowners, experimental results are reported that delineate the role of sulfides in these problems. A literature review and case studies highlight the problem in practical situations. Includes 21 references, tables, figures.
