The implications of chlorine-associated corrosion on the operation of biomass-fired boilers

TLDR
In this paper, the potential corrosion problems associated with burning biomass fuels either alone or in blends with coal, for electricity production are discussed, and the most severe corrosion problems in biomass-fired systems are expected to occur due to Cl-rich deposits formed on superheater tubes.

Corrosion mechanism of Fe(Ni)25CrAIX type alloys in a bioxidant environment at elevated temperature

TL;DR: In this article, the corrosion performance of several Fe(Ni)25CrAIX (X - e.g. Zr and Hf) type alloys has been examined in a bioxidant, oxygen/chlorine, environment (pO2 ∼ 10−15 Pa and pCl2 ∼10−5 Pa) at 800°C.
