The world s increasing demand for energy and the need to control carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, the main gas responsible for global warming, requires development of new technologies to produce energy with lower CO2 emission. Use of alternative renewable sources in energy production is increasing, but not enough to meet the demand. Thus, fossil fuel is still necessary. In this context, oxyfuel together with carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) arises as an alternative to conventional coal-fired power plants, because it does not emit CO2 during energy production. The oxyfuel process differs from the conventional process by burning pure O2 and recycled fuel gas instead of air. Therefore, a CO2-H2O-rich atmosphere is formed in the boiler, increasing the materials corrosion in contact with this atmosphere. The objective of this work was to investigate the high temperature corrosion behavior of iron alloys subjected to single and dual conditions in CO2-rich atmospheres. Model and commercial iron alloys with different chromium, cobalt and carbon content were exposed to atmospheres containing CO2, H2O and SO2 at 600 Celsius degrees for 1000 hours. The samples were analyzed in single atmosphere condition, when all sample faces were exposed to the same gas, and in dual atmosphere condition where the samples were exposed to water vapor on one side, to a gas on the other, creating an hydrogen gradient in the sample. The samples were characterized using TEM, SEM, EDS and light microscope. Results showed different corrosion rates according to chemical composition and microstructure of the samples and gases. Results showed that corrosion is higher in dual condition than in single condition. Most of the model alloys presented less corrosion than commercial steel VM12 in CO2-rich atmospheres. However, steel VM12 presented better results when exposed to water vapor.
