A recently released two-year breakthrough
study estimates the annual direct cost of corrosion in the United States to
be $276 billion. While this is a sizeable number,
larger than many of the world's economies, it has been estimated that 25-30%
of the total, or $70-80 billion, could be saved by using state-of-the-art
corrosion management practices. In addition to the cost savings, corrosion
can result in public and industrial safety issues.
CC Technologies (Dublin, Ohio) conducted the research in a cooperative effort
with the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA). NACE
International - The Corrosion Society worked with Congressional representatives
to secure $1 million in federal funding for the study.
The study identified the direct cost of corrosion in five major sectors of the economy - infrastructure, utilities, transportation, production & manufacturing, and government.
