BAC Corrosion Control A/S

Metal objects submerged in seawater or any other kind of electrolyte, such as ships, platforms, offshore windmill turbines, underground tanks or pipelines, are protected against corrosion using sacrificial anodes which are attached to the object. Sacrificial anodes consist of less noble metal than the structure to be protected, such as zinc or magnesium, and are electrolytically decomposed – or ‘sacrificed’ – while the object remains free of damage. A European leader in this highly effective method in the constant fight against corrosion, which is known as cathodic protection, is BAC Corrosion Control A/S.
